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.

Good;.
What does it say Beener Schnitzel? Seriously want to know. The supreme Court says different. I am not disagreeing I just haven’t heard this. I will try to look it up but in case I can’t i hope you will explain this.
One must be able to perform their duties in order to work…legal termination, not hate crime! ZOG needs to be ousted!!!
solve the problem by not hiring any of them to start.
From what I read here this situation was handled properly by this employer. Companies have rules and in America we follow the rules or we look for employment elsewhere.
They ought to be firred, if they walked off the Job, any other religion would have beren fiired.
I’m a leftie that thinks you have a point.
And I’ll bet you that we have to pick up the tap.
No work. No pay. No job.
Why is it that some groups think they should have more rights than their coworkers? Religious beliefs should be enjoyed on one’s own time. Should not expect society and employers specifically to allow them company time off to practice their faith!
