I am not sure what you think we should have done.

A few (I know of 4) employees of the Mozilla Foundation decided to send
over Twitter a message calling for the resignation of Brendan. We don't
have any power over Twitter, nor can we prevent people from expressing
their opinion.

By the way, since you mention that you were directed here by the blog of
some Mozilla employee – could you point me to that blog?

Thanks,
 David
