my guess is that you will fail to be surprised as i wasn't. after all why would you expect good behavior after banning those who weren't being so. the question becomes how fast you remove the 'problems' before those in charge are removed;
After all foreigners were banned from a Swiss swimming pool in Porrentruy over violence, sexual harassment and constant disturbances, Swiss visitors to the pool and employees are generally expressing happiness with the move.
The ban, which came about after “French youths with a migration background” continuously caused problems at the pool and in pool bathrooms, including sexual harassment of young girls. The situation even sparked international headlines.
However, the Swiss paper 20 Minuten reported a surge in season ticket sales after the ban was put in place.
“It went very well. Citizens have rediscovered the bathing establishment with the peace and quiet that comes with it,“ said Lionel Maître, the municipal councilor for tourism and leisure in Porrentruy. “We have seen an increase in season ticket sales as citizens have finally regained the long-awaited sense of security. There have been no problems and no new bathing bans since then.”
Maître said that it had become increasingly noticeable that the perpetrators had Arabic names.
Apollo News also reported that the need for security has suddenly disappeared since the ban on foreigners.
“People were climbing over the fence. They didn’t respect us – not even the security guards,” said Luna Lando, a lifeguard at the Porrentruy outdoor pool. She said her daily routine is now transformed.
“It’s much quieter now,” said Luna in an interview. “There’s no need for security anymore.”............more..........
