I am pretty sure there are different rules about pork and alcohol. Whereas Muslims are against mind-altering substances, pork is not eaten for different reasons.
I would personally prefer if cabs didn't pick up people who ate pork... serves you right for eating something that lives in it's own feces... gross.

But they are against both. You are completely ignoring the question. Would it be okay for them to refuse women who are not dressed up to their standards? Or better yet, a drunk, scantily clad woman, who just had a porkchop?
I think we are essentially in agreement here...yes, they should be able to refuse a fare to anyone, for any reason. I agree with that. But, they are also asking for an exemption from getting back in the taxi lines and waiting their turn again. They shouldn't be able to have it both ways.
These guys need to learn that they will be dealing with people who don't live life the way they do. Its a fact of life. You talk so much about respecting their religion, well how about them respecting other people's lifestyles? It goes both ways.
