Boycott Tyson Foods, It Is Anti American

Tyson Foods has decided that American traditions mean nothing so long as the company can appease the Muslims working for it. The union negotiated a new contract this year and in it they removed Labor Day as a paid holiday and replaced it with Eid-Al-Fitr, a Muslim Holy day that comes at the end of Ramadan. This year it will be on October First.

Here is an American company with 1200 employees, 700 of whom are Muslim. If you do the math you will see that 500 of them are not Muslim. The company removed a Federal Holiday as a paid day off and replaced it with a Muslim religious holiday. 500 workers got screwed so that 700 could be appeased.

This is the United States of America and not some crap hole Muslim Country. Labor day is an American holiday for the American laborer. Taking it away is wrong and there is no justification for this act of stupidity.

Every non Muslim employee at the Tyson plant should call out sick on Labor Day and let the Muzzies do all the work. In any event, I encourage everyone to avoid buying any Tyson product. Hit them hard financially and show them that they will pay for the insult to their non Muslim workers.

My friend Kender also advises that, if you own Tyson stock, you might want to sell it.

What next? Remove Christmas as a paid holiday and replace it with Mohammad’s (HWACM)* birthday? Then it will be open season…

This is just another example of how unions ruin this country.

    I think they should just ad pork products to the menu and not mention it to the crew… after all it is a healthy alternative to beef. McDonalds used beef drippings to flavor their french fries for years. The entire staff at Tysons would probably love a tiny bit of pork flavoring in some of their meat dishes.

    I don’t see the problem here other than your prejudice against Muslims. If a private company wants to change its paid holiday offering to its workforce, so be it. Isn’t that what freedom is all about?

  3. Big Dog says:

    So, you have no problem with nearly half a workforce getting screwed to appease the other half. You also have no problem with a union negotiating away an American holiday?

    You are correct, a private company is free to change any holiday it wants. This is PART of what freedom is about.

    However, as a consumer, I have the FREEDOM to choose what products to buy and I am FREE not to support any company that does what I consider to be anti American things.

    Freedom goes both ways. Here is an idea for you. Go to Somalia and tell your boss that you want to get rid of Eid and replace it with Labor Day. We will see the film of your head coming off on the Internet.

    This is America and when Dhimmis like you start acting like it is America we will be better off.

    Good post Doggie. I wonder why folk like Whayden have problems with folk who are pro-assimilation, anti-dhimmitude? I also wonder why folk like Whayden have such difficulty reading the so called “writing on the wall.”

    Whayden, Most “Religious” Muslims truly believe that they are called by Allah to take over the world. Is that what you have no problem with?

    You don’t see the problem in it? This is the United State of America. We recognize American holidays. Muslim holidays hold no rightful place in our culture. They never have. Racist against Muslims? You mean the ones without bombs strapped to their bodies. They should get no consideration in this country.

    Tyson is is the equivalent of a sweat shop. Only one that process’s chicken.

    A few years ago in So. Indiana a worker was killed when he drowned in a vat.

    I will never buy a Tyson product ever again. They have gone to far this time.

Prejudiced against muslims YOU BET,, when they come here and require the U S businesses change their practices to accomondate their religion and wave it in our face as more important then any other religion! They demand prayer time at work!? Then go home and go to church! When was the last time any religous entity in the U S demand that we have time at work to PRAY! ?
    Their new policy is an insult to my intelligence!
    At work they should focus on their work and not their religion! When in the U S you go by our rules NOT THEIRS! If you dont like it GO HOME!

    “Whayden’s Anthithisis : Whayden won’t see the problem right up until the time the Muslims say “Convert or die.” And maybe not then!!'”

    I wholeheartedly agree. Sadly, too many in this country are completely blinded and 100% naive to the ulterior motives of religions like Islam. Every step taken is done to reach the goal of being the sole world religion. Why is it that we can’t see even a GLIMPSE of this until something drastic like 9/11 happens? And then, some time passes, and we forget. What is it going to take to open peoples’ eyes? It’s a matter of wanting truth, and people do not want truth. They want “equality” and equal “rights”. What about the rights of the employees who are not Muslim? As an American, you could not walk into another country and demand that they forfeit their national holidays in favor of American traditions. Why should it be any different here? We are so concerned with “offending” people that we can’t see what’s going on right under our own noses.

    A big thank you, Big Dog, for helping to expose the lies.

  15. WHayden says:

    I appreciate all of the attack responses to my last post. I honestly don’t know where to start. I support the right of Tyson employees to quit if they don’t like the holiday change. I support the right of everyone else to boycott Tyson for any and all reasons. However, I also support Tyson’s right to make changes in their own private workplace. I am woefully aware of the slippery slope here and of course I am anti-terrorist. But being anti-terrorist does not equate to being anti-Muslim any more than being anti-criminal makes me be anti-people. In America, we judge individuals on their character and their behavior. If one Jewish person blows up a Catholic church we don’t round up and punish all of the Jews. Instead, we seek out the bomber and punisher him or her. I am fully against giving special religious treatment to any religion. However, this is a private company where the Muslims are the majority workforce. What if the majority of the workforce were Christian and they asked to trade another day around Christmas for Labor Day. Would any of you still be upset? I don’t think so. If you support America, you must support the individual’s right. One of those rights is the ability to form groups and become majorities and like it or not, get your own way. Finally, I reached this blog from the American Conservative Party website. Gee, do you really think I am anti-American?

  16. Angi says:

    Whayden –

    I appreciate your point of view. But here are my problems with what you’ve stated.

    I agree, we need to judge individuals on their character and behavior, and you’re right, if one Jewish person blew up a Catholic church we wouldn’t round up and punish all Jews. However, we are not “rounding up and punishing” any and all Muslims we can get our hands on. Some people argue that racial profiling is wrong – but I have to say, if a terrorist group of white Americans went and bombed another country and then I wanted to either move to that country or go there on vacation, I would fully expect to be subject to racial profiling against white people. It wouldn’t offend me, because I would understand that that nation was doing what they needed to do to protect themselves.

    We are doing what needs to be done in the Middle East, whether the entire strategy was correct or not. Islam is a religion that is KNOWN to be violent whenever necessary, and is KNOWN to believe that anyone who does not believe the same as them deserves to die. They make that no secret. Of course I do not believe that every single Muslim in the world wants to massacre Christians, but there are many, many groups that do, whether they are “terrorists” or not – it is part of the religion as a whole.

    Still, that’s neither here nor there when it comes to doing away with a Federal holiday. It is dishonoring to Americans to cancel a Federal United States holiday that was specifically CREATED to honor the hard-working Americans in this country and give them a day off. If these Muslim workers truly wanted to be integrated into the American society, they would be happy with Labor Day and let it be – but that’s not what they want. They don’t want to be Americans. Like it or not, they DO want special treatment. As a whole, like I previously stated, they DO want to take over.

    You asked, if the majority of the workforce was Christian and wanted another Christine holiday in place of Labor Day, would anyone be upset? As a matter of fact, yes, I would be upset. I don’t believe that ANY religious group, be they Christian or Muslim or Catholic or Buddhist, should be given the right to eliminate Federal holidays that are a part of the American tradition and replace them with their own RELIGIOUS holidays.

    Finally, in addition to Tyson catering to an extremist religious group in order to avoid offending any of them, they are known to be large supporters of illegal immigrants, and are known to hire many of them. It would not surprise me if half of the Muslims they are afraid of offending are here in this country illegally.

    Also, Tyson is known to do much of their trading with Iran. And, anyone who thinks Iran is not a terrorist nation and is not a threat to the U.S. and the world is blind.

    Those are my thoughts. 🙂

    You’ve obviously missed the point that your teacher tried to tell you about in school…..in a democracy, the majority rules.

    You’re very quick to point out that “500 workers get screwed” while ignoring the fact that 700 workers are getting what they requested.

    You seem to think that because a majority of the workers have a different religion than YOU, then YOU are right and THEY are wrong.

    This concept of “WE ARE RIGHT AND YOU ARE WRONG” explains why so-called Christian religions will decline……you’re simply NOT able to be accommodating.

  18. Adam says:

    I love to watch right wing nut jobs foaming at the mouth over Muslims.

    Get the pop corn, folks, those wily “muzzies” are at it again!

    The math is clear, folks. Everybody knows that Muslim Americans count as less than 1/2 of an American. This means at Tyson there are 500 REAL Americans and 350 FALSE Americans. How dare 350 FALSE Americans try to impose their will on REAL Americans!

    And why stop there? What about the Hispanic workers that Tyson employs? They aren’t even ANY kind of American, they shouldn’t even get off for AMERICAN HOLIDAYS, let alone FALSE AMERICAN HOLIDAYS!

    Send all 700 Muslims at Tyson to GITMO where terrorists belong and hire REAL AMERICANS to replace them!

  19. Big Dog says:

    Adam,
    I am surprised because you are usually more intelligent and less juvenile. The FACT is that something was TAKEN away from one group of workers to appease another.

    There are many ways this could have been worked out and this is not one of the best.

    This IS America and we celebrate AMERICAN holidays. I know that is tough for Flag burning commie sympathizers to understand but it is a fact.

    The Muzzies could well be Americans. However, they are not entitled to special treatment.

    If they want to take off on that holiday, that is what leave is for. And, maybe you should have spent some of that time in college learning what Ramadan celebrates…

  20. Big Dog says:

    AmEx,
    Maybe you missed it in school, we don’t live in a Democracy. If the majority rules then explain this:

    1. The majority of Americans want “Under God” left in the pledge.

    2. The majority of Americans want to allow prayer in school.

    3. The majority of Americans want to drill for our own oil.

    and there are countless other items the majority wants but are not able to obtain. The majority does not rule.

    In the case of Tyson, the union negotiated and screwed people out of a FEDERAL holiday (Eid is not one of those).

    Tyson is free to do what it wishes. But let me be clear, so am I and all the others who wish to stop buying their products. They can do what they want, let them suffer the consequences.

  21. Big Dog says:

    By the way AmEx, taking from one and giving to another is not accommodating. Allowing the non Muslims to have off on Labor Day and the Muslims off on Eid is an accommodation. Allowing the Muzzies to have a liberal leave policy for the religious holidays is an accommodation. Taking from one and giving to another is not.

    If you want to discuss it though, tell me in which Muslim country people are free to read a Bible or where a Christian religion can build a church. None exists because they will allow NOTHING except Islam.

    In America we allow them to practice their religion unobstructed.

    Don’t talk to me about accommodation until you understand the concept!

  22. Big Dog says:

    WHayden,
    I appreciate your comments and I see your point of view.

    Yes, if any group tried to change a federal holiday for some other religious holiday I would be upset. There were better ways to handle this than the way they did it. As a private company they have the right to do it but as a private citizen I have the right to disagree with the action by not supporting the company.

    I don’t think you are anti American but I think some of your points minimize the issue. Like saying if one Jew blew up a place would we round them all up. First of all, we are not rounding anyone up. Second, if ONLY one Muslim had blown something up there would not have been a 9/11. Look at most acts of terror over the last 20-30 years and they have been committed by Muslims in the name of Islam.

    Who stood up for the non Muslim workers? I also ask you to think about this. Suppose in two years Tyson has a huge turn over and the workforce demographics change. Now it is 500 Muslim and 700 non Muslim. When they renegotiate the contract and the majority wants to do away with Eid and bring back Labor Day, what response do you think we will see?

    The Muzzies would be up in arms, CAIR would be filing lawsuits and there would be screams of anti Muslim discrimination. The company would end up capitulating and having both holidays to keep the Muzzies happy.

    You see any of that from the non Muslim workers?

  23. Adam says:

    I am surprised you expect me to respond with anything but sarcasm and cynicism to you and your right wing nut job fans illogical hatred of all things Muslim. We are not and never will be at war with Islam itself. Heaven help us if we were because we’d lose.

    I’d wager for the majority of you kooks that terrorism and illegal immigration are just your two best excuses for hating dark skinned people. After all there’s no logic in hating millions of people based on the actions of a small percentage, right? At least none that I can find…

  24. Big Dog says:

    How could we lose a war with Islam? They are not capable of fighting a full scale war.

    You assume that we hate dark skinned people. This is a moonbat talking point. Anyone who is against ILLEGAL immigration must hate dark skinned people. Anyone who wants to fight terrorists must hate dark skinned people. I bet you are one of those whack jobs who believes anyone who does not vote for the Messiah hates dark skinned people.

    Why don’t you put the claims of racism where the sun does not shine? I am tired of liberals calling me a racist for wanting to follow the law or wanting to defeat our enemies. Liberals are the most racist group of people in the world and they project that onto others. Just to be clear, it has NOTHING to do with skin color.

    You see, you FAIL the logic test. None of us hates millions of Mexicans. We just hate the ones who break the law. We don’t even hate them, we hate what they do.

    We don’t hate millions of Muslims, we hate the ones who are trying to impose their will upon us. We hate the ones who are trying to kill us. No one claimed to hate every single one. Once again, you are parroting the liberal mantra. Do they put implants in you moonbats or do you blindly follow because you have no sense?

    I pray you never have to suffer the consequences of your ignorance.

  25. Schatzee says:

    First, just for clarify, I believe we live in a Republic, not a democracy.

    I think it’s a great point BD makes about the majority not ruling on my cases. It’s not about being Muslim – I don’t like it that atheists are trying to change the pledge and pretend that the majority of our founding documents (federal and state) include some mention of the Creator. We are in the majority on most of these issues, yet our voices are not heard and recognized.

    Most Americans want secured borders and sanctions for hiring illegals. Again, the majority is not being listened to or even acknowledged for the most part on this issue.

    I don’t hate everything Muslim – but I do have a strong disregard for any religion that believes I must convert to their beliefs or be considered an infidel and killed. From what I have read, that is exactly what Islam teaches and that is offensive. Any submission to that religion of hate and intolerance, to me, is unacceptable.

  26. Adam says:

    It obviously touches a nerve to call you racist over Islam but the proof is in black and white on your site going back for years and years.

    Our enemy is Islamic Extremism, not Muslims in the United States who lobby their union bosses to get a day off that is sacred to the MAJORITY of workers at the factory where they work. Yet any little thing about Muslims and you’re up in arms calling for boycotts and vomiting out your mouth about their prophet molesting children.

    There’s simply no way around it. You hate anything having to do with Islam or Muslim people and hide behind terrorism as an excuse to do so.

  27. Big Dog says:

    It touches a nerve because jackasses on the left use racism as an attack for everything. I would certainly rail against any other group that lobbied to get days off but the Muslims are the only ones doing it.

    Yes, I do not like the religion of Islam. It teaches that one must convert or be killed. That is their belief and it is in their book. I have no problem with any person of any faith who believes that I have as much right to my religion as they do to theirs. I have met Muslims in this country who feel that way. They are violating the teaching of Islam.

    And not to point this out to a college educated fellow like you but Islam is not a race and neither is Muslim. therefore, I cannot be a racist if I feel any animosity toward either group.

    that is the problem with liberals, they have screamed racism so often they don’t even know what it is. Islam is a religion, not a race. There are three races with regard to anthropology, Caucasoid, Mongoloid and Negroid (might be replaced with Congoid)

    Other terms are not racial and certainly not a term that describes a religion. The word Muslim means one who submits to God and is used to describe adherents to Islam, once again, not a race.

    If they educated people there would be less confusion.

    Also, Mohammad took a 9 year old girl as his wife. That makes him a child molester.

  29. StillStanding says:

    Great post Bigdog – agree 100%. Tyson has been off our list for some time due to previous illegal alien (notice I did NOT say mexican) support, and now to bow down to the almost unnoticed influences of islam (is-a-lie) on our country is appalling. It starts at this level and within our local communities, slowly growing its influential tentacles until it has captured our state and national leadership. It is true – believe or die – is their mantra and creed, if you don’t believe any of this, take some time and read the kuran. BTW – how can Barak Osama walk away from these influences, he will bring them upon us all, on top of his already extremely liberal government domination of our lives and freedoms. McCain in 08.

  30. Adam says:

    Unfortunately I didn’t call you a racist for simply hating Muslims. But don’t let the facts get in the way of a good rant about the problem with liberals and racism.

  31. Reason says:

    I will boycott Tyson Foods as well, replacing a traditional American Federal holiday with a religious one is wrong. Especially when there is a simple solution that does not require eliminating a Federal holiday.

    The Muslim workers could all elect to work Labor Day and get a floating holiday to use for their religious holiday. Its common practice and doesn’t require any changes to nationally recognized holidays and becoming a dhimmi corporation. Also they have personal vacation and holidays they can use for their holy days. How would the Liberals feel if a bunch of Christians decided they didn’t want off on MLK Jr.’s birthday but would rather have Good Friday or the Monday after Easter as a holiday instead? White Christians are still the majority right?

    As several people have stated the practices of Islam are to implement a global caliphate. This means Islam is the only religion (aside from the enslaved Peoples of the Book) and Sharia is the only law. Their goals are accomplished with many tools, terrorism being only one of them. Other methods are to subvert and/or change the laws of the people/place they are trying to bring into dar-al-Islam. Why fight a war when you can have lawyers, politicians, and educators do it with relatively little bloodshed funded by their own petrodollars?

And Every lilly-livered little nut-bag like you who spoke and said, “well, excuse me, er…sir! That isn’t right! You are wrong because you hate!” I would shot you too.

    So be carful Adam, if I run for King of the world, little tiny America hatwers like you wont be an under-class; you will become an underground.

    I hate muslims because they don’t share their women. And I am free to hate them for it.

    Why? Eaten too much Tyson Turkey?

  33. Reason says:

    Mohammad took a six year old as a wife in his 50s, he graciously waited until she was nine to consummate the marriage. So yeah he was a pedophile, especially by today’s standards, and sets the precedent for female children to be sexually abused at nine since he is considered the “model Muslim” and anything he did cannot be criticized in Muslim dominated areas.

  34. Big Dog says:

    Adam,
    What does this imply?

    It obviously touches a nerve to call you racist over Islam but the proof is in black and white on your site going back for years and years.

    You stated ISLAM. Now you are doing the typical liberal tact of lying out of a position.

    I have not made racist remarks on this blog. I have done things that the uneducated consider racist like hang a noose, which is a free speech issue.

    However, there is no racism (from me). Only people who see racism every time the wind blows.

  35. Big Dog says:

    Good point Reason:
    How would the Liberals feel if a bunch of Christians decided they didn’t want off on MLK Jr.’s birthday but would rather have Good Friday or the Monday after Easter as a holiday instead? White Christians are still the majority right?

    People like Adam would call you a racist even if the majority of workers in a place went for it. Look at how states were treated when they did not recognize MLK as a federal holiday. They were called racists.

  36. Reason says:

    From an interview with Mark Colvin:

    AYAAN HIRSI ALI: “Islam, as a creed, is the problem, depending on how you define the problem and I define it as the ideas of Mohammed are incompatible with the ideas that liberal secular democracies are based on.

    And I also want to emphasize that it’s not Muslims as in individuals, because they’re varied, they’re very diverse. Some Muslims are a problem, some Muslims are not, some Muslims are apathetic, but Islam as a system of ideas is incompatible with liberal democracy as a system of ideas.”

    I’d not go quite as extreme as Joe, because I recognize that there are individuals in Islam and groups within Islam that are not bent on global domination and subjugation. However the practice of Taqiyya certainly makes it difficult to tell and paves the way for polices that blanket all Muslims as the enemy of Western ideals.

    I stand by the very fact that if Islam itself taught what these terrorist douchebags believed and what you accuse them all of thinking then that is a war we could not win. Islam is the largest religion in the world, like it or not, and we are not at war with the majority of the world. In fact we are allies with many majority Muslim nations including almost half of our NATO allies. That doesn’t matter though right? Cave dwelling backwards assholes flew planes into our towers and now all of the sudden every Muslim in the world is our enemy.

  40. Big Dog says:

    Once again, the brown skinned people was a talking point that has no relevance and is designed to throw insults and cast people as racists when they clearly are not. However, Mexican (most illegal immigrants) is not a race either.

    You really are not good at this. Islam is a problem because of what it teaches. Reason stated it well and you can believe what you wish. However, we don’t hate all Muslims because not all of them are bad people. However, when a group like CAIR comes here and makes demands and causes problems, it does nto sit well.

    Those people who were not born here or are not citizens are free to leave any time they want. Why don’t you go with them and see how long you last in their country. you can get an idea of what it is really about.

The only logical conclusion I can come up with is you’re a xenophobic brown skin hating white man hiding behind the boogie men of terrorism and illegal immigration. You haven’t done much to prove that theory wrong…

  42. Reason says:

    Adam you are a fool, you spew forth on about topics you know very little about. You obviously know little of Islam, the fact that it is not merely a religion but includes laws that govern just about every aspect of life. Look up Sharia Law, then look up news stories about how Muslims in Europe are trying to get Sharia Law implemented in secular nations.

    Which half of the 26 member nations of NATO are Islamic nations? Turkey, and it struggles constantly against those that would turn it from a secular nation into a theocracy under Sharia Law. Others like France, England, and Germany are starting to see “no go Muslim areas” where non-Muslims and the police fear to tread. The increasing Muslim populations are slowly eroding the Western laws and ideals and using some of our own ideals like Multiculturalism to undermine our societies.

    Answer this Adam, if Islam is a religion of peace why are Muslims at the heart of nearly every violent conflict across the planet? Why are there regular news stories of violence on the part of Muslims motivated by Islam? Can you explain that? We’ve got quite a few “Radical Christians” but you don’t often see them perpetrating violence.

    It is the fundamental difference of Christianity and Islam, one promotes and peace & tolerance (even if its adherents don’t always practice it) the other promotes violence and oppression towards those who do not believe (even if its adherents don’t always practice it). Most other major religions are generally pretty peaceful as well, at least they have no doctrine advocating the slaughter and enslavement of non-believers.

    I guess you’d have to get me a list of what you consider violent conflicts on the planet and we’ll see which of those involve Muslims and which do not.

    Is it possible to quantify the amount of cause or blame that Islam is responsible for in the conflicts that have Muslims involved so that you could reasonably say that Islam is a cause of the conflict?

    I will personally boycott Tyson Foods products. I plan to do this while grocery shopping not simply by leaving Tyson Foods product on the shelves and freezer/refrigerated cases, but rather culling them at the check out line. I’m sure grocers will soon recognize the decline in Tyson Foods product sales, but this will make it very obvious very soon to the store management that at least one customer strongly objects to them carrying Tyson Foods products. I encourage others to consider the same action.

    Adam,
    Your opinion is that I hate brown people and that my dislike of people is based on illogical ideas. I do not dislike Mexicans. I dislike illegal aliens (most of whom are Mexican) and I dislike them because they are breaking the law and are a burden on our economy. In addition they are responsible for crimes that would not happen if they were where they belong. There is nothing illogical about expecting people to obey the law. I know you have a hard time with that being a liberal. Liberals believe laws are flexible.

    I dislike Islamic terrorists and people who are strict adherents to Islam because their religion teaches that I must convert or die, it is ok for them to lie to advance Islam and that they must spread Islam throughout the world. It is not illogical to be against a cult that threatens your existence. Like Reason pointed out, one only needs to look at Europe. The bombing in China was done by Muslims. Name another religion that runs around bombing people and killing indiscriminately.

    I have no hatred for anyone in those groups who wants to live their lives, let me live mine and obey the law.

    However, I do hate most liberals regardless of their skin color.
