The couple claims that a the Muslim lady addressed them quite aggressively, telling them they were irresponsible parents and that they were being racist singing the song citing a reference to pork, which forbidden by Islam. She then told the bus driver that they were being racist towards her. The driver told the couple that had to get off the bus or the police would have to come.
Of course there is such a thing as one culture influencing another in the world. But at what point does influence become too much? Is terminating something so basic as a very common food group or parential relations enough?
The couple claim that when they complained to the bus driver on September 8, they were told that it would be ‘easier’ if they got off and walked the remaining two miles to their home.
‘She went up to the bus driver and told him we were being racist towards her. The driver came up to me and said we had to get off the bus or the police would have to come.’
Mr Branfield said, ‘He just said: “Go now, otherwise you’ll hold up all the passengers and no-one will be happy.” It was humiliating.’
The bus company said they are investigating the incident, but that the driver disputes the claim that allegations of racism were involved.
Brandon Jones, head of external relations at the First bus group said: ‘The investigation is ongoing but we have viewed CCTV footage. It does show the customer leaving the bus at the location he describes and it does show a conversation between a lady customer on the bus and the driver, and the driver speaking to the customer.
‘We’re speaking with our driver and with the customer to clarify the circumstances in which they left the bus. At this point I’m not in a position to confirm that they were forced to leave.
‘It is clear they left the vehicle. The driver responded to a customer complaint on the service. There was a single complaint from a passenger, she was an Asian lady.’
‘The driver told us he heard no reference to racism but we are investigating the incident and have not yet drawn a conclusion.’
South Yorkshire Police said it was not investigating the incident.
Whose fault is this? We let this stuff happen. Who is going to stop it? How long before thi$#%&!@*s our streets?
The fact that you claim to work at a Christian organization but spout hate offends me. Read the gospels again and then read this article. There is nothing in here that says the Muslim woman said anything to the driver.
Did anyone making hateful remarks actually read the article? “‘It is clear they left the vehicle. The driver responded to a customer complaint on the service. There was a single complaint from a p$#%&!@*enger, she was an Asian lady.” Not too many Asian Muslims around but this couple must have found the unicorn
Then Nick Kubr who did she inform that she was offended. On most buses I know about there is only one individual in charge and that’s the driver. And Nick reading the Gospels and Revelation tells me exactly what God will do to muslims in the End Time. I am offended by muslims as should any Christian.
You are a Hater I never said the word HATE ! I think we as a Nation need to keep them at a distance to stay safe . And I never said I was a Christian did I ! And You are a Liberal and think that the Nuke deal with Iran is ok right . You sir are an Idiot .
