What if a cab company announced it was offering exclusively native-American drivers and only accepting American passengers? Ping to Today show list.

Imagine a whites only taxi service for white people who feel safer/more comfortable with a white driver.

[miss marmelstein]

Everything I learned about life I learned from dealing with NYC cab drivers. So, no, I don’t support this. Too many people are too cushioned from the stresses of real life - learn to deal with it. Mika’s a major wuss, anyway. She’s actually afraid of potato chips.

[driftdiver]

So its legal to refuse service to men because of their gender.

[rollo tomasi]

Hypocrisy is the hallmark of back end of the 20th century/modern day feminism.

[rollo tomasi]

Jeeze, “...in the back end...”

[SECURE AMERICA]

Only women drivers and women passengers? Great idea. Next only white drivers and white passengers. Oh that is illegal? Why, if the first one isn’t?

[Fightin Whitey]

That Joe, he really knocks ‘em dead.

[Jack Hydrazine]

What if a man needs a ride and feels like a lesbian on the inside?

a new taxi service that hires only women drivers and accepts only women passengers, all the panel members—Mika, Joe and Willie—dug the idea

It's a very good idea, I dig it too.

Such hypocrisy from the left who don't seem to mind capitalism as long as it benefits a protected class.

[mmichaels1970]

Next only white drivers and white passengers.

Let's not make that jump yet. Let's start with only male drivers for male passengers, better apples to apples comparison.

Their company motto can be something like "for men who want to get there in one piece", or something like that.

I’d settle for having a non-jihadi taxicab driver for once.

[I want the USA back]

Illegal and unconstitutional.

[deoetdoctrinae]

I wonder if there will be a cab company with asses for drivers and asses for customers. (A number of them are probably already half way there.)

;)

What if a man needs a ride and feels like a lesbian on the inside?

I can just imagine what happens when the cab lady refuses service to a transgender.

[dmz]

Stealing ideas from the Muslims.

In Jerusalem, there are Muslim women cab drivers who only pick up women. A woman certainly cannot get into the cab with a man she does not know.

[mmichaels1970]

asses for drivers and asses for customers. (A number of them are probably already half way there.)

So you're saying they'd do a "half-assed" job?

[sickoflibs]

I would assume that a man has to try to schedule one of these woman-cabs, get rejected, then sue.

Keep in mind Holder will not enforce the law on this, unless the victim is the right demographics.

Just like Hate crimes.

Its probably also illegal at the state level.
