    I don't know that they'd have a problem selling prepackaged bacon, since they wouldn't have to touch the actual product.

      You literally can't get away from politics mud in Virginia. I've visited there several times and you really really can't. News are REALLY saturated with it and people talk about issues. Even at my aunt's home. Man.

        In this case though, the technicality looks like a violation of department policy rather than belief.
        Considering the large number of Muslims around here who run convenience stores where beer is sold...

          I've had American beer - I'd be reluctant to class it as alcoholic.

              You'd be surprised how many people manage to drink enough of it to get hammered.

              Most places sell at least some decent (craft) beer now, however.

                The problem Islam has with alcohol is not that it is unclean, but that Arabs (the culture on which Islam is based) tend to be lacking in self-control; they tend to drink until the alcohol runs out or they've reached capacity, whichever comes first.

                  One of our local stop-n-robs is run by a Muslim who gets a kick out of selling alcohol, cigarettes and porn to "the infidels".
                  The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.
