In the New York Police Department, dress codes are easing to accommodate the religion’s requirements.

The west are our enemy
We shouldn’t expect anything from our enemies
All the fake Muslim liberals should leave Islam if they want to be accepted as westerners
I say this as Sunni Muslim
These people are our enemies since 1400 years ago

Clowns.
Dunning Kruger – your a clown in all your white hoods made out of mamas bedsheets
Dunning Kruger – the british did the same thing in india
A lack of reason, logic and critical thinking…. IS a danger to the public.
Sikhs are a peacefull Bunch,Same can’t be said about the other..Sikhs are allowed to carry kirpan(dagger) too.
Wonder How you deport legal Immigrants,
@ajay prasad very easy , we will stop giving them jobs here,# americans first
Indian Americans are among the most highly educated racial or ethnic groups in the U.S. 70% of Indian Americans aged 25 and older had college degrees , by far the highest rate among the six Asian-American groups studied and 2.5 times the rate among the overall U.S. population.That should wake you up.
Median annual household income for Indian Americans $88,000, much higher than for all Asian Americans ($66,000) and all U.S. households ($49,800)-Highly educated.
Only 9% of adult Indian Americans live in poverty, compared with 12% of Asian Americans overall and 13% of the U.S. population.
28% of Indian American worked in science and engineering fields, (69.3%) of Indian Americans 16 and older were in management, business, science and arts occupations.
More than half of Indian immigrants in the United States obtain lawful permanent residence (also known as receiving a “green card”) through the employment-based preference. Compared to the overall foreign- and native-born populations, All of this because Indians see as well various other legal immigrants who contribute see it as a privilege not a Right.

RubberGently ya ur dp
Gabriel De Luca u r hot babe
Haha so funny
0:18 “Now, there is 166…” or “Now, there is 160 Sikhs…” . Ok, now i’m very much confused!
They just shortened it its just 166
is this new religious recognition going to affect the way they Police? for example would they be biased if I’m eating steak while responding to a domestic dispute and their biased judgment will be condone because of their beliefs?
then we minus well rewrite constitution to mix religion and state.
Why would it lol?… Ignorant question. Their work ethic will be same as any good cops.
Many sikhs eat beef and bacon, wtf is you point?? haha
Weird that the uniform concepts of 200 other religions were discarded.
I am multicultural. is it OK if I wear my hijab, kilt and a Russian fur hat on top of that when I go to work?
Mark Mywords I don’t see why not.
Sure. As long as it’s a threat to the community. JUST LIKE THE VIDEO SAID.
As long as it doesn’t affect your work efficiency I don’t see why not!
You uneducated idiot….if you search how many sikh fought WW1 and WW2 from your side without helmet in battlefield…..wearing their turban proudly…
Tell me what is hard…. fighting against enemy in battlefield with turbans or protecting ppl in streets.
Didn’t really think your comment out did you? Hijab and skirt don’t go and also one is religious and the other two mentioned are cultural … perhaps you should get educated instead of getting schooled on youtube
As long as theres no clear symbols of the religion i dont see any problem with this
oh yeah ? What do you call the turban ???
Conservative Thought youre allowed to wear a cross on your neck, arent you?
Great now all we need is for them to ease dress codes for sagging etc
Yeh bik gayi gai gormint
religion at home , church ,temple … not at work
This should a good example to be conducted throughout the US.
The only reason Hinduism exists today in India is because of Brave Sikhs !!!
Sikhs started out as – “Saintly warriors”, Hence the Turban on their head signifies “Knowledge”. They are a clan of Saintly warriors that started out as a Medieval form of “Police” to prevent violence and tyranny in Medieval India. Sikhs are never involed in violence or terrorism.
No not at all, there are way more powerful community that exists before sikh become a religion, Rajput, Maratha and even sultans . So if you think because of Sikhs Hindus exits then you are wrong my dear. The 10th guru , Guru Gobind Singh Maharaj was himself a Rajput warrior who converted to sikh to set an example and uplifted the minorities and made them Brave and tough whom we today call sikh.
@Hand Of LEGION ur a fool guru gobind singh father was a sikh even his grandfather was sikh. He didnt convert to sikh he was born a sikh. He just founded the khalsa
@guru Singh only a fool thinks every other person is a fool…so yeah….you are wright.
@Hand Of LEGION your making false statements I reccomend you to do research. Before saying guru gobind singh ji was born a Sikh into a sikh family
@Hand Of LEGION you do know the story of Aurangzeb right
Good news, America is always ahead in religious freedom compared to here in europe
Haha, they didn’t even get a police car
what a fukin joke! 1 uniform for any cop. there is no need for this at all. just bullshit.
WARNING: GUYS WITH TURBAN ARE VERY DANGEROUS FOR AMERICA….. they are very very fragile and mentally disturbed ..they get very excited ….they will blow up commercial planes and kill innocent civilians…please read their history……….BEWARE OF THE TURBAN GUYS………..THEY SHOULD BE BANNED FROM US POLICE & DEFENSE FORCES…
Googlie Googlinkty they are not muslims
Googlie Googlinkty Sikhs build but their hard earned money is given to up because it has more votes
Googlie Googlinkty we grow are own food it’s not India’s food
I know that detective.
Anything goes, just don’t mention Jesus
These are good people>!!!
WRF are u kidding me?!?!
Lol ,,Whats Wrong with NYPD no more Respect We need are Old youniforms not some crazy …i know its US and its freedom but be Respect for are old cops not Happy ((((
Sikhs are good people… Just watch out for Aghori Nasal
What’s that ?
I see no reason to ban turbans and beards. What the NYPD should ban is picking fights, putting your hands where they don’t belong, and pilfering.
Love this, this is what america is all about.
Lots of whites forget that at one time we were the immigrants
jeremyviromek do you mind telling me whole story about this in brief
That means lots of whites have what’s called selective amnesia.
Can black officers wear do rugs ? It part of their culture.
mr. JH ahh, but is it part of the black officer’s religion? If so, I’d say yes. Idiot.
No, extremely unprofessional. This is a neglected rule in the NYPD. If you are unable to remain professional(act, clothes, etc) You will be put on modified assignment.
They look ridiculous
Mr. C you are ridiculous
🖕🖕🖕
TURBIN IS A SYMBOL
This is stupid
Lot of hate talk in this group… well at least it shows that some Fox News viewers are trying there best to educate themselves watching Al Jazeera…
Bravo to NYPD for opening there minds and embracing other comunities.
They are probably RSS terrorists.
That old woman stole my feather duster.
Forget the donuts champ, I would like to be having half dozen pappadums thank you dear
Your mom is a slag.
Can Rastafarian Jamaican cop have dreads now?
Ridiculous! It’s a para-military organization!
mike ran ik
And as if by magic, Mike becomes a professor of religion.
this is good for the community.
They’re Sick lol
Well the way i see is the community is more inclined to divulge information to people who are alike.
Sikhs are my brothers
Just don’t be yelling alahu akbar in my city
Finger banging Your mom true
Idiot it’s a different religion you could have known if you have ever been to school
Oh god. You are so dumb. The fact that yoj people have so little knowledge about other religions is actually pretty scary and sad at the same time
You know this might be just me but I think the whole state of United States mostly need to replace all the American police officer with the Sikh police officer
David Gardner why
We are happy to take bullets on our chest to save others! 🤗😤💪
David why why?
Do you have the flight carpet as well
I would like the Scottish to wear their man skirts
Yeah why not?
…They already do ! …every Police band in USA…Canada..Australia..NZ…etc ..plus the British Army Scots regts…all wear the Kilt.
No Police force has a Kilt for its uniform….if they did Sikhs would gladly wear it …all they want is to cover their heads with their religiously mandated uniform …the turban. Let a Sikh wear his turban and he will die for any uniform he wears on his body…such is the respect returned by them…
they are the shield against billy bob or big G
Search basics of sikhi haters

Jesus Christ! What’s next? Maybe all the Christian cops should wear a giant crucifix on top of their head, and maybe a huge Star of David head topper for the Jewish officers.
Those turbans stood in world wars. Stood for defending innocents since 17th century
