Mozilla employees ask new CEO Brendan Eich to step down

[Guest]

If Mozzila forces this man to step down due to his social/political views it can count that one user(me) will never use their product. This is wrong in so many levels. Also about donations, do you have a list of political views which I need to conform before donating? I can also send you my political/social views for revision as well as donation list, that you can refund if you don't want to be "tainted" by it.

Time to download Firefox in support of the new CEO !

Will either personal viewpoint mean the browser work better than Chrome? Probably not.

And I'm sure you would oppose firing a person in all circumstances if he/she has a same sex partner?

I don't like how you're sticking words in my mouth. In all circumstances? No, of course I wouldn't give them a blanket pass to do whatever they want without fear of being terminated.

- If he/she is homosexual and is an axe murderer, I would not oppose firing them.
- If he/she is homosexual and tried to blow up the moon, I would not oppose firing them.
- If he/she is homosexual and is guilty of harassment of others either inside or outside of work, I would not oppose firing them.
- If he/she is homosexual and routinely mishandles or comes unprepared to press conferences, I would not oppose firing them.
- If he/she is homosexual and clubs my mailbox, I would not oppose firing them.
- Et cetera.

Analysis: Circumstances for firing homosexual employees and CEOs are the same as for heterosexuals: when they've broken the law. Brenden Eich broke no law, and as a matter of fact, supported a bill which BECAME a law (by majority popular vote).

Say it with me: "witch hunt."
