In turn, Mr. Tomlinson had this message for Ms. Varney:

“Based on her own public statements and behavior over the last year, Leslie Varney is not only sympathetic to the criminal cult stalking and SWATTing my family, but actively pursues their company, shares their objectives, and minimizes and validates their crimes.

It is Ms. Varney’s contention that anonymous domestic terrorists should be endowed with the unassailable right to unilaterally decide who gets to participate in public life. By blaming the targets of cyberstalking for the actions of the criminals stalking them, and demanding that victims be the only ones to suffer consequences, she justifies and validates all manner of crimes based solely on the personal animosity she feels towards someone she has never met or spoken to.

Rewarding these criminal acts by demanding victims give up their public appearances, signings, panels, and networking opportunities just to appease terrorists makes no one safer. It only ensures these tactics will be repeated and expanded as new targets catch the stlakers’ ire. How will Ms. Varney feel when it’s one of her own clients under their eye, or Ms. Varney herself?

She not only negotiates with terrorists, but actively befriends them and supports their aims. She is as unsafe as she is unprofessional, and anyone who is considering working with her needs to carefully consider the company she keeps and the inherent risks that entails.”

Leslie needs to sue Pat immediately

His aggressive comments are hilarious since everybody realizes he has no leg to stand on. His one and only move is threatening people and acting tough for saying things he doesn't like. Leslie says shit to his face that his industry pals are saying in private.

 

[Racist Google Intern]

Hey Pat! Conventions can decide who they let in or don't! You have 0 recourse.

Thats all pat has are impotent threats with no actual evidence to back up his accusations. Leslie would love to read this.

What a hysterical faggot, are we Nazis? Are we Russian agents? Are we criminals? Are we stlakers? Are we a stalking cult? Are we terrorists?
Pick a fucking lane you fat histrionic faggot

Pat keeping it brief.

 

[Turry Fawks]

So in Pat's fat brain "necessary proof" = "Because I said so, child"?

He is always trying to add more shit to his stories to pump them up. Im glad word is finally getting out to the convention circuit. I can only imagine how their private conversations with him went. I bet they have zero regrets cutting ties with him. He just isnt worth the trouble/frustration. Plus he doesnt actually bring anything to the table. A presentation about Dragon AIDS? Who the fuck wants to sit through that for an hour?

These queers love busybody politicking so much that they are going to go on and on meddling about the "safety" at Penguicon, a convention that is on the verge of shutting down forever with 2025 not happening and the board members quitting.

Quite fitting considering that womanly urge to codify simple matters by committee played a big role in killing Penguicon.

Its like a troubleshooting tree.


Make accusations---if asked for proof---cry "victim blaming"---if banned----threaten to sue
I
I
I---if they believe you----cry louder and make demands

 

[Toothless Enthusiast]

We will always choose to inconvenience one person to provide safety to the whole.

This is why he is an idiot for lying about surviving fifty assassination attempts and being a daily target of domestic terrorists. All conventions could and should easily avoid his histrionics, unnecessary drama and self-inflicted safety concerns by just simply not inviting him lmao

Paul alluded to being the victim of swatting at one point (he specifically said he did not believe it was coming from OnA people lol I'm so sorry Pat). #2 I'm guessing could be Jackie as she was "targeted" by the fake Telegram account.


Or maybe he thinks his great friend Jackson Jones was swatted and in serving a 3 year setnence for pedophilia because atalkers called the police on him.

 

[FranksWirecutters]

That explains why he's been so cranky. His oopsies got doodled.

 

[stealthygeek]

They shut off comments once Rick started heating up. Didn't even get a chance to respond to Leslie directly.

I’m almost positive Jackie said she got swatted, and no one here even bothered acknowledging it
