Hell, I said that two pages ago but conservatives wanted to argue that his money is irrelevant.

Because a man supports - in a very low key way btw - traditional marriage, an institution he believes in and does think ought to be changed, he is a bigot? And you - anonymously behind a keyboard - threaten others? What has this world come to.

Bigotry is bad for business. Bigots take note.

Funding an effort to take away legal rights from people and deny them the equal protection of the civil laws because they are homosexual absolutely exposes one as a bigot.

Well, thanks for the advice, but I think I see a different picture than you do. And it's not because I don't "get out" enough.

Good or those who stuck together and accomplished something. They are a good example for others.
Yes, awesome example of hypocrisy. Tolerance is only applied when being forced to side with liberals. You are never called a bully if you are a liberal. You force someone to step down because of his beliefs, but elect a president that had the same beliefs, if you are a liberal.

If gays want freedom than they need to start respecting the freedoms of others.
Exactly. I thought we lived in a free country, where you can vote for and support any candidate or cause you like. So now, your vote might be influenced by the fact that you might lose your job? Naw, nothing like the mafia.

I personally don't care what anyone does in the privacy of their own lives, but I will fight every attempt by the intolerant gay extremists to suppress freedom.

I'd say spending $1000 to promote a bill that "Eliminates the Right of Same-Sex Couples to Marry" was rather 'mean'.

Clearly it's not the company image that Mozilla wanted to project.
You mean an election that was voted on by a majority of the voters in California? Does that mean that more than half of all employees in California should lose their jobs?
