Reply to comment by Phantastic_Elastic in FBI working with Norwich police to investigate targeted hate messages toward Sikh community by BeerJunky

It says in the article the Sikh community believes the billboard was rented by Hindu Indians. The conflict among Muslim, Hindu and Sikh Indians is not on a lot of Americans' radar.

Hindu parties in India have been oppressing Sikhs and Muslims for a while. Majority of Muslims got out with their own land of Pakistan. But the ones that remain along with the Sikhs are going through it. The Sikhs and Mulsims there have no problem with each other or against Hindus (apart from maybe some local shuffles here and there) during the separation in 1947, along with Pakistan, the Sikhs were supposed to have their own land as well but that land was one of the most fertile and water rich lands in the region so India lied and tricked the Sikhs at the time out of it with fake promises. Hence why there's a fight for their own land still today. Its not any new separatists or radical movement. Just what they deserved. So instead India broke the land apart into pieces making other states and funding Hindu communities so weaken the Sikh claim to the lands. This oppression has also spilled its way into countries like America but not every gov official buys their bs

They've committed mass murders, allow forced conversion, pushed drugs into the hands of young kids. They allow this to happen openly in Sikh populated Punjab, but have strict laws and restrictions in other parts. All what is considered systematic genocide. Still happening today. There are multiple organizations here in US that actively push the idea that Sikhs are just Hindus, They've hijacked our holidays, our history in the World History books. It's wild stuff
