How some one acts outwardly as CEO is in fact one thing the other is when a
person accepts a Job that does not over rule the fact that they are a person
with personal feelings and believes. There is no proof what so ever that
Brendan Eich's beliefs or donation of his personal and private money had
anything to do with his position as CEO of Mozilla or he acted inappropriate as
CEO. I have been a long time Mozilla user and a internet user for a long time
and both of these i believed were a place where different folks with different
views could share those views no matter how much others disagreed with them.
The very same things that give Gay Right activist as well as gay and lesbian
people the right to want, desire, demand and advocate for gay rights and
marriage give the people who oppose those things the very right to oppose them.
The mere fact The gay supports have to resort to bullying and this type of
behavior to push their position in this manner has lost a supporter of
gay rights and marriage, the Fact that the Mozilla Board did not come out
right away and state that there is no evidence of wrong doing or discrimination
by Brendan Eich as CEO and we stand behind him until this is found not to be
true has lost one User. I also hope that the very same situation arises for
Mozilla now from the anti gay rights website by putting up pop up, pages tell
there user to boycott Mozilla. Mozilla claims to be community and for all but
that is not true , that is the case as long as you saying what they agree with
and that is not community. any way I hate IE but bye Mozilla
