    It always has been in Spain. I adore the people and culture, but they’ve always overreacted to Basque and now Catalan independence movements.

      Well, basque indepence movement involved several deaths, including “civilians”, non politics or police related until 2000s, and people react quite pacific always.

      Whereas catalan movement is basically pacifist with some roadblocks and protests and some riots. In front, the typical anti riot police, not fun… but kind of expected.

      Honestly, I will be not surprised if this case ends in nothing as it is not clear it can hold in court …
