In this day and age, people have got to be careful about the things they post on social media. Take it from 20-year-old Carlos Anthony Hollins, the man currently being held on a quarter-million dollar bond after people mistook a joke of his as a massive threat.

"IM NOT GONNA STAND FOR THIS NO. MORE," Hollins wrote last Wednesday (Sept. 2) under the Twitter handle @_TRVPCOCAINE. "TONIGHT WE PURGE ! KILL ALL THE WHITE PPL IN THE TOWN OF LAPLATA #BlackLivesMatter,' he continued on, referencing the popular thriller series.

Some of Carlos' Twitter followers immediately began retweeting him and contacting authorities. Finding it comical, Hollins retweeted everyone who was calling Maryland police and tweeting the F.B.I., lessening his tweet to a simple joke. "Please be aware that @_TRVPCOCAINE is advocating killing all white people in La Plata," one tweeter wrote.

After posting a video of him walking to the police station to clear things up, Hollins was arrested on a threats of mass violence charge. He's now locked up on $250,000 bond.
