why the sikh people are waving those swords. What do they mean? What does it symbolize for them? How do they claim themselves as peace loving while whipping swords? These are questions not judgments. Try to explani if you can. I really don%u2019t know or don%u2019t care much about why they are angry. But public protests with youngsters waving swords doesn%u2019t make any group a peace loving one. I myself very angry at my doctor for some reasons (It%u2019s not emotional damage) but I don%u2019t think I can ever conceive putting an awesome sword display before his office. They why and how you can they rationalize these medieval protests in the name of religion. Is there a religious reason behind this or are they just trying to threaten people. So what%u2019s next youngsters whipping AK47s huh%u2026 When i asked a friend of mine he said that that's the way they do it? I asked would he allow his kids to go and join he said NO... what does that say to you....

few people waving swords does not mean the whole Sikh relegion, but if you are so dumb to identify that, then you need to get yourself examined.
If you do not care why they are angry then don't come here and disgust the cyberspace

Easy mate i specifically said my statements are not judgements heck they are not even statements they are questions. I'm asking if you can give me a reason for why are they whipping swords cuz i've seen many protest but never like this one. So if you can give a reason i appreaciate it. If not i think you can leave my questions there cuz i am entitled for my own share of cyberspace savvy..

Joe, where are you from? You just saw some Sikhs guys waving kirpans and you made up your mind eh, did you not think how come? What happened? What made them?
The Sikh religion has been threatened and thus the average Sikh has taken it upon themselves to protect the Religion and punish anyone who comes inbetween the Sikh and the Sikh Religion, thats all

Nothing wrong with what you asked Joe.I saw media images of 100's of sikhs brandishing swords.Maybe all the Sikhs are not the same but thats a religion which allows its members to carry swords and hence patronises violence.
'On' or whoever this guy is has been infamous in this forum for posting senseless comments.No quick thinking there.Everybody shpuld be able to express opinions and the comments section is precisely for that.

On, Your language can easily tell who was born from a Broken Condom.Go get a life and an education,if you still have the gray matter in your head to do so. Abusing or threatening is the easiest way out for a coward or a scoundrel.

If Sikhs were not carrying swords, then probably you all would be in some dark corners of either Afghanstan or in Saudi with the females in your family doing something else. It was we Sikhs who had saved you all from the Mughals and Afghans over the years. So please don't forget that. Now secondly as to why the protest, the protest is for the reason that this fraud Baba who is facing the rape and murder investigations was deliberately imitating the 10th Guru of Sikhs who sacrifised his whole family to protect the hindus and Sikhs. The Guru Gobind Singh preached equality, he preached that it is not only important to be a "Saint" but it is important to be "Saint-Soldiers". So a fraud imitating a Guru is what has angered Sikhs. Specially if you see that they were the ones who first throwed stones at a peaceful march of Sikhs.
Smart Sardarji: A Sardarji and an American are seated next to each other on a flight from Los Angeles to New York. The American asks if he would like to play a fun game.
The Sardarji, tired, just wants to take a nap, so he politely declines and rolls over to the window to catch a few winks.
The American persists and explains that the game is easy and a lot of fun. He says, "I ask you a question, and if you don't know the answer, you pay me five dollars, and vice versa."
Again, he declines and tries to get some sleep.
The American, now agitated, says, "Okay, if you don't know the answer, you pay me $5,and if I don't know the answer, I will pay you $500."
This catches the Sardarji's attention and, figuring there will be no end to this torment, agrees to the game.
The American asks the first question: "What's the distance from the earth to the moon?"
The Sardarji doesn't say a word, reaches into his wallet,pulls out a $5.00 bill, and hands it to the American.
"Okay," says the American, "your turn".
He asks, "What goes up a hill with three legs and comes down with four legs?"
The American, puzzled, takes out his laptop computer & searches all his preferences........no answer. He taps into the air phone with his modem and searches the Internet and the Library of Congress... no answer.
Frustrated, he sends e-mails to all his friends and coworkers but to no avail.
After an hour, he wakes the Sardarji and hands him $500.
The Sardarji thanks him and turns back to get some more sleep.
The American, who is more than a little miffed, stirs the Sardarji and asks, "Well, what's the answer?"
Without a word, the Sardarji reaches into his purse,hands the american $5,and goes back to sleep
A sardarji comes up to the Pakistan border on his bike. He's got two large bags over his shoulders.
The guard Iqbal stops him and says, 'What's in the bags?' 'Sand,' answered the Sardarji.
Iqbal says, 'We'll just see about that. Get off the bike.'
Iqbal's guard takes the bags and rips them apart, he empties them out and finds nothing in them but sand. He detains the sardarji all night and has the sand analyzed, only to discover that there is nothing but pure sand in the bags. Iqbal releases the sardaji, puts the sand into new bags, hefts them onto the sardarji's shoulders, and lets him cross the border.
A week later, the same thing happens. Iqbal asks, 'What have you got?' 'Sand,' says the Sardarji.
Iqbal does his thorough examination and discovers that the bags contain nothing but sand. He gives the sand back to the Sardar, and crosses the border on his bike. This sequence of events is repeated every day for three years.
Finally, the Sardarji doesn't show up one day and the guard, Iqbal, meets him in a 'Dhaba' in Islamabad.
'Hey, Buddy,' says Iqbal, 'I know you are smuggling something. It's driving me crazy. It's all I think about...I can't sleep. Just between you and me, what are you smuggling?'
The Sardaji, sips his Lassi and says, 'Bikes'
Race to the Sun:
Two Sardarjis, both student of I.I.T, Kanpur, were talking about the American Astronauts.
One said to the other, "What's the big deal about going to the moon-anybody can go to the moon. We are sardars we will go direct to the sun."
"But if we get within 13 million miles from the sun, we'll melt."
And the first answered, "So what, we'll go at night."
It's said that sikhs are fighting among themselves an that too in the land of sikhs-Punjab.I suspect that politicians are behind all such acts because they too want sone publicity.
