Thoughts from John Gibson on the subject:

I find this issue interesting because of the vile criticisms from the left of pharmacists who do not want to sell RU-486 or other similar drugs because of their religious convictions.
The cabbies are not imposing sharia law, but allowing their Islamic values to driving their behavior.

So are the pharmacists.
I used to live there until last august,and have experienced first hand cabbies that wont allow alcohol.I arrived at MSP airport and they give you no choice of cabs,they have an area where you get into line,then they direct you to available cabs.Most of which are driven by smartass somalias.I asked one to stop at a liquer store on way home and he refused.I got mad as hell and told him to call into base and send me a non muslum cabbie and he refused that too.These are the same people smuggling in thier drug of choice called "KAT"maybe I have that spelled wrong,but its a leaf they chew to get high all day long.But when they live in our country they cant honor our desires because of thier religion.Minneapolis has more somalias than any other city,and They recruit them to live there,so I dont feel sorry for them at all.
