We could set up a poll in HN and call it a referendum, it would still be bullshit. The way the spanish govt acts is indeed wrong and stupid , but this is not democratic process. They could let the vote go through; its illegal anyway and its

That's an observation (which is false thus stated ; america produces science but people are not as scientifically literate as western europe. And still, loud religious zealots pose no threat politically like they do in Turkey). his ar
