Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport wants to crack down on Muslim taxi drivers who refuse to carry alcohol or service dogs in their cabs. At a meeting Wednesday of the Metropolitan Airports Commission, airport staff asked the commission to give the go-ahead for public hearings on a tougher policy that would suspend the licenses of drivers who refuse service for any reason other than safety concerns.
Drivers who refuse to accept passengers transporting alcohol or service dogs would have their airport licenses suspended 30 days for the first offense and two years for the second offense, according to a revised taxi ordinance proposed by the commission's staff.
"Our expectation is that if you're going to be driving a taxi at the airport, you need to provide service to anybody who wants it," commission spokesman Patrick Hogan said. The full commission is expected to vote on the proposal for public hearings at its next meeting, scheduled for Jan. 16.

"Same goes for me. I've reached the end of my rope where they are concerned. Death and misery follows them where ever they go."
I guess, I reached the end of my rope after doing my best to understand them, tolerate them, and being associated with them; my brother was once married to a North African muslin--nominal muslin, that is.
She has since, to my knowledge, become a born again Christian. I wished I had the time and energy to go into all of it
I hope this post gets through. My last two spelling correction posts did not.

Funny how jail makes people get religion. Yeah, a religion that tells you it's ok to blow yourself and kill some infidels while you're at it.

Thats the part that really scares me. They come out of jail and who knows why they were there in the 1st place ...All of a sudden they are Muslims. I am not against anyone getting religion in jail but couldn't they get a different one? One where beheading and violence isn't a hobby with them? GRRRR (sarcasm)

No boycott, but plenty leery. In 10 years consulting on my own only one client stiffed me even though I got him the results he needed. I'll let you guess his general description.

I can guess. I just had one rip me off on ebay. I should have known better then to bid on a double auction for a hooked on phonics book. Until it never arrived did I wonder why they had 2 of the same grade program. I tried to email them nicely. I have this terrible Irish temper and I finally left a message on the guy's cell phone saying I was contacting the state police to start an Internet fraud case on him if my $89 wasn't refunded asap. I got an email asking if I wanted to have a money order or it sent to paypal. I took the paypal but we will see if it comes. I know he is a Muslim because all his emails to me had a message saying Allah is great.

The first of many trials(as in trials and tribulations) headed our way I'm afraid.

this is MN- you need a license for everything except driving(if you're an illegal) .
You need a license to braid hair, file fingernails, even water your grass if it's unusually dry weather.

This is just days after they told muslims at the same airport that they don't get their own prayer room they have to share the room with non muslims.
Their response was there will be trouble if we have to pray next to non-muslims.
Now this, I predict angry deminstrations in the near future.
