User:Chase_me_ladies,_I'm_the_Cavalry is a member of "The Armed Forces of the Crown" (ie the Royal Navy) and a wikipedia admin on OTRS duty. He seems to have cocked this one up by taking at 100% face value an OTRS complaint by professional conspiracy theorist Isreal Shamir that User:RolandR was using Wikipedia to try to get him assassinated. Can you really enforce BLP by libelling an editor?

I don't know if England's answer to Captain Crunch is aware of this conversation, but this photo is now on his user page:

I am not certain what he is doing in this photo, but I get the impression (based on his non-military haircut and the blurry presence of the man in the pink shirt and white hat in the background) he is engaged in some sort of a carnival game -- most likely the one where you shoot a water rifle into a plastic clown's mouth and inflate a balloon in an attempt to win a stuffed toy.
