It's not rare to find that your cab driver has a hard time with English, particularly if you're coming from an airport. However, it is rare, at least in my experience, to have a cab driver refuse to take you if you are carrying liquor. Yet, that is what is happening at the Minneapolis airport, where three-fourths of the cab drivers are Muslim. While the Koran prohibits drinking alcohol, but not transporting it, these drivers want to go beyond the Koran - and beyond the laws of our country.
Then, there are the Muslim clerks at Target stores in the Minneapolis area. They will not scan pork products; the customer or another clerk must do it. Again, the Koran allows people to touch, but not eat, pork. Why Target keeps these people on is beyond me. I'm sure there are aspects of the job that some non-Muslim clerks hate. Would they get fired if they said their religion barred them from doing that part of the job?
Something doesn't make sense here. If you are so upset about coming near alcohol or pork, then find a job where you can avoid them.
