More than 100 people were injured in Spain as riot police clashed with protesters on Friday, as authorities cleared away a makeshift camp set up as part of a Spain-wide demonstration against the country's economic problems. The trouble started when police tried to clear the protesters from a main square in Barcelona. Many of the protesters, who are angry about high unemployment, anti-austerity measures and politicians' handling of the economy, refused to move. Video from a local broadcaster showed officers beating the demonstrators and dragging them on the ground.

  • @Chicolinx a lo mejor eres tu, ese amigo del que hablas,,, o kizas es tu padre.

  • Yo tenía un amigo con mucha rabia contenida, Sus sueños se habían frustrado, abandonó pronto los estudios y no tenía trabajo, se volvió violento. Siempre quería tener razón y cuando no la tenía su defensa era la fuerza, por eso se quedaba sin amigos. Su frustración también la pagaba con la novia, se desahogaba pegándola. Empezó a tener problemas con la justicia y le daba miedo ir a la cárcel. Lo último que supe de él es que se hizo policía nacional. Es verídico. Ahora se descarga legalmente.
