A fan disgusted about what happened and how Emily was kicked out without further investigations.

Agreed, one of my friends were wanting to go to a convention and I sent her a link of this story and she said we'd find something better to do, instead of go somewhere what a women was treated so wrongly. If they don't see where they've done convention goers wrong, Especially Miss. Emily, then Creation Entertainment conventions will not be on my to-do list any time soon.

Mind boggling that Creation would claim that they act on "viable threats that have been vetted" when the 10+ day old tweet put forward as grounds for her ejection and subsequent ban contains no direct threat to anyone at the convention, and is plainly sarcasm (both on its own and when considered in context of the entire twitter conversation it occurred in - a conversation which Creation and security personnel have subsequently had days to review). If a non-threatening tweet can be manipulated in this way against one con attendee (one with a press pass who had no security incidents before this summary ejection no less), it can happen to any Creation con attendee. Not just unjust in this particular case, but should be generally troubling to any potential Creation consumer.

I have a hard time with the idea that the person alleged to be a security threat was then let go to roam freely (if they chose) just as long as it wasn't in any convention areas. Letting that sink in, a person deemed a threat to someone else, was essentially made someone else's issue. How could any attendee feel safe if this kind of 'protocol' is fine. It's hard to see it as kind of SWATTING (just with guest security teams).

To be clear, she was not just banned from ONE convention. She was given a lifetime ban on ALL conventions ran by Creation without ANYONE doing ANY investigation into the false claims reported by unreliable sources.
