During downtime at the Brentwood fire station, Tarick Ali played with D.C. firefighters in every sports game going, but especially basketball. On the court, he carried the nickname "chin checker" -- a man unafraid to make contact, especially with trash talkers on the court.

But Ali had an Achilles' heel in his game -- his footwear -- which left welts on his feet.

"He would never wear basketball shoes. He would only wear Chuck Taylors," laughed John Barnes, a firefighter and friend, referring to the old-school sneakers that gave Ali blisters. "When he came inside, you saw the smoke coming off his feet."

It was this set-in-his-ways demeanor that led to a defining moment of his 16-year firefighting career, when Ali was forced to choose between his profession and a beard demanded by his Islamic beliefs.

Ali and five other D.C. firefighters made headlines in May 2001 when they filed a federal lawsuit alleging that then-Fire Chief Ronnie Few illegally interfered with their religious beliefs by ordering them to cut their hair or trim their beards to conform with the department's grooming policy.

Everyone, everywhere has to conform to their hate filled Satan worshipping ideology or they will sue the crap out of you...
