Summary:
Rachel, a 24-year old shop employee in Valais (Switzerland) was transferred to the Lausanne (Sw.) hospital with heavy facial trauma: upper maxillary shattered, broken nose and sinuses, broken eye sockets. Rachel was going back home around 2:30 AM in the center of the town, accompanied by a neighbor. She was attacked by two young men and a girl who beat them up ferociously. The neighbor was also seriously injured and suffered facial wounds and a lost eardrum.
This attack seems to be the continuation of a growing hostility, or even hatred, between Valais residents and some members of the Albanian community. Rachel's mother, who is a teacher and describes herself as completely exempt from xenophobia, says that she lives in constant fear.
The attacks started after a young Albanian, who was invited at the birthday party of a Valais teen girl, got involved in a fight. Since then, Valais residents have been mugged, beaten up and harassed.
End summary.
Albanians are mostly white-skinned. They cannot easily be told from Europeans, especially in the South. So racism is not a factor here. The only isolation factor among Albanian youth is self-inflicted: Islam.
Once again, this shows that the Religion of Peace is by itself a factor of alienation and strife in even the most peaceful community.
The Religion of Pieces reats its ugly head in Switzerland, with predictable results.

RE: Albanian diaspora
Albania's problems aren't just the ROP. They were one of the last closed Communist hold outs. They thus, unsurprisingly, had a Ponzi scheme social security plan which actually reached its logical conclusion. The whole country was bankrupt except for a few successful crooks. So naturally they blamed everybody except themselves for their problems. They'd been whining 'victims' for awhile before Clinton came to their aid.
Actually about 25-30% of Albanians are Christian
They'd better look out. Swiss men and women do military service, are taught how to use rifles, and can keep their government issue rifle at home if they wish. They don't take kindly to foreigners messing up their country.
Valis is in the French part of Switzerland. The Swiss French see the military game as a big joke.
I thought the Swiss were required by law to have guns!
Comforting to know that there are others that "get it". Good post.

I know where Valais is, and the French Swiss I know have their military IDs and show them proudly. They may think the "military game as a big joke.", but it's a game they're willing to play.
I have worked with a lot of Swiss French. They all considered the Swiss military to be a joke.
