‘Let’s hope we don’t get to the point of re-enacting the Spanish Civil War.’

damn right we’d better hope to avoid this; the Spanish civil war was horrendous, rife with former friends killing each other with no more remorse than if they’d swatted a fly...

It wasn’t a choice. Beyond a certain point, events took on a life of their own. The left decided they were going to eliminate all obstacles to their rule. The right merely reciprocated. Spain was fortunate in having Franco to turn the tide. If it ever gets to that point, I hope we have a Franco to right the ship.
