BARCELONA, Spain (AP) — Three people were arrested late on Monday in a protest against negotiations between Spain’s acting government and Catalan separatist parties over a possible amnesty for thousands involved in Catalonia’s independence movement.

Government authorities said that the arrests took place during a gathering by over 3,000 people in front of the national headquarters of Spain’s Socialist Party in Madrid. Two men were arrested for violent behavior against police, and one woman for disobedience, the representative of Spain’s national government in the Madrid region said.

    Nah fuck that. Give them the full force of the law. That Catalan shit was being driven by Russian pysops the same way Brexit was the same way Trump 16 was. It was all happening at the same time and Russian intelligence was frankly, crushing it. The sad state of the world we’re in now is a direct result of Russian foreign policy.
