Please drop the stupid CLA crap. You don't need it, and you need to fire whatever idiot lawyer told you that you did.

Talking aggressively like this is exactly the reason why we need CLAs.

CLAs are the reason for the harsh language. There's no reason to make contributors create and link a half-dozen accounts and read seven hundred pages of legalese to contribute to your project. It's a real barrier to contributions (see: the linked article), not to mention the time projects waste setting up these broken automated CLA systems, just to justify some lawyer getting a paycheck.

Are you confusing CLAs with CoCs?

What do comments, aggressive or otherwise, have to do with a licensing agreement?
