That may be so, but what many of us want is to do is distance ourselves from 
RMS' behaviour which 
not only incorporates a partisan political attitude when it comes to this 
country, (so much for 
the zeitgeist of Free and Open - has it also become another metaphor for 
hypocrisy because of RMS' 
fingerprints all over it?)  but also a callous insensitive posture regarding a 
man whom we did not 
know personally but who enriched the lives of many with his creations.
There is a time and place for everything but now is not the time to resort to 
media practices.
RMS may be intelligent but he is not a mensch.
