.. just another fine example.. of foreigners .. dictating policy . . tell them to be more accepting of others.. they would kick me out of their native country...hmm.. .. funny how when your at home! you want everybody to respect your home. . but you come to my home.. and you feel it's okay. to s*** all over the place..hmm.. just my opinion.. well I do tend to wonder why they don;t just go home if they are unhappy here. Seems to be the answer to everything, accept slavery or go home and I support that philosophy. So when are the slaves leaving so that people like the cab drivers can enjoy their freedoms that they have so righteously earned.

Either way we comment, our opinion can be construed as homerphobical or I-slamiphobical. Blatantly. Not really, just support freedom and the truth. The slaves wont like it but what do the free people care?

free to choose, bottom line we are free to choose which vehicle we purchase on a car lot, and we are likewise free to choose what vehicles we will LEASE in a cab business,,,,,you don't drive and you don't get paid,, seems like simple freedom that really needs no explanation and deserves no criticism others will drive the cars that I may not prefer to, but what should set me apart in AMERICA is the right to feel like I can choose for myself without being chastised for it,,, Not really, free to choose is but an illusion. In order to really be free to choose, one needs to be free, otherwise it is but an illusion.

I would be surprised if muslims were the only people objecting to driving. Though 'muslim' automatically creates a more sensational story,,,, those 25 Drivers need to look for another Job! Obviously they are not cut out to be Public Drivers! A Job in a Mosque or in a Halal Foodshop would probably be more appropriate! Then maybe too,they could be in the wrong Country,and Pakistan,Afghanistan(Tribal Areas) or Saudi Arabia would suit them better! I don't know how that particular cab company works, but I was a cabdriver once,, I 'leased' the vehicle with my own money and then drove around and gave the company the lions share of the fares if I am 'leasing' a vehicle, I don't see why I should have an obligation to take whatever is available to drive It is not like a regular job with an empoyer who hires and pays you to do a job,, it is a conractor thing where you lease equipment to earn money I would likewise not drive a vehicle promoting a 'gay' event,,,, That's what I say,those Guys were obviously in the wrong Job! If one is unable to do a Job,for whatever reasons,bow out,find another Job that suits you,and let someone else handle the Job you're unable or unwilling to do! Really, and to what communist theorem would be owe this conclusion. Nothing like a little coercion at the point of a gun to show you mean it, is there?

its not the wrong job, just the wrong place or time,,,the event isn't forever, but people will always need cabdrivers, and for those who know an area , it could be the 'right' job,,, like lots of people might make great teachers, but decide not to work in the field in an area or time when , lets say, they have decided to have a week teaching the muslim traditions to children,, think of all the 'strikes' that have happened, should all those people just simply looked for another job because they didn't roll over and agree to anything the employer ordered,, that type of obligation seems more like slavery to me,,, its personal choice, lots of things happen in the 'right job',, that conflict with someones 'right values',,,,,but it doesn't mean it will last forever or that it is happening everywhere in that job,,, and like I said, its not like cabdriving is a proper employee/employer job, it leaves much more room for choice in the first place,, choosing when to work, and where to work,,, Granted there is one area that seems to be an area of expertise here but not the analogy between the cab drives and the teacher. Now one of them is expressing a right and the other is a dereliction of duty. Chances are this is ill understood but then getting one out of three is something. And the rest makes absolutely no sense at all, just gibberish.

muslims have different sects , just like Christianity, it is diverse homosexual behavior is not individuals should not feel pressured to help PROMOTE that behavior if they don't wish to,, particularly when deciding whether to PAY for a vehicle with such promotion on it,,,

7-11's always hiring. B-b-b-but don't they sell SPAM (TM) Luncheon-meat? Don't know what Spam has to do with the post, but again wrong. Sure they sell Spam but Muslims wouldn't buy it, it's pork based.

And the rest makes absolutely no sense at all, just gibberish. the DUTY as a taxidriver, in my experience, is nonexistent UNLESS and ACCEPT For when someone is DRIVING THE TAXI there is no dereliction in choosing not to drive,,,,, a busdriver, on a set schedule, being paid a salary for keeping that schedule would be derelict in their duty if they refused to honor their contractual schedule a TAXIDRIVER, when they have no set salary or accompanying contractual schedule, is not derelict since there is no contractual DUTY to drive as an independent contractor,,,,

well, everyone ha a right to like or dislike what they want... but the freedom works both ways, for muslims and gays, me you and everyone else... they have a right to protest, just as the gays have rights too... Would have to agree with you here. The Gays have a right to advertise their event and the Muslims have a right to not have that advertisements on the vehicles they drive. Rights only extend as far as not to impinge or usurp the rights of another. But few here understand that principle, they believe that that somehow mystically have the right to determine what another's rights are. A common misconception of those without rights because if you don't understand them you don't have rights, just privileges.

And just what does that have to do with the post? Representing the company is not the topic of discussion.

Hell you even said in several threads businesses should be forced to help with, design and preform gay and Lesbian weddings. Which ever way the wind blows.

American's should boycott Muslims! America should boycott Repugantcants!!!! Then we would have more room for people that understood freedom and rights.

Just where was it stated the cab drivers were derelict? And what does a bus driver have to do with it? About as much as your proverbial derelict teacher.

So if you don't like being refuted, than do some of that source research you spouted some time ago. And I comprehend fully, you tried to make a snide remark that didn't fly because even snide remarks need to have some element of truth.

anything's "Communist" if you don't understand it? It's the simplest thing in the world! If you are unable to do a Job,quit it and look for a different one.Let someone else handle it! How do you see Coercion and Communism in that! Simple common sense,and how the Market works! First, it's not how the market works, only the communist/socialist market. Free markets are based on free choice, not socialist illusions of choice. Second, your analysis is pure socialist rhetoric and a total misconception of the factor involved. There is no issue about being unable to do the job. Third, it seems you ill understand the concept of coercion. co�er�cion, noun, the practice of persuading someone to do something by using force or threats So I guess that it comes back to that basic concept, I would rather be not wrong than wrong. Try it some time, it's truly enlightening, sort of an Illuminati feeling.

If you can't handle the Job,quit it and look for one that better suits you! What is so difficult about that? Where do you come up with this, reading comprehension? This has nothing to do with "handling" the job as you state. It is about their rights not to have objectionable advertising on a cab, one that they have to pay rent to drive, that is against their religion. Outside socialist environments, like the republic here in these united States, that is their right, not a socialist privilege. And to threaten them in any manner is coercion, which in a republic as should be elsewhere but isn't, unlawful. Not illegal, but unlawful. So what is so difficult about that, I would start with the ability to understand the difference between rights and privileges. But to those that little understand natural law, then it is impossible, hence the constant usurping of another's rights. But then if those in Europe understood this, there would never have been an European Union or at least not on the same grounds as the current one. Sort of like Ukraine, trading the screwing they got for the screwing they are going to get.
