The (Gag Law) has been approved in Spain. With this law, the production and distribution of images of the police in action, can get you a 30.000 Eur fine.

1. Photographing or recording police - 600 to 30.000 Euro fine.
2. Peaceful disobedience to authority - 600 to 30.000 Euro fine.
3. Occupying banks as means of protest - 600 to 30.000 Euro fine.
4. Not formalizing a protest - 600 to 30.000 Euro fine.
5. For carrying out assemblies or meetings in public spaces - 100 to 600 Euro fine.
6. For impeding or stopping an eviction - 600 to 30.000 Euro fine.
7. For presence at an occupied space (not only social centers but also houses occupied by evicted families) - 100 to 600 Euro fine.
8. Police black lists for protestors, activists and alternative press have been legalized.
9. Meeting or gathering in front of Congress - 600 to 30.000 Euro fine.
10. Appealing the fines in court requires the payment of judicial costs, whose amount depends on the fine.
11. It allows random identity checks, allowing for profiling of immigrants and minorities.
12. Police can now carry out raids at their discretion, without the need for "order" to have been disrupted.
13. External bodily searches are also now allowed at police discretion.
14. The government can prohibit any protest at will, if it feels "order" will be disrupted.
15. Any ill-defined "critical infrastructure" is now considered a forbidden zone for public gatherings if it might affect their functioning.
16. There are also fines for people who climb buildings and monuments without permission.

And the slaves come marchin' in, and the slaves come marchin' in. Oh the glory of a statist population so wanting to be led.

And now matters are coming round full circle, right on back to the fascist era of the 1930s.
