Richard M. Stallman, frequently known as RMS, has been a driving force in the fress fotware movement for decades, with contributions including the GNU operating system and Emacs. Recently, there have been vile online attacks looking to remove him from the FSF board of directors for expressing his personal opinions.
To the FSF:
Removing RMS will hurt FSF's image and will deal a significant blow to the momentum of the free software movement. We urge you to consider your actions carefully, as what you will decide will have a serious impact on the future of the software industry.
To the ambush mob who is ganging up on Richard Stallman over reasonable arguments in debate and various opinions and beliefs voiced over decades as a public figure:
You have no part in choosing the leadership of any communities. Especially not via another mob attack which does not remotely resemble a fairly conducted debate as exemplified by better people such as Richard Stallman.
