In 2016 the tsa had banned kirpans to be worn on airplanes. This would affect the Sikh community a lot. For those who don't know a kirpan is a Sikh symbol and is one of the five main symbol a sikh has to have on him at all times. There are 500,000 sikhs living in america. A lot of countries that have less than 500,000 sikhs still allow kirpans on airplane so USA should allow kirpans as well.
