Do they even have guns?
They’ll probably repel the government with sheer virtue and manliness.
Right, civil war canceled.

Apparantly it needs to be pointed out: Restrictive gun laws don't prevent civil war.

In related news, civil wars and crime are usually not legal acts. Yet somehow both criminals and rebels tend to use guns... :think:

Catalan separatists win election in rebuke to Spain and EU

BARCELONA (Reuters) – Catalonia’s separatists look set to regain power in the wealthy Spanish region after local elections on Thursday, deepening the nation’s political crisis in a sharp rebuke to Prime Minister Mariano Rajoy and European Union leaders who backed him.
With nearly all votes counted, separatist parties won a slim majority in Catalan parliament, a result that promises to prolong political tensions which have damaged Spain’s economy and prompted a business exodus from the region.
