On September 28th, 2012, the Swiss Parliament approved a revision of the asylum laws. They boasted this revision will "tougher" towards those who wanted to request asylum (however it is not, otherwise they wouldn't have made the revision). And so, as the Swiss people can contest pretty much any laws approved by the parliament, the Young Socialists helped by Amnesty International found the 50 000 signatures needed to call a referendum.

The press said this was yet another hardening of the asylum laws and their polls said it would, however, be approved by the Swiss with around 55% of the votes.

As I've said above, the problem is not the law but simply the person heading the immigration department.

However, I think the Swiss people wanted to send a message and, on June 9th, 2013, 78.4% of Swiss accepted the revision. Yes, nearly 80% of people tired of niggers that won't do anything but commit crimes and sell drugs.

Here are the full results: http://www.admin.ch/ch/f/pore/va/20130609/det571.html

Top 3 states that approved the revision:

Appenzell Innerrhoden, 86.78%

Jura, 66.20%
Neuchâtel, 70.12%
