I think banning his attendance might be going a bit far. Don't allow him to perform/DJ, but there's really no reason to deny him attending altogether. Even 2 Gryphon isn't banned from attendance at most cons, even ones that made it clear he wouldn't get stage time. There will almost certainly be those attending who share his political views without the notoriety. I'm not sure he'd have gone without being able to have stage time. He's kind of notorious for begging travel and lodging expenses.
On the other hand, DenFur is likely to be short staffed just like all the other cons so far this year. They may not have wanted the potential for more drama than they've already had to deal with. Ultimately it's their choice and I don't think they are going to get too much pushback from anyone they'd care about on this.
