Lammy says on #TrevorPhillips that Sikhs being allowed to carry their kirpan "is a privilege"
It isn't. It is a mandatory article of faith. Its ceremonial purpose is to symbolise the defending of justice
It is equivalent to the divinity and Incarnation of Jesus and the belief that Jesus is fully God and fully man, born of a virgin or that the Torah is immutable and can never be altered.
Laws about dangerous weapons are not even on this scale of universal importance
