"That Gym Locker is the 357th Most Holy Islamic Shrine, Stupid Infidels!"
No wonder the original report was thin on the details of this alleged "insensitivity".A Muslim woman in Dearborn, Mich., lodged a complaint Tuesday against Fitness USA for an alleged civil rights violation involving a fellow gym patron. According to Jodi Berry, executive director of Fitness USA, Wardeh Sultan was praying in front of another members locker when the member wanted access to her belongings inside the locker. The inconvenienced patron tried to interrupt Ms. Sultan, but she remained prostrate in front of the locker and an altercation ensued. A manager was called into the locker room to intervene. Ms. Sultan later complained that the Fitness USA management was unconcerned about the humiliation she suffered when her prayers were interrupted. Probably not as much humiliation as you're gonna get once everyone finds out you pray in the general direction of stinky tube socks and spandex. She stated that the gym personnel were insensitive, rejected her complaints and did not satisfactorily intervene on her behalf. Ms. Sultan further reported that the manager told her, You have to respect her (the other patron), but she does not have to respect your god.
