So I offer you instead the analogy of a large multi-instrument orchestra. In a far corner of the ensemble sits someone with a triangle or cymbals - very minor components of the ensemble. But, nevertheless, each remains a critical piece that contributes vitally to the organically evolving performance. When the lowly triangle or the cymbals speak, even the mighty strings and the pianos listen, and no one can then deny that the whole is greater than the sum of the parts. This is an interesting analogy because not all noises belong in an orchestra and all of the instruments need to play to the same sheet of music. If they don't, the results are dissonant, unpleasant, and unconstructive. The same thing happens to a society when people don't play to the same broad culture. That doesn't mean that there is no place for Sikhs or other people but it does mean that they shouldn't be trying to tear the country down.

"
Would it be accurate if you said it about black folks?" By my experience, no. Blacks in general are Christian, and thus have the benefit of the Holy Spirit's guidance. I've known very few blacks that have the violent and antisocial traits that are so dominating with the Sikhs.

I recently rewatched a documentary on Max Ernst, the artist. He was German born but moved to France. During WWI he was arrested on the grounds that German citizens posed a threat to the security of France. He was married but that did not matter. Someone spoke out on his behalf and he was released but he was eventually arrested again. That's rather misleading as written. You make it sound as though Ernst was arrested and released, only to have the French change their minds and arrest him again.
The truth is that there was a great outcry over the arrest of Ernst and he was justly released as there was no cause for arrest save that he was of German descent.
He was arrested again in France, true. However it was the Gestapo that picked him up the second time, not the French. Luckily he escaped from the Germans and made it successfully to our shores.
