		<description>I&#039;m with Rusty on this one. Better to be consistent in the application of the law even if its CAIR complaining about the alleged violation. I wonder if the A&amp;F Kids store has the music turned up so loud you can&#039;t talk in a normal voice? To show you how old I am, I bought a backpack and other camping gear at the A&amp;F store in San Francisco in the 1970&#039;s. They used to sell rifles for shooting lions and elephants there. Hemingway and Teddy Roosevelt used to buy their safari gear and firearms there. Now, if a woman in a burka showed me an elephant gun, that might make me a little nervous.</description>

		<description>[...] In this day and age in the United States of America, I can ill imagine that there is someone who doesn&#8217;t grasp this.  Yet, certain people go to work for A&amp;F or Hollister, then act all offended when they&#8217;re required to skimp on the raiment.  Like, Duh.  About once a month, I&#8217;ll read these kinds of lawsuit stories, usually they revolve around Muslim employees.

		<description>Give her a job. Put her in charge of the thong table. Make her work with thongs 24 x 7. Surround her with posters of women in thongs. Then play rock the casbar ( spl )on the PA system 24 x 7. She&#039;ll quit.</description>

		<description>Next they&#039;ll want to work at a pet groomer...but won&#039;t handle dogs; or a Christian book store...but won&#039;t handle Bibles; or a kosher food shop...but won&#039;t serve Jews. We gotta figure a way to get them all to kill themselves...when we&#039;re at a safe distance. Can&#039;t we just make them go away? They give me the heeby jeebies.</description>

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;Us libtards...&lt;/blockquote&gt;

&quot;We libtards...&quot;

One more - suppose an evangelical came in for a job with A+F and explained it&#039;s part of their religion to attempt to convert others to Christ and that they would tell every customer that Jesus loved them.  Can A+F turn them down for a job?

Would they have to hire both, and have dueling cashiers?

Evangelical - &quot;Come to Christ.&quot;

Hijab Woman - &quot;If you do we will kill you for being an infidel&quot;

Yarmulke Guy - &quot;Oi Vey.&quot;</description>

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;    &lt;blockquote&gt;You put up the money for the business, run it the way you want&lt;/blockquote&gt;

If you think that’s the way things work then there is no hope.&lt;/blockquote&gt;

I thought this was America... 

There is a place uptown called B&amp;H photo run by conservative Jews. (An excellent camera/photo store) I am going to go dress like the Ayatollah Khomeini and apply for a job. Then when they toss my idiot ass out I am going to sue because they have no right to run their business the way... Never mind, I am not an parasite who can&#039;t earn a living honestly and I am not out to push Sharia law.</description>

In what way is this not bigotry?
On September 11, Islam ceased to exist as a valid “religion” in the eyes of nearly all Americans. The bigotry label is moot.&lt;/blockquote&gt;

You said it.  Islam is an ersatz religion.  It&#039;s more closely aligned with totalitarianism than any true religion. It has no mysticism.  It has no charitable impulse.  Its founder was a thief, murderer and pedophile.  It qualifies as a cult, rather than as a religion.  It forces conversion.  It murders apostates. Its aggression and will to dominate has been its underlying theme for 13 centuries.

Any honest, intelligent person can see that.  

I guess that excludes libtards like Rusty.</description>

Atheling, if you don’t have anything intelligent to say, shut up. Us libtards are doing a pretty good job defending women’s and religious rights.&lt;/blockquote&gt;

You should be saying that to lgm.  He&#039;s the &lt;strike&gt;queen&lt;/strike&gt;
king of idiotic comments.

Secondly, you are full of it, Rusty.  You libtards have been attacking the rights of Christians for 50 years.  You don&#039;t want us to display any religious symbols, i.e., crosses, mangers, etc... anywhere.  You libtards have participated in concerted efforts to squelch any Christian discourse in politics and in our society.

You&#039;re not only a misogynistic POS, you&#039;re a lying one, at that.</description>

		<description>#150,

While 9/11 opened our eyes and showed the true threat of terrorism to our country it &lt;strong&gt;did not&lt;/strong&gt; change the beliefs and morals that make our country so grand. We respect and welcome all who wish to &lt;strong&gt;peacefully &lt;/strong&gt;and &lt;strong&gt;respectfully &lt;/strong&gt;and &lt;strong&gt;legally &lt;/strong&gt;exist within our society. 

As a Catholic I welcome friendship and open arms to my Muslim friends with the knowledge that peaceful coexistence between our faiths is a reality. Not every Muslim is a terrorist, and I know personally many American Muslims in uniform who are proud and serve our country well in our fight against terrorism. 

So step down from your soapbox and stop the hate.</description>

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;Plenty of jobs have uniforms. But a hijab along with these clothes is as protected as a yarmulke.
&lt;/blockquote&gt;

Suppose a member of the &quot;Cowpie Hat Baptists&quot; showed up, and his religion called for a fresh cow pat on his head every day..  (You may think this is strange, some people think a hijab is strange.)  Can A+F refuse to hire him because  the cow pie “does not fit the Abercrombie image.” ?  And as odd as you may think it is, the cow pie is an essential teaching of his religion.  Or is deciding whom to hire based on an educated guess as to how that person helps or hinders the business a legitimate right.</description>

		<description>I think it is important to state that discrimination is illegal in our country on the basis of race, creed or religion. It is not right that the manager said what he did and A&amp;F will rightfully have to pay for this.

As American, we need to stand up for and enforce our laws not selectively decide which are PC and which are not. 
 

And obviously applying as a stripper in a burqua is a different story.

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;I don’t have the &lt;strong&gt;right&lt;/strong&gt; to only hire white people. I don’t have the &lt;strong&gt;right&lt;/strong&gt; to only hire Christians. I don’t have the &lt;strong&gt;right&lt;/strong&gt; to refuse service to someone who is gay.&lt;/blockquote&gt;

There are a thousand and one ways around this so called &quot;right,&quot; and there&#039;s not a single thing the EEOC can or will do about it. (I know from experience...I was denied a job, for which I was the most qualified applicant, because of my political affiliation.)  
&lt;blockquote&gt;
In what way is this not &lt;strong&gt;bigotry&lt;/strong&gt;?&lt;/blockquote&gt;

On September 11, Islam ceased to exist as a valid &quot;religion&quot; in the eyes of nearly all Americans. The bigotry label is moot.</description>
