A Sikh student from New Zealand who broke strict religious protocol by taking off his turban to help save the life of a child hit by a car has been heralded as a hero.
Harman Singh, 22, removed his turban to cradle the bleeding head of a five-year-old boy who had been struck on his way to school in Takanini, South Auckland.
Could not fit actual title due to length. Title should read:

Always hate it when these people accidentally get targeted after a muslim terrorist attack. The seem pretty decent folk.
Never met Sikh I didn’t like.
A muslim would have let him die.
You never saw Wrath of Kahn did you?
Did not. But as I said, I’ve never met Sikh I didn’t like. Among the best people in NYC AFAIC.
I know some muslims that I don't think would.
Knew a few in my college days. They were great people and I have seen nothing in the last 40 years to change that opinion.
"Strict religious observation" must give way to necessity.
I know many (my town has the second largest Iraqi refugee population in the US) and I don’t think one of them would have lifted a finger to save him. Unless there was a dollar to be made. Then they would likely have fought each other over the chance.
LOL! None of us has actually met Khan Noonien Singh. If we had ... who knows?
I knew a muslim street vendor who insisted on giving me coffee and donuts in the morning when he learned I was laid off.
Egyptian, if that makes a difference. Seems a cultural difference.
I know it’s funny. Honestly, where was the Aryan nation born? Not skin heads in the U.S, not the Nazis ... It was a concept from India.
Never ever confuse Sikhs with low life vile scummy mussies...ever.
Are they allowed to remove it for an emergency?
If their e-mom told them to, they would kill you.
Well, I admit, I've wondered about that.
Here's an example of how our Iraqi friends have acclimated to life in America.

I know. That’s where the Nazis picked up the use of the swastika. It’s like “Caucasian.” Who’s Caucasian? Georgians, Armenians, Chechens.
Ricardo Montalban, of course, was of Spanish ethnicity, born in Mexico. Spanish people - my boss is one - consider themselves objectively superior to all of those folks wreaking havoc with the Spanish language!
Sikhs have an interesting application of the Hindu notion of non-violence. Every baptized Sikh is supposed to always carry a sword or dagger so as to be able to defend the innocent against violence.
Sort of: If you’re not non-violent, I kill you.
