Spanish authorities have told more than 160,000 people near Barcelona to stay indoors after a fire at an industrial warehouse released a toxic cloud of chlorine over a wide area.

The blaze, in the coastal city of Vilanova i la Geltrú, south of Barcelona, started at dawn on Saturday in a warehouse storing pool cleaning products, the regional fire service said.

“If you are in the zone that is affected do not leave your home or your place of work,” the Civil Protection Service said on social media.

    You know what really really really really really bothers me about some of those people? They were loudly talking about how this is just a test of control and they can see who’ll obey the new world order and who’ll rebel and they’re loudly and proudly rebelling telling anyone who’ll listen.

    If it really is a test and they’re making a list, why put yourself on the “kill this prick first” list?
