At Least 6 Dead in Shooting at Sikh Temple in Wisconsin
At least one gunman opened fire in a Sikh temple near Milwaukee on Sunday, killing at least six and injuring several others before being shot himself, the police said. The gunman is also believed to have died.
The shootings occurred about 10:30 a.m. at the Sikh Temple of Wisconsin in the town of Oak Creek, just south of Milwaukee, officials said.

Yep, that's not evidence of anything. Well said. Come back with some actual proof without a tinfoil hat.

Perhaps you want to discuss this in the conspiracy theory forums?
The guy never broke a law, all his guns were bought legally. And therefore it must be the government, who urged this hateful man, (and of course the government can read minds and should have known his plans, and thus arrested him and stopped him) to go and shoot up a sikh temple. Nice detective work, Sherlock. |

I have no idea why I've been hearing so many stories about the Sikhs having shit done to them. Just a shitty trend I noticed.
BTW, anyone remember that spat on Reddit wherein assholes were mocking a random Sikh woman, and it turned around when some kinder folk (and even the woman in question) scolded them? Irrelevant, I know. Hate me for it.

I recently read about laws in Canada preventing Sihks from having their ceremonial swords in public.
The reddit thing was fantastic, the user who first posted the photo posted an articulate apology.

I've seen a lot of Sikh crimes over the past 5 or so years as well...a lot of them to older men... I mean this in the U.S.
Balpreet Kaur did a great job with her response and it was really nice to see the original poster respond apologetically and respectfully.
I just love Sikhi culture and beliefs and unfortunately not a lot of people know what it means to be Sikh and only look at the way people look and turbans and make a lot of completely off-base assumptions.
