Some interesting parallels here. The Drugstore guy who refused to fill a prescription for the morning after pill because he was pro life. The Canadian Legion voting to bar turbans because of their remove your headdress rule.
The difference here is that the cabbies are asking for special treatment – they have every right to refuse to pick up whomever they want for whatever reason they want. It is their right to be as bigoted as they choose. The problem arises where in making that choice, they no longer have to pay the consequence – going to the back of the line for 3 hours.
No way any public authority should support that.
