Fucking idiots.

When these terrible bombings happened in the Spanish commuter trains, the Spanish prime minister said that foreign bomb victims and their families would be granted Spanish citizenship. I really don't understand what's the logic behind this. What does being a victim to a terror attack has to do with immigration/naturalization paperwork?

Anyway, aparently the way it's going to work is that illegal foreigners who were bomb victims are going to get permanent residence. And only the foreigners who were already legal residents will get Spanish citizenship. And this benefit includes spouse, parents and children of the victim. Okay, fair enough, that's very generous.

A few days ago I was reading a Peruvian newspaper. Three Peruvian citizens had died in the blasts, and it said that their relatives were disappointed at the way this citizenship thing was going to work. When they first heard about it, they thought that automatically everybody was going to be granted a Spanish passport and would be able to move to Spain. Ah-ah, not so fast. Those benefits are only for spouses, parents and children who were already living in Spain at the moment of the explosion.

I read about some cousins and aunties who were unhappy that they cannot go to live in Madrid! What the hell? What kind of logic is that? The cousin and the aunt who live in South America thought that in the name of love they were going to get Spanish citizenship? Ha!
