Pouring through the gates, these men are part of a mob of religious zealots who went on the rampage in protest at the sale of meat and alcohol in a Sikh community centre.
The CCTV image has been released by police in an attempt to bring to justice the vandals who stormed the building and wrecked the kitchens.
The trouble erupted after managers at the centre agreed to serve alcohol and meat at a private party that night, but practising Sikhs heard about the plan and organised a demonstration.

So what does this have to do with the US?
Those guys aren't representative of Sikhs at all, either, if that's what your going for.

We'll all be better off when ALL religions are banned outright. Retarded crap like this happens from time to time with all religions!

There I've said it!

You need to understand that your country has a fair representation of all sects and faiths. For you to believe otherwise is folly.

Mosques and Temples dot your landscape from Texas to New York and operate with the same degree of intolerance. You don't hear about it due to your shear size but, wait for it, events like this are coming to a neighbourhood near you!

You are perhaps unaware that sikhs and other far & mid eastern religious sects are undercutting your commercial transportation industries ability to compete on a level playing field by having those temples and mosques performing broker functions for owner operator's who are accolytes of their faith and whose trucks are "tithing" 10% of their income to those mosques and temples. What tax rate are those temples and mosques paying on that income while engaged in a commercial endeavour?

You people aren't seeing what's taking place right under your very noses!

Yeah really. We shouldn't care what goes on in other countries that have had these immigration changes a bit longer than us.
We should only worry when it happens in the US ..right ?

FWIW..it's called "seeing a trend forming" and sometimes it helps in that you can stop it before it spreads if it's a bad trend.

What is happening in Europe will eventually find it's way here. The United States, and other Western countries such as those in Europe, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, etc are facing many of the same problems: a decline in traditional values, huge tidal waves of immigration endangering national unity and the very fabric of nations.

I don't get it. If they want their Sikh law enforced, why in the world would they move to ENGLAND, which doesn't exactly have a history of having Sikh laws? Seems like it would be a whole lot easier to stay in whatever country they came from. They can stay away from meat and alcohol as much as they like there.
