Warning! This is a high-volume ping list.
When customers call for a cab can they ask the company NOT to send a Muslim driver? Can riders refuse a Muslim driver? Will Muslim drivers also refuse fairs from homosexuals, Jews...? Where does it end?
If they won't transport passengers, pull their licenses.
" . . . and no driver losing business."
More and more, they are inflicting their beliefs on the people in this country. If I were at that airport, with or WITHOUT liquor, I'd go out of my way NOT to get into one of their crappy taxis.
Oh boohoo. They should lose their licences.
More creeping Sharia from the Cult of Death.
Test cases. The know they can't take over by violent overthrow, so they do it this way. Well, I don't have to give them my business. This is getting way over the line. IMO, this is war.
Perfect solution! Cabbies don't have to carry alcohol against their will and customers who prefer not to do business with Mo's kids have a convenient means to differentiate.
oops - thought that the MuzziePigs said it was a "Korean issue" and that therefore they were concerned about drunk unruly Koreans that wanted to chop their heads off.
Nevermind. Move along people - nothing to see here :-)
This is absolutely ridiculous. Once upon a time a bus company didn't want to let black folks sit in the front of the bus if there were white passengers present -- we saw what happened there.
Any sort of signal that allows for discrimination when dealing with a legal transaction should be discouraged, if not banned. If you're a hack (in most areas) I'm pretty sure that there are strict conditions upon which you can refuse a fare, and this is not one of them. If they can't deal with the notion that Americans purchase and consume alcohol, then they should be driving cabs in a country that doesn't allow it.
Passengers at the airport should turn the tables on them -- they shouldn't ride in *any* taxi that has this light on it, even if they don't have alcohol among their belongings (which, last time I checked, was none of the driver's business anyway).
I drove a cab, and the behavior of these drivers in Minnesota is contrary to the entire cab business.
Half the trips out there are picking up or driving patrons to bars and homosexual hangouts, hauling Mr. Lush and his 2 cases of beer from the local beer distributor to his home for a weekend of serious drinking, transporting the blind with their guide dogs or transporting people with their pitbulls.
I don't see how these muslim drivers make any money, their business model seems defective. Being liberal (in the traditional sense) in what one will accept is essential in that business.
Good, I'll know who to avoid.
Ill bring in a slab of bacon and throw it on the front seat for the Muzzies tip.
The right and proper solution is that any cab or hired car driver who refuses a fare loses his cab and his license, permanently!
End of problem!
I am also concerned that some of these brain washed muslim cabbies may have a suicidal tendency towards killing some of their fares. Very disturbing.
If there is to be a two-light solution, it should be used to shuttle the Sharia-compliant cabs back to the end of the line without inconveniencing the customer. The taxi-stand operator can determine (in a culturally sensitive way, of course) if the customer would be offensive to the poor wittle feewings of the Muslim taxi operator, and move that taxi along to the back of the queue if he thinks there might be a problem.
There is no way a taxi operator should be allowed to refuse one passenger and then pick up the next passenger in the line. We should not reward such obnoxious behavior, regardless of the motivation.
You just knew the Airport was going to knuckle under in this situation. Weak little dhimmi pansies, they are. I hope their chains rest lightly upon them.
Alternatively, the authority having jurisdiction could require taxis to pick up and transport all paying customers, and pull the license of those who don't, like everywhere else in the World. If it came down to losing a license, you would be amazed how quickly these meticulously observent Muslims will look the other way. It is only because accomodations have been made that the Airport now finds itself in this position.
If a white taxi driver provably refused to pick up an African American fare because of his race, he would lose his license so fast your head would spin, and rightly so. The same standard should be applied here.
But if they were carrying a sack of dynamite it would be perfectly okay?..........or seven heads in a duffel bag?.......
