Another American company is being attacked this week over policies the liberal media and the Council on American Islamic Relations are calling insensitive and prejudice. The incident happened at a meat packing and distribution plant in Colorado, when nearly two hundred workers, most of them Muslim immigrants from Somalia, were fired for walking off the job to protest a workplace prayer dispute. The dispute was allegedly over changes made in the times they were allowed to take breaks in order to pray.
According to reports by the Denver Post, some workers later returned and were allowed to keep their jobs, but a majority stayed to protest in hopes of swaying management to reinstate a prayer schedule. A representative from the Council on American Islamic Relations or CAIR has taken the job of negotiating on behalf of the fired workers, claiming that they feel missing their prayer is “worse than losing their job”. It sounds like the problem just solved itself.

Don’t hire them back plenty of people here that need jobs
Its okay for me 🙂
Deport the ungrateful pigs. We the people didn’t want them and still don’t. The liberals can’t support them ,hell they can’t even pay for their covet convention
If u have to pray that many times go home
Please read the article. The company had a prayer room set up where people of all faiths were allowed to pray. People were praying on their own time, one or two at a time, in 5 – 10 minute intervals, ON THEIR OWN TIME. They prayed either during their break or UNPAID lunch time. This is how rumors get started…just the facts people. ANYONE of any faith could take use the room, on their own time, to pray.
if you can’t do your job and follow the rules then just leave
Actually u can. Check out the AcLus guide to prayer in public school.
They hold up the whole assembly line in some cases! Would an American worker be allowed to do this? I don’t think so!
I bet they get paid for the time they are praying!
Save the praying and add extra prayers when you get out of work! Do it on your own time!!
It’s amazing how my God accepts my prayer any time! Jehovah Jireh! Thank You Jesus!
Jesse Torres for president!!
