Ben Jackson (Shown in the photo) is a musician who has gained great notoriety in the My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic fan community for constant online harassment towards people for petty reasons. These reasons include not liking their constructive criticism or simply being friends or family with people he doesn't like. Horse News, a website that reports on drama in the community, has made 3 separate articles regarding his harassment, which links will be proved below.

Christopher Smith, also a musician, has a series called "The Slaughtering" where he reviews musicians in the fandom in both a constructive and satirical manner. He did a negative, but constructive review on Ben Jackson. In response, Jackson harassed Smith, his friends, and even his family over social media. He has made racist and threatening remarks. He has also been at this since 2015. Even when people block or ignore him, he always finds a way to find contact with them again (Usually by creating new accounts) to continue his harassment.
Ben Jackson has recently crossed a major, and possibly legal, line when he contacted Smith's coworkers and spammed their emails and left bad reviews around the internet in response to what is simply a critique video. This has resulted in Smith getting fired from his job, which is effecting his livelihood greatly.
Ben jackson has gone way too far and this matter should not be taken lightly. He is clearly toxic and should be kept out of fandom events, especially conventions. Simply ignoring him will not help. Please join us in ending this ordeal and to keep his toxicity out of our community. His attitude and actions have no place in our community events. If you feel anything should be added to this petition, please contact [email protected]. Thank you in advance for helping.

AWD does not deserve to be around social medias if all he really wants to do is ruin people's lives, especially going as far as to getting them out of jobs and harassing their families, this is not tolerated, and I agree that he should not be allowed to be near our fandoms and communities with his toxicity.
I'm a friend of stallion slaughter as well as someone who enjoys the content of the music scene the fandom provides. I cannot accept that this person conducts themselves in this manor and knowingly and willingly attacks and harms others.
Though I've never spoken with him in person, I've seen how people I'm following have been affected by his actions. Who knows what will happens if someone ticks him off in a convention hall?
This dude straight up lies about many things, proof has been shown in multiple places, he has gotten someone fired from their job because of this, to let him into conventions would be dangerous for him as anyone who recognized him would have very choice words if not actions.
Dude harassed my friends, my family, and my girl friend for years. With death threats and sexual comments directed at my sister, mom, and girlfriend. Seriously keep him away from conventions for the kids sake.
This guy is a man child who cannot take even the smallest constructive criticism. He shouldn't be anywhere near good people.
Even though I am not a member of this community, I can say that, after having done my own research, I am of the belief he, and other individuals with negativity of this caliber, should not be permitted on convention sites or any other community congregations, since those individuals (referring to Mr. Jackson and others alike) cannot be trusted to behave themselves in a socially acceptable manner with attendees before, during, or after the event.

This man goes out of his way to bully/threaten/harass/demean everyone he can for any reason he can. I help run several conventions in Central and South Florida and he isn't allowed into or on the property of any. I hope to see more conventions take action against this vile person.
