While the horror show involving Brendan Eich, Proposition 8, and Mozilla was reaching its ignominious crescendo, I was in Milan, Italy, speaking before an energized crowd of activists in the Lombardy region’s county hall.
Unaware of the witch hunt carried out by McCarthy’s rainbow-brandishing gay great-grandsons in Silicon Valley, a middle-aged man came forward and cried out in Italian, “Is it just me, or is the gay lobby imposing a dictatorship on us with their so-called scientific experts?”
The science to which he referred wasn’t JavaScript, but rather psychology and pediatrics. He was referring to homosexual activists’ constant invocation of research supposedly proving that kids don’t need a mom and a dad, because scientists in lab coats with horrendous conflicts of interest publish peer-reviewed papers claiming that the statistics prove that children can be removed from a parent and still be “well-adjusted.”
I asked the audience: “Enough of gays saying they feel offended all the time. How do they think I feel when they tell me, someone raised by lesbians, I don’t have a right to my father, because of experts and their supposed research?” Applause, applause. The clock struck 10:00 PM in Italy.
“They don’t want to be told whom to love. So who are they to tell children who aren’t theirs that they have to love two gay adults and can’t love a biological parent the adults cut out of their lives?”
Eight time zones away, in California, conservatives were expressing their outrage over the ouster of a techie genius who did nothing but support a cause he believed in.

Mozilla Firefox failed the speech test.
Mozilla can ESAD. It WAS my go-to browser for well over a decade, but no more.
Mozilla will be removed from more than a dozen workstations, and excluded from server packages.
Boy we sure have lost the will to fight back on anything that scares us.shame on us..
It’s not even a question of someone who does, but someone who thinks contrary to what they desire. IMHO, you won’t be allowed to be a wealthy working person and think contrary to what’s PC in a few years. And yes, even if you are totally discrete about your politically incorrect beliefs, even if you treat homosexuals kindly in your regular day to day life, they will still find a problem with you being allowed in the same world as them.
Same here. Interestingly, in searching today for backlash against Mozilla, I find almost nothing after April 8 postings galore (which fomented boycotting Mozilla by the pro-gay side). I suspect Mozilla lost a huge number of installs on our side, and nobody wants to publish that.
Time will tell. The browser usage reports may eventually show a decline for the Mozilla line.
It would be nice to eliminate Mozilla from the linux distros.
