My friends are being harassed by fundamentalists...?

Question

My friends are constantly being harrassed and threatened by orthodox fundamentalists, recently, since the world witnessed the Zeus ritual in Athens, some of my friends have been very very upset by abuse launched at them, so much that they have asked me to help. No EU laws, pamphlets or high sounding adjudications seem to work, as the assailant groups, which are not officially organised have unspoken church and government moral support in their actions. What can I do to help them?

They are threatened with physical violence and also have their property smashed up

Answer 1

WOW kick em in the bollux.

Answer 2

Your friend may have a tort action for the Intentional Infliction of Emotional Distress, and also may have an action for Trespass to Property. Your friend should consult a lawyer to further analyze his problem and suggest legal remedies.

Answer 3

I don't know what country you are in but I would imagine that there are laws against threats and violence where you could seek police protection of some kind.

In the US I would get a restraining order and file both criminal and civil actions against them. Your friends should get a lawyer.

Answer 4

Same the world over as Politicians allow extremists to get away with literally murder. I assume your friends could be in any one of about 10 European countries as you mention the EU.

That is why we have so much civil unrest and civil war. Either fight or get out. It is called ethnic cleansing and only outright political and judicial opposition backed by the majority population will stop it.

Answer 5

If they are threatening physical abuse and/or property damage, maybe you can get a restraining order?

Answer 6

But you are okay? Leave it there then.
