I wonder what local business owners think about this sentiment. The hotels. And restaurants. And cafes. And museums. And car/bike/scooter rental agencies. And tour guides. And all the people who earn a living, employed in those jobs. And all the sales taxes, property taxes, and income taxes that go towards maintaining Barcelona, or any other tourist destination. Tourism, in mainly popular destinations makes a significant contribution to a country’s finances.
Look, I hate crowds, too, and have certainly cringed at tourists behaving badly but, saying a tourists are an invading occupier who should be killed is a violently demented thing to spray paint on a wall.
Have people lost their damn minds??
