Monkeys Fist 42443 Posted November 12, 2008 Share Posted November 12, 2008 Aye, it's sikh headgear. they can carry a ceremonial knife too, them being warrior caste and all that. Not sure if the knife is still allowed in UK Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brock Manson 0 Posted November 13, 2008 Share Posted November 13, 2008 Aye, it's sikh headgear. they can carry a ceremonial knife too, them being warrior caste and all that.Not sure if the knife is still allowed in UK It's more symbolic than anything nowadays. You'd be hard pressed to actually seriously injure someone with it. Kirpin I think it's called, but I could be very wrong. And it's not so much the turban rather the uncut hair which is a factor of the religion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
manc-mag 1 Posted November 13, 2008 Share Posted November 13, 2008 Got a couple of Sikh mates and neither of them wear turbans. Many of the blokes don't these days. Some of the ones that do look hilarious, mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

luckyluke 2 Posted November 13, 2008 Share Posted November 13, 2008 I'd hate to sit behind one in a cinema. Didn't we have a big debate a few years back about whether saying Sikhs were hard as nails was racist or not? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was so incensed by the racist implication of the stereotype I filled-in a lad wearing a turban in town the following weekend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happy Face 29 Posted November 14, 2008 Share Posted November 14, 2008 Is that racist? Oh, aye. You’re all right with that, like, because it’s a race of people, and it’s a food. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
