President Reagan took away their turbans and made them dress like the rest of the GIs.

Sikhism is a distinct religion, separate from Hinduism and Islam, monotheistic and stressing the equality of all men and women.

Sikhs believe in three basic principles; meditating on the name of God (praying), earning a living by honest means as well as sharing the fruits of one’s labor with others, rejecting caste and class systems and emphasizing service to humanity.

By Western standards - they are among the good guys.

Reminds me of why Indira Ghandi changed deodorants; because her Right Guard was killing her.

Starmer lauds British Sikhs

If Punjab was good enough to protect "Little Orphan Annie", time and again, the Sikhs are good enough for me.

They were literally created under the Mughals as a buffer culture between the Hindus and Muslims, with a new religion included in the package. The result was that they were attacked by everyone, which resulted in their being required to wear a ceremonial dagger at least at all times. They became a highly professional and trusted police and military force within the British Empire. Interesting people; I’ve liked the ones I’ve gotten to know.

I swear, I think Starmer is even worse than Bernie Sanders.

Of course, I implied exactly that. Because if Sikhs were Muslim, then lauding them would not be Islamophobic. It’s only “Islamophobic” because Sikhs stand up to Muslims.
