To Who It May Concern, I am writing to you to express my outrage at the outright persecution and grossly unfair treatment of CEO Brendan Eich. In a country that values as the very first Amendment of our Constitution the right to free speech and the free exercise of religion, to see people persecuted by a vocal minority whose intention is to abrogate the rights of anyone with whom they don't agree is something that everyone should stand against. The Constitution doesn't include a right "not to be offended" by someone else's beliefs or expression of those beliefs. I am sick of these extremists who want to trample on the rights of anyone that says anything they don't like, or who doesn't agree with their political ideology. And for an organization whose ideals are supposed to embody the very idea of an open exchange of ideas and viewpoints in the pursuit of better communication worldwide, it is an irony so damning it's beyond comprehension.
I will be uninstalling Firefox and I hope many others do the same. It is time for people of good conscience to stand up to the bullies and tyrants who hide behind ideals that they clearly do not believe in to try to control the free expression of ideas and association that are the foundation of liberty in our society. The shame is on them and no one else. But I guess the spineless will continue to bow and scrape in front of these spoiled brats who unleash their tantrums in public forums. Well done Mozilla, you have completely lost all credibility in the eyes of the world.
