Here are some more posts that supported Brendan, from employees and
prominent members of the Mozilla comunity, and were posted before he
resigned:

Note that some of these were from LGBTQ employees who basically said
"I think it's terrible that Brendan donated to Prop 8, but I'm willing
to support him as CEO nonetheless".

It is true that a handful Mozilla employees called for his
resignation. But they were a tiny fraction. Alas, controversy garners
attention, so that tiny fraction got much more media exposure than the
larger group that supported Brendan.
