I might not like people blasting rap music in traffic, but I'm not going to try and ban black people from driving cars because of it.

Jesus christ...


We already have laws about excessive noise, and a fat lot of good they do.

BUT,noise is only one aspect,I'm far more concerned about property values. (OK ,the value of MY property)

I have no doubt there are lot of Swiss bigots who relished the chance to stick it to the Muslims. However,I see the issue as a civil and social one,not one of religious freedom. I guess we may need to agree to differ.
