I Am Spanish

One of the unexpected consequences of the Catalonian independence referendum happening today is that many people are losing their shame to show the national flag in balconies or windows. So far, it only used to happen when the national soccer team was playing some competition.

Even on our National Day, 12th October, few people showed them, and those who did risked to be called far-right and fascist (stupid beyond words, I know).

I am not fond of public displays of political beliefs apart from discussions, but I am thinking of showing it this year.

Spain actually was in our news this morning! Kind of shocking. Are you safe?

@JustNik Totally safe. In fact, only a few incidents have happened in Barcelona, but I guess media will portrait them like 'awful police brutality'.

@Cierzo that's why I asked. LOL They like to find the worst picture possible and make it sound worse yet. Glad to know you're safe! 👍
