Gaming Company CEO Ousted After Tweeting Support For Texas Law Protecting Unborn Babies

Tripwire, a video game development company, announced on Monday that its CEO Josh Gibson “stepped down” due to his pro-life comments on a personal Twitter account.

“The comments given by John Gibson are of his own opinion, and do not reflect those of Tripwire Interactive as a company. His comments disregarded the values of our whole team, our partners and much of our broader community,” Tripwire’s statement said. “Our leadership team at Tripwire are deeply sorry and are unified in our commitment to take swift action and to foster a more positive environment.”

Shortly after Texas’ newest pro-life law went into effect on Sept. 1, the CEO tweeted his support of the U.S. Supreme Court for declining to block the law.
