<br />
<blockquote>
<div>SAN FRANCISCO (Reuters) - Mozilla Chief Executive Brendan Eich has stepped down, the company said on Thursday, after an online dating service urged a boycott of the company's web browser because of a donation Eich made to opponents of gay marriage.</div>
</blockquote>Mr. Eich must have done something truly terrible to stoke the ire of the normally quiet, unassuming 2-3 percent of the population that is gay. Perhaps he stood in front of the houses of rich homosexuals like <a href="http://www.ihatethemedia.com/seui-buses-protesters-bankers-homes">SEIU thugs bussed protesters to bankers houses</a>. Or maybe he stood outside the funeral of some homosexuals and shouted about how &quot;God hates fags&quot; like those crazy Westboro Baptists at military funerals. Or maybe he Tweeted how much he hated &quot;Will &amp; Grace&quot;.<br />
<br />
Or maybe not:<br />
<br />
<blockquote>
<div>Eich donated $1,000 in 2008 in support of California's Proposition 8, which banned gay marriage in the state until it was struck down by the Supreme Court in June.</div>
</blockquote>So the Supreme Court recently <a href="http://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/supreme-court-strikes-down-limits-on-federal-campaign-donations/2014/04/02/54e16c30-ba74-11e3-9a05-c739f29ccb08_story.html">struck down a law that limited campaign contributions</a> legally (Democrats have done it illegally for years, which is why they are so angry), but if you don't give that money to the right causes (save the whales, green energy, subsidizing Melissa Ethridge CDs), then it doesn't matter - you are the enemy. He gave a small amount of money (for Mr. Eich, $1,000 is a small amount) and now he is the subject of the Left's 2-Minute Hate.<br />
<br />
And to add insult to injury, what started this all was that a dating site that I have never heard of urged users to boycott the Mozilla browser, Firefox, which Mozilla doesn't charge for - like all browsers, it's free.<br />
<br />
The Leftist's war on common sense and individuality continues unabated.<br />";s:6:"format";s:1:"2";}}}
