A case is currently in the Supreme Court regarding a Muslim girl who was told not to wear her hijab to her job at Abercrombie. This is so ironic because A & F is known for their barely there clothes and barely clad models. As you’ll see below, the Target employees were asked to ring up objectionable meat or alcohol for the Muslim employee. This is just ridiculous!

According to recent reports, Target stores have implemented a new policy that specially caters to Muslim cashiers. The national retailer recently announced that those who object to ringing up products that contain pork are being shifted to other positions within the organization.

I think that if a private company opts to do that for their employees then that should be 100% their call.

The question of whether they should be legally mandated to do so is a quite different one.

I think people should be allowed to wear whatever they want.

I would not let a Muslim woman in religious garb ring me up. I have far too much respect for women to, de facto, approve of their bondage.

I think Church of the Flying Spaghetti Monster members shouldn't be forced to checkout Italian food.

So the employees made a request based on their personal beliefs about food/alcohol and the employer accommodated them?

If I have a Muslim co-worker who recently received some days off for Ramadan, is my employer also "surrendering to Muslim sharia requests?"

who cares? If you don't like it don't go there. Or better yet, pick up a big ole hunk of pork meat and seek out the women in burkas to axe for a price check and advice on cooking. Chase them gurls all around the store with your pork in hand... Stand up for America!

I couldn't care less, just like I couldn't care less if their cashiers say Merry Christmas during the holidays.

If you don't like it, you don't have to shop there. I'm why it would bother anyone. Would you be angry if a Jewish person refused to ring up your pork?

I try my best to slather my hands in pig fat and shake hands with Muslims and Jews when grocery shopping.
