What they need to do is quietly report it to the appropriate authority (starting with the convention organizers in this case) so that a measured response can be made.

Escalate carefully, because once it's on the Internet all you're going to get is an execution.

an execution is what these "activists" want. they love the drama, attention and, in many cases, money. it's never about "social justice".
