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.

It’s a place of business, not a place of worship. They are adults, it’s up to them to manage their time. Perhaps they should work midnight and pray during the day.
I love bacon! Eat pigs they are yummy
BeyzaYalcinkaya I respect you for following your religion. You really need to adapt to american customs or find a job that let’s you pray at the required times.
They quit so no unemployment benefits
They can pray at break or lunch like everyone else, bottom line, why should they get special privileges.
Send them home…to hell
You people shouldn’t be mean to Muslims
Two breaks and lunch. You don’t get more breaks just because you think your religion deserves it!
Who the f are you to get special privileges? Go back to where you came from if you don’t like it,you’re in America love it or leave it !!!!!!
Sure hope the company doesn’t cave, you know how that seems to happen once the dictator sends his goons in to “talk to the company” or to sue the hell out of them……
