I don't think this is going to be forgotten in a very long time.

If the Spanish authorities are so sure it's all illegal and the result will hold no water why don't they just ignore it. Is there really any need to beat people up for voting?
They can't ignore it though as the President promised that if the vote was for independence he would would declare it 48 hrs after the result.

Igni is correct, the Spanish Government have handled it very badly.This heavy handedness may be the straw that breaks the camel's back and leads to a unilateral declaration of independence anyway.

I can see more trouble and unrest ahead.
