I didn;t make a joke about him, nor did I condemn the guy, but I also am
not going to support him through this.  If I felt he was innocent, then
maybe I would contribute, but I have seen nothing that proves that he is
innocent, or guilty, I am basically neutral on this issue.

Don't go blaming the linux community.. I bet most people feel the same
way as I do, wait and see what happens, if it looks unjust, then maybe
do something about it.. But then there are those who just don't want to
get involved in stuff like this.

Sorry to hear that, there is nothing I can do to help you there.
