Disgusting dhimmitude.

Are other cabbies similarly allowed to transport Korans in their cabs?

[dead]

I generally don't let cabbies look in my luggage.

[NurdlyPeon]

Sounds like the cab driver was doing them a favor. Any driver that would do something like that is probably not someone whose cab you would want to get into.

[aft_lizard]

If a muslim wanted a ride and was refused fare for whatever reason it would be called bigotry,racism etc. No hypocracy here.

[Tax-chick]

Carrying bottles of wine in your suitcase seems a poor choice all around.

[camle]

reckon they won't be taking teddy kennedy anywhere soon...

[D.P.Roberts]

These bigots need their licenses pulled.

[joebuck]

"Now the airports commission has a solution: color-coding the lights on the taxi roofs to indicate whether a driver will accept a booze-toting fare."

Well at there's an up-side, now even non drinkers will be able to avoid muzzie taxi drivers.

[2banana]

Why are these muslims even serving infidel women that are not covered up? They seem to be picking and choosing from the koran...

[BigBobber]

Clearly this is against the law. The are offering a service to the public and can't legally discriminate against non-Muslims.

I'm sure the ACLU will file a suit against them.

[HEY4QDEMS]

and the drivers were Muslims, who don't drink and refuse to have alcohol in their taxis.

Think they'd object to my pig head?

[Utahrd]

What if a Southern Baptist cabbie in Atlanta refused to take a passenger that was carrying booze?

The ACLU would have him hauled into court.

[shankbear]

The ride might stink up a good bottle of wine anyway. Don't ride with the Izlamomuzziethugz from any country.

[trisham]

She had two bottles of wine in her suitcase --

************

I can't imagine carrying a bottle of wine in my suitcase. That being said, how did the cabbie know it was there?

[ozoneliar]

Now the airports commission has a solution: color-coding the lights on the taxi roofs to indicate whether a driver will accept a booze-toting fare The Caliphate of Minneapolis. This is bogus. Cab- Drivers are not supposed to be allowed to refuse service to anybody.

[ozzymandus]

Any cab company that would hire these nuts should be sued for discrimination. I suspect Jesse jackson will be standing at the cab stand with a bottle of Ripple and a lawyer.

[MplsSteve]

WELCOME TO FREE REPUBLIC'S MINNESOTA PING LIST!!!

Let me know if you want on or off this list!

[BallyBill]

I don't allows muslims near me when I'm drinking, so we're even.

[gaijin]

I wonder if they'd mind if I tipped them from my BACON BILLFOLD..?

[rogue yam]

I've been trying to figure out an effective response to this situation. I think that the best approach is to make a regulation that any cab with a Muslim driver who wants to discriminate against his fares should be clearly marked. And fares should have the right to refuse a so-marked cab at any time without explanation, with everyone (drivers and customers) fully informed of the rules. Then those of us who object to this nonsense can simply boycott the jihad jitneys, and let the marketplace decide. Imagine self-righteous Mohammed sitting at the head of the airport taxi-line with fare after fare laughing and pointing at him as they take their business to the infidel taxies who arrived to the queue after he did. Let Mo pull to the curb in a busy entertainment district on a hopping Saturday night and have the tipsy revelers wave him off and wait for a more ecumenical transportation experience. I'd bet ol' Mohahhed would get his turban straight soon enough after a bit of that.

[guppas]

Wow! If you wanted to be nasty you could leave things in the cab that might be offensive. Mabye even under the driver's seat. Pork chop anyone?
