This is a perfect example of my position that I stated earlier.
If it was as simple as just removing all pork products from a certain area of the store or a specific store then they should try to do that. The problem is that some people who do not read English and buy based on the label are ending up with products that contain pork. If it is not too much trouble they should address this problem.
But if it really something that would cause a lot of expense and trouble then the Muslims are going to have to find a way to help themselves. Perhaps the local mosque could provide a "food screening" service. You can never blame any group for asking for assistance with a problem. But if they really start picketing or protesting I think that is out of line.
Too many people just dig in their heels and take a hard line stance without even looking at the facts of each situation.
