PSikhs for Justice, which describes itself as a U.S.-based human rights advocacy group, said in a statement that it was donating $10,000 to the badly wounded Wisconsin police officer who risked his life in the attack and likely saved many other Sikhs. The officer was taken to a Milwaukee hospital and is expected to survive.

But the group also said the U.S. needed to do a better job protecting Sikhs and members of other religious minorities.”

Hmmmmmm...these two sentences read a little funny, following each other, no? Are they suggesting a cop in every church, synagogue, mosque? Or are they just stupid? Stick a handgun under one of those turbans boys, you’ll be able to defend yourselves. Or do you have a “let’s all be sheep in the pen for the wolves” no handgun policy?

You're right - there aren't enough policemen - or money to hire more - to have them acting a private body guards. We all need to protect ourselves and count on the police to collect evidence after the crime to secure a conviction.

A cop in each place won't help. There are two possibilities: one, that the guy didn't know that Sikhs are different from Mozzies -- in that case better education would help and that's what the Sikh community should do
two, that the guy KNEW, but hated them 'cause they weren't white. In that case, the problem is that very little can be done against a lone-ranger idiot.
