If you participate in the strange art known as “cosplay,” you should be forced to give up your citizenship. I don’t care if you’re pretending to be Link, Cloud or Master Chief. So take this guy, Troy Hurtubise. He spent $15,000 of his own money and two years of his life developing what amounts to a real life Halo suit. Sure, he doesn’t specifically call it a Halo suit, but it has all the hallmarks of Master Chief’s wundersuit: it protects him from bullets, explosives and girls. The guy even claims that the suit can be mass produced for as little as $2,000 a pop. Shouldn’t we leave national security matters to the professionals like Jack Bauer?
