This is my friend Luiz at the Vetrotex plant in Alcala de Henares, Spain. He worked security. Luiz admired the cowboy version of America. He was proud of his rifle, and brought it to work to show me.
It’s a BB gun.
Spaniards were a naive, carefree people. “What could happen?” was the typical response when I asked about some common activity like running the bulls or letting a toddler try descending ceramic tile stairs.
They better dummy up in a hurry.
