Muslims cab drivers are refusing drive people who have alcohol on them and dogs with them. Even if the person is sober or the dog is guide dog for BLIND people.
"because it involves cooperating in sin according to Islam."

They can legally do this, but they have to go to the back of the line if they refuse a fare. I avoid cabs at all cost anyway. They are
disgusting and smelly, as are most of the drivers. I live in Minneapolis, where all this hoo-ha started. Muslims are causing BIG problems here lately. Remember the incident with those imams? They accomodated them w/an interfaith prayer/quiet room and they STILL are complaining. They want a room for Muslims only! SO SICK OF THEM! Don't move to Minneapolis.

Yes, it is, and here in Calgary, they lose their cab licence if they refuse to take a working dog or drunk. we are very short on cabs right now.

Yes. It's discrimination.
