One young Sikh boy called Harsukh Singh, in Georgia City, was hooted by his group of school children, and called "terrorist". The video of the abuse is now viral on the Internet, according to ibnlive.

Posted on Inquisitr, the Sikh boy, with glasses, is shown in a school bus, and is surrounded by students. Harsukh Singh is a student at the Chattahoochee Elementary School in Duluth, Georgia.

His first whisper to the camera is, that "The kids are being racist to me."

Behind him, a small girl is sitting, shouts "terrorist! terrorist!" and points her finger at the boy, who remains calm and even shouts "who cares", as the children rain abuses at him.

Inquisitr reported that the video was uploaded by a user named 'Nagra Nagra'. So far, it got 130,000 views, with the description: "Kids being racist to me and calling me an Afghan terrorist. Please don't act like this towards people like me. If you don't know, I'm not Muslim, I'm Sikh."

One online user called the video "disgusting", as the young Sikh boy was "being bullied with racist chants on a school bus. "The Sikh bravely states that he doesn't care what they think of him."

The video has been put up on the Internet a few weeks after a Hindu temple in Seattle was vandalized. A red, spray-painted Nazi swastika is seen on the temple and cultural centre in Washington state in February.

The Council on American-Islamic Relations, FBI hate crimes statistics, display anti-Muslim hate crimes being more than five times than before the 9/11 attacks.

In 2014, Joseph Caleca, a Long Island man, hit 29-year-old Sikh man Sandeep Singh with his pick-up truck, calling him 'Osama'. and repeated that he should "go back to your country."

A grand jury charged him with "attempted murder as a hate crime, assault, criminal possession of a weapon and leaving the scene without reporting", according to tvnz.com.
