German tourists can get a map of Palermo, Sicily that marks shops that refuse to pay extortion money to the mafia. Germans make up the largest numbers of tourists to Sicily. I\’m not sure if that\’s a good idea for the stores, but apparently there\’s also an organization called Addiopizzo (Goodbye Extortion) which is made up of shopkeepers that are publicly against racketeering, so I guess they\’re not afraid.
