Indeed. But the Constitution doesn’t protect the rights of its enemies. And if these folks AREN’T our enemies, let them renounce (i.e., publicly reject) their more energetic religionists.

"Well, it would be wise to assign staff with religious (or any kind of) limitations to roles that aren't objectionable."

Better to not hire the troublemakers to begin with. Every resume we receive with a muslim-sounding name goes right into the shredder.

I would leave everything sit, and leave the store.

Christians must bake wedding cakes for BGLT faux-unions, but Muslims aren’t required to respect the wishes of those they offend.

Never heard of Marks & Spencer or I would’ve boycotted them from day one.

I don't see quite how you can bring that off, under the Constitution.

On the other hand, Islam's "imperialist and supremacist ideology" is antithetical to the Constitution.

You answered your own question. It's a supremacist cult not a religion and doesn't need to be allowed under our Constitution.

Bring them a full cart including pork and alcohol. If they refuse to ring it up, leave the store. Let them bear the expense of restocking all of the goods and not making a penny for their foolishness. Apparently you can force a Christian baker to make a cake for a gay wedding, but a Muzzie gets a pass on a ring up. Make it an expensive choice.

Others can play that game too. Perhaps customers should refuse to allow Muslims to check out their orders on religious grounds;

“I refuse to allow anyone who believes in genital mutilation to touch my order.”

“We are still all very angry about that attempt to conquer Vienna, you will not be ringing up my order!”

“We see what you people did to Hagia Sophia! You will not be checking me out today!”

“Have you been washing your feet with those hands! Don’t even think about touching my digestive biscuits!”

Repeat often...

They’ve been selling pork to Jews for years and nothing was ever said about it. If one of these stores was near me I’d refuse to shop there. See if they can get along with only muslim customers.

My, God, what has happened to this world?

Unfortunately, I see more and more stores instituting this policy.

I would hope the shoppers leave their groceries on the counter and walk out the door. This can be done over and over until the store gets the idea that the customer is always right. Leave everything there.

Does M&S have any US stores or any divisions in the US? If the person refused to ring ALL my purchases, I would leave the stuff on the counter and don’t shop there.

So do you think Obama should force Hobby Lobby to cover birth control, or pharmacists whose beliefs are against it to give out abortion drugs, etc.?

But I guess some conservatives are being as hypocritical as the lefties on this?

I don’t think most of you are reading the article.. This is a British store, so Constitutional rights aren’t really recognized there. (Even in the US, if a store wanted to do this, they’d be (should be) perfectly fine doing so, just stupid.)

But what’s ridiculous is that the store is actually keeping these employees on the cash registers. Having them at the tills is just inviting trouble when customers check out and then have to wait for another cashier to come over just to do that, or go back through a different line.

This is simple just do not shop there. Do not give them a single penny of your money.
