A Sikh man says he was attacked and told to “go back to [his] country” in an incident police are now investigating as a hate crime.
Surjit Malhi, 50, told Sacramento’s CBS13 that he was beaten by two men who also allegedly spray-painted his truck with hate symbols, while he was out posting campaign signs for Rep. Jeff Denham (R-Calif.)
Malhi told CBS that the men threw sand in his eyes and brutally beat him in the head, shoulders and neck, while shouting: “Go back to your country!”
====================================================
Sikh's wear turbins as a sign of their religious observance. It doesn't take much to set off a couple of red-necked yahoos when they see someone who even just looks Middle Aastern.
