Quite sad affair tbh. First because some people failed to keep golden rule of keep politics and tech/business separated.
Second because it's kinda abuse of Mozilla Foundation mission to support one particular point of view. For a life of me, I can't find out how same sex marriage relates to webbrowsers and mobile OS. For me it simply don't belong there.

And finally iI find this situation harmful to the Mozzilla community. It might be taken as subtle hint that anyone not supporting same sex marriage won't 1st class citizen up there.

Beauty of open source is that it can be common ground for people of quite different beliefs. For each stance there is it's one absolutely opposite. And in my understanding tolerance is about mutual respect for right to have/express/support different opinion by other parties.
Sadly it doesn't seem to be that case. :(
