“This means the vendors will get refunds, the attendees who bought tickets will get refunds, and the right to bear arms has not been infringed.”

Reed will also lose all the money they paid out for the venue. This is a big financial loss.

They may also get sued by the vendors who signed up. A class action suit.

Whoever made the decision to ban black rifles should be canned immediately.

But at the same time, those groups who have been utilizing Reed to manage their shows of any kind should send the packing! It looks as though they bought out Cahners to get into the US market. We don’t need a bunch of British “wankers” as the last poster said managing anything here whether it’s gun-related or not!

Reed Exhibitions returns Norwalk, Connecticut (well, surprise, surprise...but see further below: "British," "Dutch,"...)

But from:
http://www.easternsportshow.com/

"Reed Exhibitions, a divison of Reed Elsevier Inc."

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reed_Elsevier
[Yeah, I know, Wikipedia.]

"Reed Elsevier is a publisher and information provider operating in the science, medical, legal, risk and business sectors. It is listed on several of the world's major stock exchanges."
[...]
"The company came into being in Autumn 1992 as the result of a merger between Reed International, a British trade book and magazine publisher, and the Dutch science publisher Elsevier."
[...]
"The exhibitions division is Reed Exhibitions."
[...]
"Members of the medical and scientific communities, which purchase and use many journals published by Reed Elsevier, agitated for the company to cut its links to the arms trade...On 1 June 2007, Reed Elsevier announced that they would be exiting the Defence Exhibition business during the second half of 2007."
