No, they stayed home 'cause, " If I can't gear up, so I look like a real soldier or open-carry my highly customized AK-47 which I built from a stock-box SKS, but now it looks cool, why bother going?".

If they can't wear their costumes they just look like a bunch of frustrated, pudgy, middle-aged white dudes. What's the point to that?
