  1. There were no major riots in Vitoria yesterday, the Ertzaintzas only stopped people from getting to the building. Anyways I wouldn't like to be in front of the beltzas when they want to charge against anyone as they don't see who they hit.

  2. Pri, thanks for clarifying that, you know how the media blow things out of proportion.

    I would really appreciate it if you help with your comments to put things into context, this thing about posting the pictures and the captions as they are is something new I'm trying.
