Yeah this was a big complaint about tourists (especially from certain countries) in Barcelona: they viewed the city as a playground and somewhere to let off steam, and they acted in inconsiderate and disrespectful ways in which they would never act back home. It's like to them Mediterranean culture seemed permissive and relaxed compared to what they were used to, so they made the false assumption that "anything goes" rather than putting in the effort to actually learn and respect the norms of the culture they were guests of.
