_The couple said they had not made a complaint to the authorities.

"We didn't want to get involved in things that are complicated, because we are afraid the problem will become more complex," said Dimas._

if they did they might make things a little bit better for people coming after them. I hope they change their minds.

They are the New Zealand of Spain.

Well, and that being said, my very personal perception is that the will to leave is more significant (without going into whether it's majority or not) in Catalonia, Galicia and the Basque Country. The other highlighted in my opinion would be happy with greater recognition of their peculiarities (namely language) and less dependence of a central government.

I'm sacrificing a lot of accuracy and nuance in order to keep my comment short.

It's a complex issue. It would be more accurate if it showed the share of people in each region that feel one way or another.

But to be able to do that, we should count them.

And Spain made very clear in October 2017 that such a count (ie. a referendum) is illegal.

So right now whoever says "the majority of X wants to secede/stay" right now, independently of being right or wrong, is doing so without data to ground that claim.

Howard Mitla is having a panic attack.

Oh, I was all confused interpreting chasers as gay guys into stocky hairy guys.

Clearly he wasn't afraid of the dog.

That isn't the problem about the dog being off leash, the problem is it being able to go after the wildlife.

Maybe he should have been colder headed maybe not, we could critisize his being in the right but being an asshole about it, but we cannot equate that to her being in the wrong and doubling down by consciously making use of her white privilege to make a false accusation that could have ended very badly for him. This is not a both sides situation.

Figure 12 of the source is depressing :(

What so many people probably want is homeless having somewhere safe to go and resources to go out of homelessness. They get hostile architechture instead.

Isn't the IQ adjusted to always have an average of 100?

You have (normally) 4 fingers with 3 phalanxes each, plus a fifth one (the thumb) to point at each one of those phalanxes.

I just learned that the British colony of Queensland, Australia, adopted the Maltese cross as the state badge and on the flag in 1876 for reasons unknown
