Hi Lola -

I don't know many Sikh people but the ones I have met were very good people. I do think it's a shame for Sikhs to be targeted, when they are not Muslims. A Sikh man will never take off his turban, so there is no way to hide.

But it's also wrong to target Muslims, and all people from the Middle East. Some neighbors are Coptic Egyptians - you know and I know they are Christians, but they are still scared.

I think Muslims are speaking out. We need to listen.

And yet....

.....Sikhs are a warrior class......just like the Pathans are.

Shows the difference in tolerance in various religions.

If a Sikh did anything remotely resembling what the Muslim terrorists did the other Sikhs would hang him themselves ... I'm sure of it.

Please dont hang someone (it is an equally criminal act). just cast your mind back to events like the incidents at the Golden Temple in Amritsar a few years ago, and subsequent events.

cheers, kumar
