I’ve thought all over as well, I guess there is nobody he can sue but it sure seems like he should have that right. “Constructive Dismissal” against Firefox Mozilla? I might write them a letter.

Also, I read up on something similar once before. Was his name published in a newspaper ad or something as supporting Prop 8 with a donation??

Or did the activists find some sort of list of contributors and decide they’d blacklist him economically for that??

Apparently, the IRS leaked to the Human Rights Campaign (gay marriage group) the names of donors to the National Association for Marriage (traditional marriage group).

Okcupid doesn’t have that message up, I’d never heard of them before and dating sites are a dime a dozen. The opening page has you choosing “straight, bisexual, gay”.

“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.”

So again, Breitbart might well be the place to go to find out how the “activists” knew this.

Yes, Breitbart website found out, they found out he made his contribution through “donor lists”, that’s kind of scary if that was the only way they found out about this.

“....This donation came to light in 2012 when activists began to use donor lists from the Prop 8 campaign to “out” supporters of traditional marriage.”

Interestingly, Andrew Sullivan, renown gay columnist says:

“This state of affairs prompted Andrew Sullivan, a gay author and columnist, to essentially accuse gay activists of quashing Eich’s First Amendment rights: “The whole episode disgusts me – as it should disgust anyone interested in a tolerant and diverse society,” he wrote. “If we are about intimidating the free speech of others, we are no better than the anti-gay bullies who came before us.”
