[QUOTE="_CY_, post: 2908210, member: 7629"] [SIZE=6][B]Sikh man who found bombing suspect: 'I did what every American would have done'[/B][/SIZE] September 20, 2016 [IMG]https://www.okshooters.com/data/MetaMirrorCache/i2.cdn.turner.com_cnnnext_dam_assets_160920100953_harinder_bai0a92ae04499cf8fc69af75fdc789cf13.jpg[/IMG] What Harinder Bains [I]did [/I]isn't unusual: He saw something suspicious and called police. But who Harinder Bains [I]is[/I] makes this story special. Bains is the bar owner who led police to Ahmad Rahami, the suspect in the New York and New Jersey blasts. While officials haven't pinned an exact motive to the Afghanistan-born Rahami's act, a handwritten note is said to have contained ramblings, including references to previous terrorists, such as the Boston Marathon bombers. That's what makes Bains actions remarkable. Bains is a Sikh American. And every time an attack has been carried out by an Islamic extremist, Sikhs -- mistaken for Muslims because of their turbans and beards -- have borne the backlash. And 15 years after 9/11, Sikhs don't feel any safer. The hate spewed toward them, as immigrants, [URL='http://www.cnn.com/2016/09/15/us/sikh-hate-crime-victims/']has only spiked because of the xenophobic tenor in some quarters[/URL] these days. Which brings us to Bains - a Sikh man, an immigrant -- who had a hand in stopping a suspect -- another immigrant -- from getting away with a crime.
