12'o Clock joke

[S1ngh]

Gurfateh to all!

There is another real incident that happend in Chicago. S.Jagdev Singh Bhattal is a owner of Punjab Auto works and a turbuned Sikh.He happened to be going to his garage when three muslims riding in a friend's Taxicab remarked 'wah sardara bara baj Gaye'.Satti as we call him swirled around and brought his car in front of their cab.He avoided physical skirmish but assured them action.

He alongwith Arthur Robb, attorney, went to the Shoenberger, a jewish-lady Transport Commisioner and requested for action after giving the Cab number of hooligans.She was sympethetic and assured action of cancelling the medallion licence with a fine.She then asked why they say Sardarji's 12,oclock, satti replied that it is a communal teasing.She was confident that there must be a basis for it, Satti was not sure. How smart of her,She called for a court hearing on his complaint and besides fining the Muslim driver $750/- and asking for apology from others, she read out a copy of material from the Sikhnet site that stated somewhat....

12'O clock story Sikhs' proud tradition

In the times of Afghan and Mughal invasions Sikhs used to live in the Jungles and fought hit and run warfare, as these muslim soldiers used to sleep, the Sikhs used to raid the camps and killed the guards that watched Hindu girls and boys meant for slave trade in Kabul around midnight, and in the melee and confusion, half asleep soldiers would say that 'get up everybody 'sikhan de bara baj gaya' (It is 12 o'clock of the Sikhs),

being in small numbers this warfare practice continued till they could establish their own kingdom in later Eighteenth cen

tury...

Madam Shoenberger told Satti that you have you have a great tradition and you should be proud of it.If somebody reminded you of this you must thank him.

Let us learn from grand traditions that our forefathers practised and not to be cowed down by the likes of Modi, Tytlers or SajjanKumars.
