I don't mean to get religious: but my God I love the Sikhs

[Recursion]

I swear no matter what situation they confront, the Sikhs do it right.

“They took us in. We had nowhere to go,” Lyon said. “Anything I can do to return that 10,000 fold, I would.”

This story of Americans helping one another is made more interesting by the fact that Lyon voted for Donald Trump, who in his first days as president signed an executive order to suspend the refugee program for 120 days

What do we need in this country? More Sikhs, if you ask me.

1. One of my favorite places in the world is the Golden Temple in India.

It is not only beautiful but they feed over 60,000 people a day. The food is pretty good too!

4. I've been there; it's amazing

The food was really, really good, btw

no matter what religion (or no religion) and eat a meal... and it's home cooked (vegetarian) wonderfulness.

5. Tweets announced that a long list of temples in the area would take in anyone evacuated

There were 7 locations on the list when I saw it, and more were being added.

On Twitter: "Sikh Temples offering food and shelter ... open to ALL evacuated people"

7. Lovely people.

However, I would never enrage a Sikh man - men are supposed to have a knife in their turbans as part of their traditional garb.

The guidelines of their faith encompass all. Horrendous that they have been confused with "Islamic Fundamentalist Terrorists" by idiots seeing their head gear and beards.

9. This man's time voting? He somehow thinks no vetting takes place at all... Trumps base needs to get

out and see the world isn't some horrible place to be and not everyone who wasn't born here a terrorist or a threat to his very survival. I will agree Sikhs are terrific as are many Muslims. It's a shame they've been raked through the coals....
