Well, after reading the comments, it seems I have come to the consensus of the opposing opinion. It is okay for there to be two sides of this debate, yet only one side has the right to support their side (whether it be with money or by voting) without fear of losing their job. See, that just doesn't sit well with me.
It also seems to be the norm to compare this to him supporting the KKK and Nazis, two groups that hated specific people and even went so far with their hate to murder thousands/millions of them. This comparison can't be more ridiculous, yet seems to be brought up all the time. It also just seems like an attempt to demonize the opposition. From what I have seen, the opponents to gay marriage don't hate gays, they want to preserve what they feel is the sanctity of marriage. They don't want gays carted off to concentration camps. Or whipped. Or lynched. Or gassed. I'm sure many of them encounter gay individuals on an almost weekly basis, and treat them like human beings. Personally, I think we should address the divorce rate if we're talking about the sanctity of marriage, but I still feel they have the right to feel the way they do.
Like I said before, it's not like these people merely voiced their opposition to his views and personally decided to stop using Firefox. No, they wanted him gone. And they weren't going to let up until Mozilla got rid of him. Now, if this behavior is okay to you, my question is, where does it end? Is it okay to go to every company, go through their ranks, find everyone who doesn't support gay marriage, and have them ousted? Get rid of anywhere from 1/3 to 1/2 of the work force in America? If that sounds preposterous to you, then why was it okay to do that in this instance?
