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

One thing to note about Norwich is that the Sikh community is fairly visible there. They'll buy ads at the bus stops for holidays and to thank or recognize people/politicians who have supported the community. There's no evangelizing on the ads either, not even a mention of temple locations or services.

Without fail, those ads get defaced. It's sad to see something that harmless get targeted at every opportunity.

I’ve thought about converting to Sikhism and didn’t know there was a community this close to me. Really sad that this is the treatment they get.

That’s why I asked. A lot of CT liberals are moving to Florida & Georgia.

We moved to NY state. My wife got a new job and I go where she goes. We're enjoying it so far, but the snows haven't started here yet.
