Sick to death of all this crap, for this to escalate to complaint level there was no dougbt proceedures to go through. Once again comon sense does not prevail and someone is out of a job and has lost there pension because people are scared to talk out against naything that involves blacks, muslims, or anyone who is not British! Fuck em is what I say, about time people where told to fuck off if they don't like the culture here then too bad. Part of our culture is humour................................ i agree, theres always some c*nt that has to above everyone and say this is not PC |

tell me what the fucking difference is btween touching the bottle and putting your hand in a plastic bag (Nekos earlier post) I couldn't tell you. I don't know if he could either. My point was, it made him comfortable with what he was doing, and didn't cause a problem - so I'm not bothered by it. Why can't the vocal few take the same attitude as him? |

How dare he, by doing what he did question what you are buying See, to me personally, it wasn't an issue. I know muslims aren't supposed to touch alcohol, and he wanted to abide by that - fine. By the same token, I wouldn't take offence if a Jew turned down a bacon sarnie, or a Hindu said they'd rather not have a serving of beef casserole. It's not a reflection on me or my purchase, it's them and their views. Different takes on the world here, I guess! |

The checkout assistant is totally different It's hardly like he said, "I'm not serving you that filth, you fucking infedel" is it?  It hardly impaired his work, so it really doesn't bother me. If he'd gone and wasted time getting someone else to do it, or faffed about trying to do it with a pair of tongs at arm's length or something, then it'd be another story - personally, I say fair play to him. He held true to his beliefs, but didn't cause any inconvenience - frankly it'd be nice if everyone did that, muslim or not! |

Look at the advert at the top of the thread for singlemuslim.com!! I thought that their parents found them a partner not a website.  |
