The Muslims Are Taking Over Minnesota To The Detriment Of All

SHAKOPEE, Minn. (WCCO/AP) — Members of the Somali Community and Amazon workers are asking the retail giant to “Hear our voice.”

During the heart of the holiday season, Somali Amazon workers staged a protest and rally against the company they say is not responding to community demands. Joining them Friday evening at an Amazon warehouse in Shakopee will be U.S. Rep.-elect Ilhan Omar, who’s the first Somali-American and one of the first two Muslim women elected to Congress.

After meeting twice with Amazon management, members of its East African workforce say they were forced to stage this rally.

What they want are safe jobs and respect for Amazon’s majority East African workforce — 60 percent of Amazon’s 3,000 workers in the area are East African. They want Amazon to be fair when dealing with them when it comes to productivity.

Workers say its hard to reach that 230 item an hour requirement because their time is interrupted when they leave the production line for prayer. Muslim workers are given paid leave for prayers breaks, a requirement by state law.

This is what happens when people, many aren't American citizens are allowed to make their own rules. Whatever happened to, "Say a prayer by yourself". What next? Will Somalians be demanding a mosque or prayer room be built on Amazon grounds? The answer is yes. Hilliard High School, the next suburb to the south of Dublin built a prayer room for Muslims. And the taxpayers are footing the bill.
