    Some things don't work. I won't ever share a rig with a Muslim or even an Arabic driver of non-Muslim beliefs. I'm not a racist...I just don't share cultural beliefs or beliefs as simple as eating food with them. For example...when I'm cooking a nice bacon wrapped shrimp in the cab...

    I don't need the hassle.

    You do realize muslim people are a part of a religion right? Not a race, and you could have a person of your same race be a muslim and you probably wouldn't know it. Also saying you won't share your rig with someone based on their race is racist. Lots of people have differences mate, no need to be ignorant to a whole group of people. I have seen people who were hospitalized at a party because they were jewish, and jumped on the street and were beaten up because they were black. Being ignorant towards groups of people causes this superior/inferior complex keeps violence around the world alive and thriving. Be safe and have a good night.

    I believe I said I don't share their cultural beliefs. The same can be said about Jewish people and even Christian folks. I don't care what their religious orientation is...I am more concerned about their geographical orientation. There is ABSOLUTELY no way I am going to share a cab with a trainer or co-driver that believes that women (or Jews or Christians) are a lessor driver (and human) simply because they and their family were raised in another part of that God awful part of the globe most people refer to as the "Middle East". It is simply unacceptable to me.

    Sorry, I had to laugh. I have screamed and #####ed at my Rand McNally TND 720. Don't judge him for that. I am a red blooded American and I do it to. :biggrin_25525:

    Back in 1983 I spent six months on active duty in the Gaza Strip. I kept thinking to myself, "Why would anyone want this #####?" Well...here it is 30 years later and those same folks are pissing and moaning about that same piece of useless sand. Those people make me sick. Too many people have died over that useless piece of sand. It's not the land...it's the prominence of religious values that those folks are making a fuss about.

    I wouldn't mind sending a missile into all of them. I'd sign it, "Best Wishes...President Ronald Reagan."

    Okay, How the whole radio thing went down.
    He liked talk radio. Well some DJ or radio personality was reading essays about how Americans who had recently converted to Muslim enjoyed fasting for their first Ramadan, some holiday season over their. He was Anti Muslim. But that's neither here nor their. He did the universal up yours to the Radio (forearm up hit your bicep) F U F U and went on a tantrum about it for 10-15 minutes. Muslims Kill Muslims Kill they are being brainwashed. It was like a R rated Balky from Perfect Strangers. Or, the one super drunk belligerent everyone is trying to avoid at that party.
    Then he said "I'm sorry I had to turn it off." My thought was you were the one who had to turn it up and listen, nut. Just the way he got crazy after talking to me back in Salinas. He had lost me. Just a bad fit.
