Your are wrong killa, they do want special benefits/laws, atleast here.
Like what?
I've haven't heard of that here, but different countries, different things I suppose. How exactly is gay marriage going to destroy the family?

Definition of family

"a basic social unit consisting of parents and their children, considered as a group"

So yes, if a gay couple has kids they are indeed a family.

Oh mannnn! You guys are having quite a discussion. From what I can see, KillaMan is breaking it down perfectly, especially when it pertains to the US Constitution. Freedom of Speech is a right we have, sure, but people who own businesses have rights, too. If this man has the right to say ANYTHING and WHATEVER he wants and still keep his job, then a 2nd-grade teacher at a private school can curse the living hell out of little kids every day in class and still keep his or her job. That's just not the case.

And I'm not sure if this has been mentioned already in this thread, but the CEO didn't get fired; he resigned and asserts he wasn't forced out. He claims it was best for the company for him to step down, at least temporarily. The fact of the matter still remains, though -- when we hear of these constitutional rights, it's about people and states' rights from the federal government. Everything in between can usually become a debatable situation, which is why we have courts, lawyers, judges, state law, police officers, and the US Code. Hell, even what's in the US Constitution is often fervently debated because of vastly different interpretations.

Nevertheless, all this easily becomes complicated, and it's not as 'simple' as it may seem on the surface; but precedent shows us that freedom of speech has not at all been infringed in this Mozilla case. And lastly, "Freedom of Speech" does not protect people from the consequences of speech, so even if he were intimidated into resigning, or even if he actually did outright get fired, his rights would have not been infringed, because he'd still be free and alive.

EDIT: Or, how about if a 2nd-grade teacher at a private school was teaching little kids about how to have gay sex? Would anti-gay proponents rally to keep that teacher's job because of free-speech rights?

He supported an anti-gay marriege campaing in 2010 , He left Mozilla cause there employers are defesors of gay marriage, it was quite the opposite of what you tried to show. Those gay groups only want special rights w/e and those who are against them are treated like worms wich they smash.

Here in my country, gay groups have build a Gay-kit to be used in school, so kids of 5 to 8 yo would be teached about all kind of Gay stuff, but the majority of ppl didn't approved and their Kit wasn't released. Kits were developed with gay groups and a part of the government wich is run by gay ativists, without asking the population, that is what those groups want, to enforce their weird (imo) stuff into our kids, destrying the conception of family (wich is IMO Men + Woman = Kids), legalizing Drugs (starting with Pot) and God knows what kind of drug they will allow too.
Here those Communist/Gay/Feminist and "Drug" groups work together to achieve their objs.

"Divide to conquer". They are doing it well.

You're family only if you can make a child? That's a pretty sad idea tbh

Funny that people get so worked up over marriage. Let anyone marry anyone they want. It's not like it actually means anything. People get divorced all the time.
It's like shaving your pubes to make your junk look bigger.
Might look bigger, but it aint.....

Hello,

I want to marry my PC, have started ironing my dick so it will fit in card slot.

At the end of the day, I have a personal opinion, a business opinion. No two people will ever have exactly the same views on everything, and the same can be said about people and companies. As long as I tow the company line in public, I don't see a problem. In private what I do is my business.

Now do we want to get in to a privacy issue here?

At first I though you just didn't like that the company fired him for his views, but your first strawman sentence makes it seem like you're also against gay marriage as well.
"I have a different opinion than you" could be used to justify any bad viewpoints or behavior. Where is the line? I'd say it's at equal rights for all humans, but apparently you disagree, despite having no logical argument to back up your view. Why are you even here debating if you're not going to provide anything other than meaningless phrases such as "No two people will ever have exactly the same views on everything" What's the point?


As far as privacy goes, how is this even a privacy situation? When you show your support for a public movement, that's a public act. A private act would be telling a friend or family member. If it was actually private, nobody would know, unless a family member or friend leaked it.
Regardless, when you're a CEO, nothing you do is private. It's the same as if you're a sports star or a celebrity. It's to be expected. He knew what he was getting into, it's the life of a public figure. It might not be right, but that's life, and life never has been, and never will be fair.
The bottom line was his stance on this issue had a chance to have a negative effect on the company. This kind of thing happens A LOT, but is only getting attention now because it has to do with gay marriage.

Exactly. If there are women and men who cannot have children, does this mean they shouldn't be allowed to get married and perhaps even adopt children without homes and/or parents?

ROFL @ "Gay kits." Who in the hell told you that? That sounds like something out of South Park. I don't believe it at all. What in the world could possibly be inside of a "gay kit?" Dildos and gay-porn DVDs? I don't understand, but I'd definitely love to know more.

The gay kit story made my day. The only thing I can think of is that a group might support better education in the earlier stages of a kid's life about homosexuality, but please elaborate on that.

Legalizing weed, or atleast controlling the usage of weed is a good idea by the way. Even if you take it even further, reselling it from the core of the government, being able to get taxes off of it. Not even mentioning that weed is less harmfull than tabacco and alcohol as far as I know.
A research a few years ago had an interesting result. The percentage of people above the age of 12 in the Netherlands (can purchase weed openly) who had ever tried weed was around 25%, where for example the percentage was around 45% in the USA(at the time of research illegal in all states).

Also Posessed, I'm getting a feeling you might be religiously influenced, am I right or completely wrong here?
