They're economic migrants, apne sadly do play the asylum card.

Yes, they are. But so are 99.99% of the people coming from Central America or the other countries (Pakistan, Bangladesh, and so on). People catch a flight or ocean ship to Colombia, walk through Panama, and up to the US border. Where do they (99% being non-Sikhs) get the money to do this?

Because all those other people are taking advantage of the system, I am not going to through our people under the bus.

And there is simply no reason for cutting  people's hair.

There is no more reason for confiscating turbans than there is for confiscating bras.

remember akal security was doing the same and worse in immigration centres near mexican border to Singh , this included shaving and cutting the Singh's kesh. And 3HO should be respected as a sikh organisation ...haha I don't think so

Oddly enough, when people from Sikh backgrounds do stuff, our enemies benefit from that more than if others starting being against Sikhs.

That's normal procedure. That's why the government had KS Brar lead the attack on Darbar Sahib as well as other Sikh officers. And KPS Gill later.

I am pretty sure that the border agents responsible for the mistreatment thought that they were mistreating Muslims.

They might or might not think that. The point is, if they were Muslims, then other Muslims already in the US and their allies would be raising hell, getting word out in media, holding demonstrations, and pursuing legal strategies.

Remember, they did manage to halt and drastically reduce the impact of Trump's Muslim ban through such methods: it ended up being not a general ban but rather just a ban on half a dozen countries already on an Obama watchlist.

The reason the Muslims have allies is because Westerners are always afraid of upsetting the Muslims because everybody knows they'll go crazy.

There is more of a reaction when something affects Muslims because there are around 2 billion Muslims in the world.

    • yeh it's true, we shouldn't be lazy and need to learn jhatka shikaar. It doesn't help some of grew up in surrounding areas like Slough and Southall where everyone thought it was super bad for amrit dharis to eat meat, and they were following Sant babas and jathas, and instead the Singhs should have been normalising jhatka just like the recent world war soldiers did. We are trying to rectifiy this and khalsa should learn jhatka.  But I am just writing about bhog for those that are still learning rehit. As I explained, there are all these negative influences in the panth that talk against rehit, but this shouldn't deter us from taking khanda pahul, no matter what level of rehit we are!
    • How is it going to help? The link is of a Sikh hunter. Fine, but what good does that do the lazy Sikh who ate khulla maas in a restaurant? By the way, for the OP, yes, it's against rehit to eat khulla maas.
    • Yeah, Sikhs should do bhog of food they eat. But the point of bhog is to only do bhog of food which is fit to be presented to Maharaj. It's not maryada to do bhog of khulla maas and pretend it's OK to eat. It's not. Come on, bro, you should know better than to bring this Sakhi into it. Is this Sikh in the restaurant accompanied by Guru Gobind Singh ji? Is he fighting a dharam yudh? Or is he merely filling his belly with the nearest restaurant?  Please don't make a mockery of our puratan Singhs' sacrifices by comparing them to lazy Sikhs who eat khulla maas.
    • Seriously?? The Dhadi is trying to be cute. For those who didn't get it, he said: "Some say Maharaj killed bakras (goats). Some say he cut the heads of the Panj Piyaras. The truth is that they weren't goats. It was she-goats (ਬਕਰੀਆਂ). He jhatka'd she-goats. Not he-goats." Wow. This is possibly the stupidest thing I've ever heard in relation to Sikhi.
    • Instead of a 9 inch or larger kirpan, take a smaller kirpan and put it (without gatra) inside your smaller turban and tie the turban tightly. This keeps a kirpan on your person without interfering with the massage or alarming the masseuse. I'm not talking about a trinket but rather an actual small kirpan that fits in a sheath (you'll have to search to find one). As for ahem, "problems", you could get a male masseuse. I don't know where you are, but in most places there are professional masseuses who actually know what they are doing and can really relieve your muscle pains.
