Didnt Spain shut this down? Now they are doing it again I guess. Any Europeans understand what the hell is going on that continent?

In a thought experiment, if Spain's courts rule against it and declare it illegal, and the Catalans ignore the ruling, what then? Spanish tanks in the streets? This is all Catalan political posturing right?

It's a contest of ballz - whether Spain has the ballz to send in tanks, and whether the rebels have the ballz to fight back.

Just like 99% of past "revolutions."


Little concerned though - was this one driven by uber leftists?

Completely unconstitutional. It would be just like if some ding bats ran California and declared independence without any vote. Probably happen next year.

No idea what's going to happen. And really not much understanding of what is happening. The only impression I'm getting that it's peaceful...so far.

Separatists in the USA should take note.
That’s what Trump thinks of your vote for independence.

I would much rather have seen the US just say. That is a Spanish and EU matter.

That right there guarantees you're going to see SJW and Hollywood start using #FreeCatalonia and #IStandWithCatalonia everywhere.
