Not my source. I provided no source except personal experience.From your source:Those were mere examples, dispute them with sourced material.You claim to live there, rest assured that does not make you an expert by any means. Are you an attorney admitted to practice, a legislator, an educator in the areas of law or government where you claim to live? If not, what expertise do you bring to the discussion that actually qualifies you to hold your self out as the expert you claim to be.How would you know? Have you lived in Europe? I have. I lived there recently for 4 years, and I spend at least 2 months every year there. There is no more worry about Sharia Law being instituted in Europe than it being instituted in the US. It's made up hysteria, nothing more.
As far as hatred of non-Muslims, all countries, historically and in the present, have problems and conflicts due to immigration: it has happened in the US since the inception of the country, and it has happened all over the world since the emergence of mankind.
All of you blather on and on about London and Europe as if you actually have a clue what it is like there, and you don't.
None of this stuff is new or anything to get hysterical about. Anyone with common sense and a vision that takes into account the human condition as well as history would understand that.
For example, "A German court has ruled that Islamists who patrolled a city's streets as "Sharia police" did not break the law and will not be prosecuted.
Nine were arrested in September 2014 after patrolling streets in Wuppertal, western Germany. They wore bright orange jackets with the words "Sharia police". They told passers-by not to frequent discos, casinos or bars."

Perhaps you would like to be accosted while going about your daily activities, I would not.
Another example, "Serving officers in terrorist hotspots including London and Birmingham said that forces are becoming increasingly nervy over the rising threat of Islamic State (ISIS) inspired attacks, with some telling staff not to wear their uniforms in their OWN patrol cars.
the police have to ask local Muslim leaders for PERMISSION before sending patrols into their communities."
‘Trump is right!’ Police say parts of Britain ARE no-go areas due to ISIS radicalisation
This is another instance of an ever growing problem.
Rather than call people names and try to beat them down with your poor choice of destructive and demeaning words perhaps you can actually discuss this issue.
This is pretty thin stuff Alex and nowhere near the reality of life in the UK.
What you have is some obscure story from Germany and an unsourced story in Britains most virulent anti immigrant newspaper.
The number of made up stories around Muslims is threatening to break the internet and is a deliberate attempt by Nazis to demonise them. They did the same thing to the Jews 70 years ago.
He is disputing it with first hand experience and observation. You live in a different culture and country, thousands of miles away, and you get all your information from the media, much of which you do not know the value or validity. Get a grip.
"The Salafists, who are all aged between 24 and 35, first made headlines in September 2014 after they patrolled the streets of Wuppertal, in Germany's western industrial Ruhr region, in an attempt to enforce a strict interpretation of Islam.
Wearing orange vests, emblazoned with the words "Shariah police," the defendants allegedly demanded people at nightclubs stop drinking alcohol and listening to music.
The bearded fundamentalists were also observed calling for an end to gambling as they carried notices, in English, declaring a "Sharia Controlled Zone."
NRW popular state for Salafists
At the time of the reports, German Chancellor Angela Merkel commented that no one had the right to do the police's work for them.
Wuppertal Police Chief Birgitta Rademacher said: "Intimidation or provocation won't be tolerated," adding that only police appointed and employed by the state had the legitimate right to act as police in Germany."
Thanks you have buttressed my argument.
