Muhammad also trained muscle. Each congregation has its "Fruit of Islam" force of young men, who take judo training in their temples, are commanded by Muhammad's son-in-law, burly "Supreme Captain" Raymond Sharrieff. The F.O.I. protects its racist chief as if he were in constant danger of assassination. At each mass meeting, the F.O.I, frisks every male who attends, while "Sisters" in flowing white robes and headpieces stand inside a separate entrance (segregation by sexes also) to frisk each woman, put all potential weapons such as nail files in checking bags...
Thus far the Moslems have been strictly law-abiding-a fact that worries some cops more than minor outbreaks of violence.

...desperate note to "Mr. Judge" was scrawled by Untamed, who knew no other word for the law. Last week, riding in a police car, the children clutched one another in terror-though Conqueror soon asked the cop for a turn at the wheel. At a movie, Free could not believe his eyes; Untamed burst into tears when she saw children at play in a park.
