As you might know the Spanish revolution has moved from the public squares to the neighborhoods and also to some specific places in certain moments. One of this places was Catalan Parliament yesterday. Lots of people supporting spanish/catalan revolution went there on Tuesday afternoon and camped outside Ciutadella Park- for those of you that don't know the Catalan Parliament is inside Ciutadella Park- because the police didn't let them in. The objective was to prevent the members of the parliament to get in so they couldn't vote on the new economic measures, which are pretty bad for everybody. The fact is that some people shook some of the members, shouted at them and other things. I don't know how many people was involved in these acts or even if these people went there only to look for trouble, still I think that the first mistake was not letting the members of the parliament in, incidentally most of them got in anyway.
Why I am saying that? Well I think that the best thing would have been just sitting outside of the parliament not saying anything, maybe setting a corridor for the politicians to pass through, but saying nothing. Not letting them work is just doing the same thing the politicians made when they didn't want people camping in Plaça Catalunya, and since democracy means also the right of doing what you want and what you believe in, not letting people do it isn't democracy. And democracy is not chasing people from their works nor humiliating them in public. Let's be smarter than the politicians for once.
I just want to state that I think that spanish revolution is a good thing, but some people are just taking it as their own and this is not a political ideology it is just a cry for a change.
