That is true, the Alemans immigrated from Southern Scandinavia, so are not "native" to Switzerland at all (in a historic sense). But moving away from this as an argument, even a playful one in this serious debate (it is as weak as yours): I always wonder when people who have successfully emigrated to a far-away foreign country talk about immigration as if those people were invaders, while in the next breath complaining about Thai visa difficulties, wholly without seeing the irony. Are they too self-consumed, too blind, or just hypocrites, or worse? I have been to places (in Africa as it were) where I was obviously not welcome, and it sharpened my sense on how that must feel when you are in a minority -- in my case of me alone -- and the shoe is on the other foot. Also, I have a daughter with my Thai wife, and we currently live in Germany. I am hyper-aware that my daughter could easily be this kind of "unwelcome" foreigner if such politics would gain the upper hand, and maybe her own children and even grandchildren (as she carries the obvious skin, hair and eye phenotypes to make her stand out as different). So, for somebody who made Thailand his home for a time, or has a Thai partner, such tinking is hypocrisy of the highest kind; if somebody has gone as far as having half-Thai children, this would unmask him as evil in the true sense.
