Residents of the German city of Wuppertal have expressed concern after a group of young radical Islamists started taking to the streets late at night, trying to deter revellers from drinking and gambling.
The self-styled "Sharia Police" have been patrolling an area around the city's main train station, declaring the popular nightlife area to be a "Sharia Controlled Zone". Deutshe Welle reports that witnesses have seen them handing out leaflets urging people not to drink alcohol, attend concerts, gamble, watch pornography or visit prostitutes.
The men are believed to be from the Salafi sect of Islam, which is closely related to the puritanical Wahhabi belief practised in Saudi Arabia. They walk around dressed in orange high-visibility vests with the words "Sharia Police" written on the back in English.
The city's real police said they stopped 11 men aged between 19 and 33 on Wednesday night, and may bring charges of illegal assembly against them. However, after numerous residents complained to them, they have now also set up a hotline allowing people to report their concerns about the group.
Local police chief Birgitta Rademacher said that provocation and intimidation "won't be tolerated", adding that only officers appointed by the state had the right to act as police in Germany.
The city's mayor, Peter Jung, supported the police's stance: "These people's intention is to provoke and intimidate and force their ideology [upon others]," he said.
"This is an open and tolerant city, which is proud of the fact that people of different religions and convictions live together in peace."
The group had originally posted a video to Youtube, proudly boasting of their activities.

Because they have everyone afraid to confront them. The left has made sure that anyone brave enough to do something about Muslim thugs will be punished.

What a target rich photo.
“This is an open and tolerant city, which is proud of the fact that people of different religions and convictions live together in peace.”
Nice political theory if it didn’t involve Muslims.
Germany tolerated the brown shirts in the 1920’s and early 30’s and once they won an election, it was over.
We’ll see in the end how they handle the orange vests.
My thinking too.
“This is an open and tolerant city, which is proud of the fact that people of different religions and convictions live together in peace.”
And that is why you will fail. “A liberal is a man too broad-minded to take his own side in a quarrel.” Robert Frost

The best way to not tolerate it is to shoot the perps, then ship the carcasses to the nearest hog farm for use as feed.
Dead men walking.We need to thank them for the vests,makes it so easy to target them.
No Drinking!
No Gambling!
Is it still okay to rape 9 year old girls?
Honestly, it’d be an improvement in many of our cities. Watch a couple of episodes of Drugs, Inc.
Nothing to see here ... just move along ... these aren’t the dangerous religious fanatics you’re looking for.
Hey, Christian homeschoolers - over there!
I can’t wait.
“....live together in peace.”
.
And that’s why they need a Sharia Polizei?
Hitler admired Islam. Considering he didn’t drink or smoke and was a vegetarian, he probably would have supported the Sharia Police.
This is Germany. Why didn’t the vests say —
Scharia-Polizei
Um, not for much longer, Herr Burgomeister Jung. Not for much longer...
