Els bombers amb nosaltres / Firefighters for democracy

Cap a la tarda del referèndum d'autodeterminació del 1 d'octubre de 2017, els bombers varen passar donant suport als concentrats en defensa del col·legi electoral de C.C. Sant Oleguer!

 

============================================

 

The firefighters showing their compromise with the people and with democracy, during the harsh attack by the spanish police all arround Catalonia on October 1st, 2017. They even painted "Democracy" in their trucks!

 

This is the polling station at St. Oleguer Communiy Center, in Sabadell, during the self-determination referendum held that day.

 

Just as we started all came to a sudden stop, as the web connexion, vital to the voting system, was blocked and the vote didn't began till 10:30am at least. The crowd was huge and even started to rain.

 

Much more dramatic were the news that polling stations all arround Catalonia were being savagely attacked by the spanish police, people beaten and the boxes stolen. But our luck stood with us and we had no attack, closing at 8PM.
