Tourette Syndrome at the Bafta Awards

I just read this:

I can't decide what I think about the responses.

If a person usually uses the 'N' word as a tic, then maybe them not being in the audience would have been best at it's a very unpleasant and offensive word.

But must they have been there with regard to the awards anyway, so there wasn't really a choice to make for the organisers?  Should they be excluded?

There is obviously no intention for offence and the tic is unable to be controlled.

What do you think?
