Still, it's his opinion. It's a bigoted opinion to think you can deny someone the right to have his bigoted opinion.
This is a serious matter. This opens the door to: You either think this exact same way and have these exact opinions, or you're a bad person and face the consequences.
It was a donation on his own name, not on Mozilla's behalf. It was a donation for lobbying against gay marriage. Pro-gay marriage people donated money too. They are even denying him to play by the rules they are playing by.
It's like playing basketball and you take off your hoop and demand the other team to play normally. It's not fair.
- batiudrami 13y agoI don't have an issue with him holding that opinion (though some people obviously do). I just don't see why his opinion should be allowed to affect others. By contributing money to a campaign which aims to make gay marriage illegal he is actively hurting gay people. That, for me at least, is a problem. It's more like "I think it should be illegal to play without a basketball hoop because then it doesn't make any sense to me, because basketball is defined as requiring a hoop".
