Your comment is the equivalent of saying "you can't call Paul Graham anti-death-penalty just because he's demonstrated that he's anti-death-penalty through donating to an anti-death-penalty cause". Brendan sought to have the law declare a group of people unequal on the basis of their sexual orientation. There is absolutely no way to sugarcoat that or make it into a "well he doesn't actually believe this, he just tried to have it written into law for some other reason" thing. And much as I don't eat at Chick-Fil-A, I personally won't directly financially support anything Brendan is involved with. That's called freedom of association, which includes the freedom not to associate with someone, and freedom of speech, which includes the freedom to say I find someone's views or cause repugnant and to argue against them. If you do not understand or do not care for this, perhaps you are in the wrong place.
