I'm not terribly knowledgeable about Spain's "democratic legal framework" so maybe you can instead point me to what laws he's breaking? Is it possible as well

I'm not terribly knowledgeable about Spain's "democratic legal framework" so maybe you can instead point me to what laws he's breaking?
Is it possible as well that you have a different understanding of that "legal framework" than the prosecution/government/courts of Spain has? Since again, he doesn't seem to be wanted nor arrested for anything.
Wasn't the Catalan politicians also jailed for "misuse of public funds" rather than "inciting against territorial integrity" just because opinions about independence is not illegal in Spain? Or maybe I have that wrong. In that case, it seems Jordi in this case cannot be held responsible for that since he doesn't manage any public funds.
- ricardobayes 5y agoI'm not either, that's why I asked. Maybe we can find out together?
- capableweb 5y agoOh. Seems a bit extreme for you to claim "According to Spanish law [...] what he is doing, is illegal" then, don't you think? If everything points towards him not breaking the law, shouldn't we by default assume that he in fact didn't break any law? Unless you have something pointing towards that he did break the law after-all.
- ricardobayes 5y agoI can't reply to the branch comment so I do here: I have edited my parent comment to reflect the fact it's an opinion and might not be true. Thanks for bringing some insight to this. I must also add I'm a bit disappointed that people are flagging comments they don't agree with. I thought users here value freedom of speech highly. My comments broke no terms I know of. Perhaps a bit passionate, if anything.
