A Gurdwara has been vandalized in Los Angeles suburbs with hateful graffiti addressed towards ISIS, Sikh community leaders have said, fearing this “hate crime” is a repercussion of the California shooting.

“We are concerned about the safety and security of our community members. We are of the opinion that this is a hate crime and that this is a direct result of a possible backlash from the San Bernardino killings,” said Inderjot Singh, president of Sikh Gurdwara in Buena Park, a suburb of Los Angeles.

The incident, which occurred early on Sunday morning is being investigated by local law enforcement agencies.

“The Gurdwara was vandalized during early hours of Sunday and a hateful graffiti was seen on the walls of the Gurdwara and also a truck parked in the parking lot. The graffiti included the phrase, “F@#k ISIS,” and the words “Islam” and other reference of gangs,” Washington-based Sikh Council on Religion and Education said in a statement.

The Gurdwara is attended by over 800 community members on a weekly basis. The White House, which was informed about the incident, has forwarded the incident to the Department of Homeland Security to investigate.

“The Sikh community across the nation is in a heightened state of alert and is deeply troubled by this latest incident. We are appealing to all Sikh place of congregation to be in touch with the local law enforcement agencies as well with the elected officials,” Dr Rajwant Singh of the Sikh Council on Religion and Education, said.

Dr Singh also expressed concern over the recent anti-Muslim rhetoric made by some of the contenders of the American presidency.

“This will directly result in elevated level of violence against minority religions in America and particularly the Sikhs. We are fearful that this kind of hate speech against Muslims with engulf Sikhs and members of the Muslim community across the nation,” he said.

Navjot Singh, a Sikh man living in London and working as an engineer, recently became the subject of brutal racism in Poland. Currently travelling through Europe, Navjot made a pit-stop at a club called Shakers when the incident happened.

“On Saturday night, a bouncer at a nightclub in Poland punched me in the face because I wear a turban.”
“I was refused entrance to Shakers Krakow because my face and dress didn’t correspond to a man’s view of what humanity should look like.”

“I listened while the bouncer verbally abused me, spat at me, and called me a terrorist. I stood my ground while he and his five colleagues surrounded me, and politely explained why his views were offensive.”

“I offered to shake his hand, agree to disagree and move on, and he punched me with so much force that my turban was knocked off my head. My religion and identity lay in a muddy puddle on the ground, to be trampled and trodden underfoot.”

“They (the police) made a note of the bouncer’s details, but told me that I shouldn’t expect the same treatment in Poland that I would get in the UK. That in Poland, white people and brown people are different.”

“I spent the remainder of the night consoling Steve, who couldn’t comprehend what had happened: “After what we saw at Auschwitz this morning, how is it possible that racism can even exist here?”

“I called my girlfriend. She cried, and said that humanity disgusted her. I think she’s wrong, for the record. Humans can be ignorant, unkind, cruel – sometimes worse. But they can also be beautiful.”

Been a subject of racism, Navjot’s positivism is infectious. He is a strong proponent of solidarity and tolerance among people of different races and this is why his reaction to the Poland incident has made such huge waves across the world.

He says, “Humanity isn’t disgusting. Just the views of a minority. And I’d like to think even they can be changed.

Racists and bigots shout loudly. Their words ring out like gun shots, every act of discrimination a bullet in the soul of humanity.

But our solidarity will shame them. Our compassion will silence them. Our tolerance will blind them. And, in time, their shouts will fade to whispers, and there will be no more ammunition.

This 60-year-old got the inspiration from his daughter who was a Down syndrome child. According to him, he himself doesn’t know as to when from a doting father he became enlighten for other parents. “The biggest problem in our society is that parent of such children do not come in open. They keep their children behind closed doors. Due to this, many children with acute disability goes unnoticed. I am trying hard to identify them and bring all of them to a common platform,” said Singh.

The three were honoured by the Department of Social Justice and Empowerment in Ludhiana on the National Disability Day.

Sign The Petition : www.charge.org/bansikh jokes

For years now, the Sikh community has been ridiculed, insulted, poked fun at, and portrayed as naive idiots, foolish and an object of amusement, all “in good nature.”

While Sikhs are a fun loving community, we DO NOT like when “12 Baje Jokes” or “Santa Banta Jokes” are cracked at our expense. It is not about Sikhs not being able to take a joke, it’s about hurting our religious sentiments.

Bullying is not funny. Nor is making fun of any religion.

A PIL in the Supreme Court is asking for websites specialising in these jokes to be banned. This is our time to take action.

Sign my petition urging the Supreme Court to ban the websites that defame and insult the Sikh community.

The Supreme Court will hear the case soon. If thousands of us sign this petition, we can show it to Honorable Supreme Court of India that racism is not funny.
