I have no problem with the argument of if the cabbie at the front of the line will not take your fare because you are carrying alcohol to go the next and let them stay at the front, because as it has been said, he was there and it is fair to boot them to the back. The problem that I do have is waiting for 20 minutes until they make their way down the line until they find someone that will take you, because not to be racist, but most cabbies are muslim.

The other thing that I do not like is picture a single mom just getting out of Safeway with a cart full of food and 2 screaming kids. They wait for a cab for 15 minutes in the cold and when he arrives he says that he cannot take her home because she also bought a 4 pack of coolers. So she has to wait another 15 minutes, at least, in the cold until another cab can get there.
