Oh, and Caveman guy? What the hell was he thinking? Perhaps it was his 'fantasy day out' in his self-perceived open-air L.A.I.R.E. event.

I used to attend board gaming events years ago where they banned nazi (and any military) cosplay decisively - decades ago. Everyone was happy after that. Nationally, we should consider adopting the same approach to militia cosplayers (when you wear military uniforms and gear to any public event which then becomes violent, you could be charged for incitement of violence) - AND - perhaps all public servants at national, state and local levels (All Firemen, police, and all publicly elected officials) should swear an oath to the constitution as well.
