EGX is a London gaming con and was throwing a Tekken tournament, which is a secret past-time of the British 
people if you di'nt know.

The FGC... did NOT approve of this action
Is it really a protest if you aren't willing to go to jail?
Only kitties talk to the convention organizers, we are at the do or die time
I'm actually impressed their social media goon knew anything fighting game related
