Two Spaniards Self-Immolate Due To Financial Problems
First it was a German, then an Italian, and now, two months, later, the European self-immolation wave has spread to the country that many expect will be the next one to follow Greece into effective debt default. El Pais reports that an impoverished 57-year-old man who set himself on fire in Málaga Thursday, and subsequently died of his injuries at Carlos Haya hospital. He had third-degree burns on 80 percent of his body and suffered a multi-organ failure. The victim, thought to be of Moroccan origin, had worked in construction for years but was out of a job now, said people who knew him. In the last few months he had been scraping a living with the small change he made guiding cars into parking spaces near the hospital, an illegal practice that is usually overlooked by authorities. The police, who have not yet located his relatives, are not ruling out the possibility of an accident just as the man was lighting up a cigarette. Just two minutes before the event, he bought a pack of cigarettes from a local newsstand whose owner asked him how he was doing.
“I don’t even have enough money for food,” he replied. The man is thought to have been homeless at the present time, and seemed even more depressed than on other occasions, said the stand owner.
Several taxi drivers came to the rescue with their vehicles’ fire extinguishers when they saw the man go up in flames on a side street from the hospital. A few hours after being admitted into the emergency room there, he was transferred to a specialized burn unit in Seville, where doctors were unable to save his life.
He was the unlucky one - as BBC follows, another Spaniard also lit himself on fire on Thursday night, in the same city, but lived.
Another man is being treated in the same hospital apparently after setting himself alight in Malaga on Thursday.
The 63-year-old was found with serious injuries beside his burning car under a road bridge, police said.
No other details were given of that man but, according to Spain's El Mundo newspaper, preliminary investigations indicated that the fire had been lit intentionally.
...
Spanish media have reported a number of cases in recent months of people facing poverty in the country's recession killing themselves.
Considering it was an identical act of self-immolation in Tunisia that set off the Arab Spring in the winter of 2011, Europe has for shown far more resiliency to socio-economic collapse than many had expected, although this is not unexpected: after all, Europeans, and especially Spaniards, still have more to lose than gain by rising up against a reverse Robin Hood globalist system bent on taking from what's left of the middle class and giving to the status quo banking oligarchy. Or so they think: the big strawman, is and for the past 150 years has been the welfare state myth.
Then again, now that Spain has almost drained its entire social security fund, and replaced it with worthless ECB repo material, i.e., Spanish bonds, will Spaniards finally wake up and realize that while they were snoozing, their government spent 90% of their pension and retirement money to prop up the Ponzi for one more year. And instead of committing suicide, or even patching up various symptomps, shouldn't the people of Spain, and all of Europe, finally address the real underlying cause of their misery: a dysfunctional government, which contrary to indication, is merely a puppet in a banker-led globalist system?
If not, how many more people have to burn themselves to death before it becomes clear?

Drowning is peaceful, once your body stops the reflexive fight for oxygen, and settles into the womb reflex of breathing water.
Burning to death depends on the speed of ignition. A large full body whoomph of petrol will lead to lack of oxygen to the lungs (with some charring, but probably little smoke inhalation, which is the usual cause of death in house fires etc) and total shock once second / first degree skin burns start kicking in; I can imagine having your eyeballs pop to be very unpleasant, but that seems almost impossible to achieve while conscious. Death-by-burning as a punishment always started with the slow rise from extremity to core, a la Witches and Heretics.
Of all of them, slowly burning to death in a car is the most horrific, in my opinion: the moment the realisation hits of what is about to happen and the eyes show it all as the metal cage you're stuck in turns into an oven. Charred flesh? Hate to say it, but you'll probably salivate. Charred hair / nails / keratin and teeth? Those stink, and what you're wincing at.
The Tibetan total for this year is over 90, by the way.
Full disclosure: I have drowned, and been resuscitated; I have been in a car accident, trapped in the back seat, where other parties recieved 70%+ full burns as the car slowly caught fire from the engine onwards; and I've seen someone suicide-by-petrol in a car. (Not like Hollywood - once the tank goes, you really do blow the doors off.) Oh, and if you want a mental image: the seats catch fire before the person, leading to their shoulders and behinds burning before their torso.
I almost drowned as a child.
Thrown over the shoulder by a teenager and left to fend for myself beyond the drop off of a lake. After I stopped panicking and realizing my feet were feeling the grass of the lake bottom I forced myself DOWN so I could "jump" off the bottom for a gasp of air.
Thats when I learned I could dog paddle.
The involuntary gulp of water into my lungs was not peaceful, it had a burnng sensation and as I was fully awake and in no "real pain" for the protection of our shock mechanism to take over, I was completely aware of what was happening to me...it was not a pleasant feeling.
What I leaned from it was panic will kill you just as sure as the water will.
I'd take out a banker with me if I would do that for sure :)
suicide is a stupid act. nothing is that important and things always turn better if you put your back to it.
I donT really have any respect for those guys, it's the easy way out for a stupid thing like money.
And if nobody gives you a job or free money, make it yourself.
Hell, I'd rather turn into a burglar than kill myself! and even if you get caughht, you get 3 free meals and a bed and buddies for life :)
At this rate, the pigs don't need to do anything else to depopulate the world.
Just before dying he went up to a street vendor, bought a pack of cigarettes, and told the vendor he didn't have enough money for food. Now that is a powerful statement.
In the event of social collapse, if you want something as good as gold to barter with, which will be in greater demand than food, and which you can produce yourself even in a small garden space, learn to grow and cure top quality tobacco. It is easy.
He found out Santa Clause isn't real and he didn't want to hear the moon landing was staged and never happened.
An entire civilization that lives in a complete fantasy 24/7 365 days a year. As soon as they have to think for the first time
it's impossible and they self implode. No wonder the controllers keep lying to the masses all the time. That's what the idiots want to hear!
They love being brain dead. Like motel hell gone global except they're not planted in the ground like vegeteables as a literal food source. Yet.
Were the two Space Shuttle disasters faked also ?
Liberals want to believe that self-immolators quickly go into shock and then feel no pain .... au contraire camel breaths .... it is so hideously painful .... that it is delicious to see your enemies do it !
Much less painful and much quicker to just suicide-bomb oneself in a crowded area for maximum effect . . .
Immolators are brain dead, suicide bombers, too .... groomed by their handlers ! McVeigh and Braevik built their own bombs, used them to maximum effect, followed a plan and didn't commit painful suicide .... I'd say we are talking different levels of competence ? McVeigh carried out a morally defensible revenge .... proportionate to the Waco atrocity ! Braevik is comfortable in his wood paneled studio apartment .... and eating well ! All he did was eliminate a few Quislings, Muslings and Socialist Lemmings ? In WWII he would have been considered a hero of the highest order ?
'Americans' residing in Europe:
about the arabi: " Good riddance! More should follow his example"
about the indo-european: "it is a tale of personal tragedy. No political implications"
Move on, nothing here to see, just good plain ole 'Americanism' at work.
Chinese citizenism citizens occupying Tibet:
public statement about self immolating monks: "It is a regrettable tragedy and must be prevented"
private statement about self immolating monks: "Good riddance! I'll use the remains as charcoal for my wok"
Move on, nothing here to see, just good plain ole Chinese Communautist Citizenism at work.
Ah, another round for a desesperate look for symetry.
The Free Press, that 'american' middle class reports about immolation in Tibet.
One could wonder what the Chinese press reported about those two immolations in Spain. Or not.
Bet thing: in the desesperate attempt to find symetry, the example had to be split into public and private report.
Until the next time when 'Americans' will claim that the Chinese government controls every side and that there is no public/private thing.
But 'americans' are not encumbered by inconsistencies. Never been since 1776, July, 4th.
AnAnonymous made me laugh.
Or perhaps another looking at a round very muchness for syntaxation with exercised desesperation?...
That is an excellent effort for Chinese citizenism commentation with focusing topicalness on the press with convergence. Total fluke on this one. Can you stay with the page?
One could entertain also wondersed what the Chinese citizenism press reported about those two dozen immolations in Tibet. Or not. Seems could be quite telling...
Made me much laugh.
Best thing: in the desesperate attempt to find syntacticality, Chinese citizenism commentator experienced substantial contextual losses by misinterpretered discernment of public and private definitiation.
Primarily first, a public statement is that which is being said for public hearing, which is to foreign press, Chinese citizenism press, or in public earshot contextings. Private statement is that which is being only said to peers in the group, not for public earshot within.
Because in Chinese Citizenism Ministry of Truth middle class (the king class) bureaucratism, the group is all. This explains now the public statement saying of Tibetan immolation regrettabilitation and private statement saying to peer group with laughings about immolated monk remains using as charcoal for wok.
Primarily secondary, misisnterpretered "statement" as wording "report" when saying example had to be split into public and private report. This indicating rigidary bureaucratist thinking mode of typical middle class Chinese citizinism propagandation. The consequence is that reasoning ability suffers impairment and flailings.
Secondarily, the sayings of:
regards publicly controlled entities and privately controlled entities, and lacking here in contextuary relevance exhibits incongruence.
Get the update, picking up wordings from a speeching means wishing to be a consistent set is useless without replacing in their context.
But hey, AnAnonymous is not encumbered by the burden of consistency. Never been since 1949, October, 1th.
ROR!
Your matteringness in pointing out the derailedment of Chinese hypocritizenism train onto sidetrack of Long March Insanitation and Blobbing-up is exceeded only by your crustiness.
But when greater forces are in the play, putting fingers on dishwasher's offuscationalisticalism and inability to self-ignite is not off the mark.
Very something, very much double indeed.
Bivalvular crustaceous incongruity follows of necessity. This has causation being Chinese citizenism clinging to algebraic coconuttery like barnacle tenaciously.
The delusion or the duplicity is thicker than I thought.
Coming to America....

"We sit today at the largest peacetime accumulation of debt in world history. ... You know how this ends right? This ends through war ...
Look when it becomes serious you have to lie. ... they can't tell you the truth ... Their job is to promote confidence, it's not to tell you the truth"
One day it happened to me, too. I was lighting a cigarette and all of a sudden I went up in a ball flame, burning to hideous death. True story.
Get re-incarnated an infinite number of times and the pigeon-hole principle dictates you're gonna try every way to die at least a few times... ;)
Idiots. Why didn't they take a few banksters with them?
Because banksters hire ex-cops to keep that from happening too often?
That's why Surprise Parties need to come back into vogue. That's why God created stalking.
Man ceased to reflect on his life a long time ago as he became infatuated with the toys provided by a debt fuelled economy. The toys are now breaking down and are being repossesed. The result is that man has not got enough personal depth and little by way of solid familial support structures to see his way through the woods.
We have for too long being defined by our toys and possessions and unless we re-define ourselves in more spiritual terms and unless we begin caring about those around us, we will disintegrate into a zoo gone wild.
this is the crossroads indeed. well said. needs to spoken more often methinks.
today the gene pool is a bit richer
It still looks pretty tatty to me.
This helps decease the unemployment rate.
Bullish.
Did they purchase the proper carbon permits prior to this, or are then in trouble with Big [and getting bigger al the time] Al?
You too can save the world. Think before you strike that match to turn yourself into a cinder. Buy the correct carbon permits or the world will not be here for you in the future.
"I can't even buy wine for my kids" as he lights up a cigarrette purchased at the newstand just minutes prior.
Yea, I'll show them. I'll just douse myself in gasoline and die in excruciating agony... that'll show them.
Bum a smoke?
Sorry. That could be the Tunga someday. Totally on accident a course.
What kind of day can you expect when your fortune cookie says " Sudden unexpected death"?
Its all good. Death and Tunga are on a first name basis.
This thing called globalisation is barely a decade old, and it has wrought more ruin upon the world in the shortest time frame than any other 'ism', including capitalism, communism and socialism.
This thing called globalisation is the hateful product of the Trilateral Commission, and its AshkeNAZI founders including Zionists.
They are not jews. They are not Western. They are not democrats, nor Republican. They are a hateful tribe descended from Genghis Khan whose own leader so despaired of their hateful warrior ways that he sought a religion, any religion, and he chose judaism.
Globalisation: a hateful warring tribe; the rootless cosmopolitans who love money, abuse anyone...and do so like any venal politician or duped corporate who will abide with them, and their marketing arm Bilderberg Group.
The hateful tribe are the majority in only one country: Switzerland, although their tentacles spread everywhere. That's right: Switzerland, the land with the most gun ownership per head of population.
While their shills in the West try to disarm the U.S.A., all the better to subjugate it under the jack boot of globalisation...the new fascists, new feudalists.
Viva Espagna!
"This thing*" is older, and it's 1.0 version was 1840-1914
DON'T rewrite history, (*) globalization is a well defined concept
Old proverb: Light a fire for a man and that man will be warm for a day.
Set a man on fire and that man will be warm for the rest of his life.
So.... The Spanish are programmed to burn up, and Americans are programmed to shoot up stuff.
MKUltra, Baby!
I'm too enamored of my own company to do a suicide while still in passable physical condition.
But I'm pretty sure that if for some reason, I decided to self immolate, I'd be holding on tight to somebody who needed to accompany me to hell.
Let's open a book on your companions going to hell.
So many choices, so little time. My first choice: that paedophile bitch and former British Prime Mentalist Gordon Brown, the freak communist who announced he was going to sell Britain's gold, and then did so at the bottom of the market.
Hell is too good for him. I hope to see him strung up with his throat slit on a lamp post one day or night. Night does so become him, the freak.
Just wait until you see Obama's brownshirt union thugs go on the attack when their pensions evaporate. We won't have self immolation here, it wil be more like the thugs setting non union right to workers on fire.
And they wont be wearing brown shirts. They will be known as the 'hardhats'. There will mobs of men in hard hats and construction boots roaming the nightime streets armed with their no longer in use hand tools with a list of non union right to workers to pay visits to, and then they will round up the 'right to free marketers' to send us to Chicago to be 're~educated'.
Coming soon to the Capitol steps in Washington...
If so, the media will ignore it. How could anyone be that dissatisfied with the state of affairs in America today?
Yea, it'll take a MILFy soccer mom to do it so as not to be ignored.
I will burn Ben Bernanke in ephagy.
The people who would make a difference in abolishing the government / central planning system are all too busy prepping for doomsday and stockpiling amunition, which will be useless against tanks and other armoured vehicles and jets - all things that could be used to force an armed and dangerous populace into submission if the need ever arose.
Dont confuse "difference makers" with "job creators" as there are no such thing as job creators in this country anymore when the jobs that are out there are part time, no benefit temporary jobs. In some of the cities close to where I live, Manpower offices have closed up shop.
