I drove a cab in college and refused service to people for being drunk, belligerent, suspicious looking or just a plain A -Hole.

My number one job was not to taxi people from point A to point B but to maintain my own safety.

If I thought I would go to hell for taking a certain person in my cab, I would refuse that fare.

Sounds like a very good reason not to ride in a Muzzi cab. Never know when they'll turn Jihadie on you.

Still, personal safety is one thing, an overdeveloped ability to "take offense" is a hog of a different color.

That's not the problem. Minneapolis grants less than 400 cab licenses to begin with. In addition to this, there are other requirements and regulations (placed by the Metro Airports Council) that must followed in order to work at the airport. If there are no rules governing this sort of thing, what's the point in even having licensing at all, other than a protection racket?
