These images will haunt Spain for a long time. Riot police shooting rubber bullets and beating peaceful protesters, some of them with their arms held over their heads.
More than the referendum itself, it is this type of reckless repression that can break up Spain for good.
I wasn't in favour of the independence or the referendum before seeing this, but today anyone who is in their right democratic mind is "for Catalonia".
