In this latest case, two Muslim girls were denied citizenship because they refused to swim in a pool with boys present.
In April, members of an immigrant family in the Basel area were denied citizenship because they wore sweatpants around town and did not greet passersby -- a sure sign that they were not sufficiently assimilated, the naturalization board claimed.
Another recent case sparked widespread outrage in Switzerland when two Muslim brothers refused to shake hands with their female teacher, also citing religious restrictions. Shaking hands with a teacher is a common practice in Swiss schools.
This is not the first time Switzerland's Muslim community has stirred controversy over swimming lessons. In 2012, a family was fined $1,500 for forbidding their daughters to participate in swimming classes.
The matter eventually ended up in the Supreme Court, which ruled that no dispensations from swimming lessons should be made on religious grounds.
k... keep me posted.

Two things troubles me about this.
1. Why would you want to teach muslims how to swim? Water parks at summer is the #1 method to get rid of sub humans.
2. Why does mountains jews have swimming lessons at school? swimming is easy just use your fucking brain you move your limbs. fuck.

We have an extreme huge amount of lakes proportional to other countries. All fresh waters.
>>79816945
You guys don't even have swimming lessons? We used to go to the pool with the entire class and get swimming and diving lessons
>>79816945
It's because we don't have zionism lessons which gives us plenty of much time to learn some other things.
>>79817068
Yeah the school will send the classes to the pool on occasions but not for 'swimming classes'.
>>79817075
>zionism lessons
You mean history? You don't study history in school? Well, seeing how you curve dodged WWII you probably don't really have to.

Wat. Does that mean that poles and russians are automatically denied citizenship in Switzerland?
>>79816369
Good lad.
>>79817491
Not automatically because people have to vote to give citizenship.

We have awesome lakes and rivers to swim in, for example in Geneva we have many spots to swim in the lake or in the river Rhone. In Basel you can swim in the Rhine, and in Bern the Aare river, Zurich has its own lake, so does Lucerne, Neuchatel, Lugano, Locarno, etc.
The water is usually colder than at some beaches, but it's crystal clear and a beautiful colour, and you can even drink it without getting sick in most areas (though it's obviously not advised).

To this day, suggesting to the Germans they add "J" to Jewish passports was one of our brightest ideas. Shame our Jews couldn't keep all the monies other Jews left behind.
