Officials with the company told WND the labor union representing the 1,200 plant workers, including about 700 immigrants from Somalia who largely are Muslim, sought the holiday change in the new five-year contract, and the company agreed.

Tyson was a big supporter of the Clintonista regime so I’m not surprised.

I hardly ever buy Tyson.
A. Because We don’t eat frozen, packaged foods or foods that are suspect to turd world contamination.
B. We survived the Clinton years. Reason enough.
C. Sharia crap for Somali Mooselimbs makes me wanna puke.

At least it was Labor Day they decided to get rid of. Can’t say I’m a big fan of the holiday anyway.

About 40 years ago, MAD had a corporate newsletter, in which it was announced that the factory would be open on Christmas, to avoid offending one employee—”who is Muslim.”

"Tyson Foods, which boasts on its corporate website that it strives "to honor God," will have time off for Eid al-Fitr, the Muslim holiday closing the month of Ramadan"

So how does supporting a devil worshipping cult with a rock god named "allah" "honor" God?

Just make a list of Tyson products and let them feed muslims and democrats.

I love chicken. I'm just not going to eat anything from Tyson.

Real easy choice.... support muzzies or get my business.

Labor day, while I enjoy having it off, was a creation of the reds anyway. If they had swapped it for July 4th or Memorial day this would be a lot more aggravating.
