Organized criminal activity in any country is a function of migration patterns and poor economic opportunity/integration. Inevitably this always happens and it doesn't matter what ethnic/religious group or what country they move to. I am not making anti-immigrant claims, just stating the current state of affairs that are a result of 20 years of immigration patterns in Denmark.
Crime in general is a function of socioeconomic status, where migration patterns usually involves a flow of people where those who migrate has relative low socioeconomic status.
There are exception to this when people of high income, wealth, and education moves to an area where the relative socioeconomic status is lower. A typical example is popular (often warmer) tourist locations, and in those cases we don't usually see anti-immigrant views gaining popularity. Following this we could draw the conclusion that anti-immigrantion politics is simply a proxy for politics in regard to an a influx of low socioeconomic people regardless of ethnic or religious backgrounds.
Sorry I meant to say that the Christiania hash trade is controlled by Hells Angels. I don't think Hells Angels are particularly Christian despite the biblical name! It is just to point out that the guy saying the trade is "exclusively muslim" is talking bullshit.

Citizens of Marseille might disagree. https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/europe/marseille-eu...
Front National is very popular there.
You won't see a lot of rich immigrants moving to the north part of Marseille and become active in a drug war between rival gangs.
The Christianity drug trade is to a large extent controlled by the Hells Angels biker gang.
There is/was a substantial Jewish drug trade in Melbourne. Unsurprisingly, organised crime isn't restricted to any particular religion or ethnicity.

OK, factoid time. The Hells Angels started out as a social group for retired WWII pilots who liked motorcycles.
