A Sikh bar owner in the US is being hailed as a hero for helping capture the 28-year old Afghan-American wanted for the weekend bombings in New York and New Jersey.
Harinder Bains, the owner of a bar in Linden found Ahmad Khan Rahami sleeping in the doorway of his bar on Monday.
Bains said he was watching news on TV on his laptop from another business across the street.
At first, he thought he was some "drunk guy" resting in the vestibule but then recognised Rahami and called police.
"I'm just a regular citizen doing what every citizen should do. Cops are the real heroes, law enforcement are the real heroes," Bains told. ..... < skip >
Indian-American attorney Ravi Batra told PTI that Bains "dared to honour his Oath of Citizenship to protect & defend the Constitution from enemies foreign and domestic..." ..... < skip >
"He heroically helped save many innocent lives and yet gave credit to law enforcement officers. Harinder Bains certainly did what every responsible citizen in America ought to do. Brave and courageous act!" said the National Sikh Campaign. ..... < skip >

Bomber didn’t know how to play Sikh and hide very well.
Thank you citizen.
If the news doesn't reflect negatively on Trump or can't be manipulated to make it look that way, we typically won't hear about it.
Nice word play...I like how this may irritate some muzzies, too.
Always nice when a citizen is the hero....just like the guy who found that piece of sh** in his boat in Boston. He was brave to even go near the boat. I think LE took over 80 shots at the boat....and still didn’t kill him.
The Sikhs are a force to be reckoned with. They are Indians but not Hindus NOR Muslims. They USED to be India's police and military because NO ONE wanted to mess with them. With those turbans and beards, they would be left alone. The women don't wear turbans but, beards...hmmm. :o)
I am NOT AT ALL surprised that India produced these people, different faith, different customs, different everything.

After January, maybe DJT can get the NEW Joint Chiefs to consider forming a couple divisions of Sikhs to help root out and destroy our invading moslem scum.

Islam is the greatest killing machine in the history of mankind, bar none.
The Islamic conquest of India is probably the bloodiest story in history. — Will Durant, as quoted on Daniel Pipes site.
Conservative estimates place the number at 80 million dead Indians.
According to some calculations, the Indian (subcontinent) population decreased by 80 million between 1000 (conquest of Afghanistan) and 1525 (end of Delhi Sultanate). — Koenrad Elst as quoted on Daniel Pipes site
Sikhs I’ve known are humble great folks.
The way to differentiate Sikh Headwear from Muslim, is the Sikh’s turban Always is wrapped to point to the sky (god).
Islam turbans are coiled like a snake.

I would import a million Sikhs, Gurkhas, and Afrikaners rather than the fake refugees Obama is trying to dump on us.
At least these folks work hard, are smart, want to be loyal citizens, and aren’t part of death cults.
Ask any sikh about the moghul invasion of india and prepare to be educated.
Maybe the ones I encountered were anomalies but what I can say is in a SHTF scenario I would want a Sikh man or women next to me.

===========================================
Muslims don't wear turbans. Only Sikhs do. Saudis wear the thobe (long white dress, long sleeved, high neck) and ghutra (head covering)...but only for special occasions, like a tuxedo. The ghutra is the head covering like a giant scarf, for protection against sand and wind. It was functional THEN. The ghutra is usually red and white checked, just like an Italian tablecloth. They wear the WHITE ghutra for dressy affairs. The band around the ghutra is BLACK. They used it to temporarily tether the camels. Other Arabs wear different colors of ghutras. I think the Palestinians wore black and white ghutras. I can't remember...been too long.
As I said, the ghutra used to be worn as protection from all the sand and wind on the desert. The top-front can be folded into kind of a visor-shape for more protection. They draped the rest of the ghutra over their nose and mouth as more protection. Now they all wear sunglasses...duh. The sun is treacherous.
The men wear regular clothes now for work, all Western. They found that it was IMPOSSIBLE to work in the thobes. Even the Saudi men in the men's banks wear western clothes.
No more Bedouin clothes and they ALL have super-duper A.C. in their homes. They DO go out into the desert sometimes and they DO have their annual camel races, A.K.A. barely controlled chaos.
99.9% of the American men bought one of those outfits, just for show. My hubby bought one and he had his photo taken in the store where he bought it. It's a kick.
His comment on the Saudis and Arabs alike: "They don't think like we do." Understatement!
Very informative link.
Thank you for posting it.
TRUE story regarding a Sikh.
He was hired to work in Silicon Valley and he drove his motorcycle to work every day. HOWEVER, in California EVERY motorcyclist MUST wear a helmet.
Said Sikh wouldn't do it and demanded a religious exception because a motorcycle helmet would NOT FIT over his turban.
The California DMV said: NO way, Jose...HELMET!! Or drive a car.
Lol. That Sikh got himself a HUMOUNGOUS helmet that DID fit over his turban...and he INSTANTLY became the laughing stock of California. It was hilarious!
Apparently he either left and went home to India or started driving a car. He was never seen again. It makes me smile every time I hear of the famous TURBAN.
God bless him. I still smile when I'm reminded of the "turban" story.

The Sikhs wear very colorful and stylish turbans. The unshorn hair custom is something that needs change, however.
