There's a Sikah who works at a local convenience store (I know, stereotype, but true) who of course wears a turban, with the ceremonial dagger wrapped inside. Nice guy. I have a lot of respect for Sikhism, as they're historically very respectful of women, and seem to generally have an easygoing, pleasant outlook.
Anyway, sometime after 9-11, some idiot walked in one night and started telling him to "Go back to Afghanistan," and a bunch of other garbage that need not be repeated here. Before long, I turned around and said "He's INDIAN, you inbred redneck. Turn off Fox News and open a book once in a while."
That said, any time I see a woman wearing a partial Burka, or the headdress, it makes me cringe.
