Riots in Switzerland....

So it is not as it appears: even in Switzerland there are riots. In the latest days it is eas to read about it in Basel, Chur, Zurich. But I didn't notice anything strange close to me. Maybe because I don't get all the discussions, even if I 'm often on the train or the bus.
It looks also that Switzerland is not new to the riots, as it has happened in the past. I found this reportage really interesting, but I don't have time to look more depply to understand the reason of those riots.
It seems that a famous school (ETH) was moved from a place close to the Hauptbahnhof of Zurich to another place as a consequence of some riots happened sometime in the past.
For me it is strange to here about it, as I always think of Switzerland as a peaceful land, so I can say that Swiss people have a character as well as the rest of the world.
