Nobody is FORCED to do anything . If those things bother you then DO NOT TAKE THAT TYPE OF JOB. That make sense but i guess asking the world to make sense is asking way way way too much.

My sentiments exactly. I was thinking along the line of denial of service. Everyone should go in there at once and buy one can of beer. Go back and get wine. The entire place would dissolve into chaos of their own making. What a hoot!

I’ve been saying that the Muzzies have been laughing at our collective stupidity for years now. More of them have come here since 9/11 than any time before . That alone has to make them laugh at us.

Islamic workers at Sainsbury’s who object to alcohol on religious grounds are told to raise their hands when encountering any drink at their till

So it's okay to insult the customer? The employee is more important than the consumer? Screw that! Let's see how business goes with bigoted employees and no customers.

The UK is so far down the road of cultural appeasement that I’m starting to doubt if even the pubs will be open in ten years.

Try reading G.K. Chesterton's The Flying Inn, first published in 1914, for more on this.

Cheers!

“We must not let this infestation take root in this country like it has in Europe.”

It’s already started with Muslim employees of Target stores refusing to handle pork products.

Plus cab drivers refusing to carry passengers who have alcohol, and refusing passengers with seeing eye dogs. Some of these have been accommodated, and we also have the installation of foot baths at various public places.

They have told us in no uncertain terms that the plan is to infiltrate us and make Islam dominate th eworld. I cant see why most people don’t see the obvious. They are spitting in our faces and in the name of being politically correct we go along with it.

They are just using this to take small areas of control and make people bend to their will.

Bingo! I tell anyone who will listen to be on the lookout for this crap.

Creeping, incremental sharia.

If it isn't the demoncrats/liberals/progressives taking away freedoms, we always have TROP®! God help us . . .

Reminds me of our Lancaster Amish who can, for instance, run a wheeless weedwacker, but not a wheeled pushmower.

After the next big attack (especially if it’s biological, chemical or nuclear/dirty bomb) I predict that many will rise up and take vigilante action into their own hands. It will not be pretty. I was amazed after 9/11 that the American people didn’t run rampant. I don’t think that our patience extends to cities being destroyed.

yea, except the Amish keep to themselves and are not trying to take over the world.

IMO, events like these allow radicals in the Islamic community to make inferences regarding how deeply the British believe in their own values.

When Islamic radicals see appeasement, special treatment and backpedaling every time a moderate Muslim asserts his or her identity, they might — rightly IMO — conclude that the British don’t believe in their own values enough to stand up for them.

I wish I could agree with you buddy. The next attack will be blamed on Bush , the Republicans and America in general.If it happens before the 08 elections it will be said it was an attack planned by America on itself to ensure Republican victory.The Muzzies will cry out that we racist are going after them . They will have the ACLU , Columbia University , Code Pink types protecting them to the bitter end.Even another attack won’t wake up most people to the fact that we are at war and our survival is at stake.

If your right, and it doesn’t change; I doubt the UK will even be around in ten years.

Let’s see:

The Hindu employees might be offended by all the beef in the store.

The Jews - the pork.

The Buddhists might be offended by ALL the meat in the store.

The Christians might refuse to sell the “pornographic” magazines & CDs on the shelves.

The muzzies - they’re probably offended by ALL of it.

So, why would you choose to work in a place that offends you so much? Or shop there? Or even pass near there, knowing the disgusting & forbidden things within?

And how is a manager to manage such nonsense?

Sainsbury’s needs to understand the phrase “slippery slope”.

In my opinion this is very poor public relations. They seem to put the phobia of these nuts over the interest and good will to their customers. I do not buy booze or beer, but would find another place to shop.

The ACLU, Columbia University, Code Pink types, etc. are going to act as human shields for the terrorists and their enablers? I doubt that. There aren’t that many Rachel Corrie’s out there, I don’t think. http://www.rachelcorrie.org
