One-Man “Religious Police” Force Spooks Minneapolis
Powerline ^ | April 13, 2017 | John Hinderaker

[snip] A man trying to impose what he calls “the civil part of the sharia law” in the Cedar-Riverside neighborhood of Minneapolis has sparked anger among local residents and Muslim leaders.

Abdullah Rashid, 22, a Georgia native who moved to Cedar-Riverside last year, has been making the rounds in the Somali-dominated neighborhood, telling people not to drink, use drugs or interact with the opposite sex. If he sees Muslim women he believes are dressed inappropriately, he approaches them and suggests they should wear a jilbab, a long, flowing garment. And he says he’s recruiting others to join the effort.

Local Muslim “leaders” are trying to get the Minneapolis police to crack down on Mr. Rashid.

He’s not in Congress so he’s not in violation of the Constitution. He is a jerk though, and it could easily construe harassment and even stalking. But it is NOT a violation of the Constitution.

I assumed they meant the country, Georgia, until I saw him. What a weirdo. Those women are going to beat him up.

Man he’s going to get the sh** beat out of him so bad. A white guy telling Somalis what to do.

That's why I have to consider he might be trolling. It's 2017. Trolling has been elevated to a sport that even our President participates in. Everyone is trying to take it to the next level.

They haven’t populated enough yet to make this work. Wait a few more years.

He’s threatening women. Shoot him before he acts out on his hate and intolerance.

I guess he’s not exactly like your typical Jehovah’s Witness call.

Seems as if he’s playing the role of overseer, more than anything else.

Well, until he assaults someone (which includes threatening them), this is covered under freedom of speech. Once he tries to lay violent hands on someone, though, it is time to end him.

Yeah. I don't see from the article that he's committed a crime.

These Islamic Muslims should be told to perform the Apache wind dance, several times a day. It cleanses the soul. Ridicule them when they do not, be persistent.

Tell your familiar muslim that Allah demands all devout muslims do the wind dance.

He’s a wannabee. No true accomplishments in his past, none in his future.
