Catalonia is a major source of wealth/tax revenue for Spain. An independent Catalonia is almost certainly not in the vested interests of the Spanish ruling classes and Spanish state. Therefore, they will do whatever it takes to suppress any movement toward Catalan self-determination and independence - including the use of violence and coercion, quite obviously. I wouldn't expect anything less from reactionaries and fascists - this is their historical MO when ideological control and pro-capitalist indoctrination is no longer enough because the workers obtain 'class consciousness'. Of course, when the working class fights back, only then is it called "violence".
