A teacher in a public school wanted three weeks off to take a pilgrimage to Mecca. The EEOC investigated and found that the school discriminated against the teacher by denying her the time off, and the EEOC referred the matter to Eric Holder and the Obama Administration's Department of Justice, which took the ball and ran with it against the school district. They want the school to adopt policies accommodating teachers' religious beliefs, such that Muslims can take time off during the Hajj to take their pilgrimage.
Apparently, the problem is that the woman was asked to choose between her job and her religious beliefs. Well....yeah...like Jewish teachers who might want time off during Hanuka, or Kwanzaa followers who might want Kwanzaa off....or
I mean - three fucking weeks? You're going to saddle children with a substitute teacher for three weeks while this turd of a teacher goes to fucking Mecca?

Way to waste our money again!
