....that scared them off.
They might not fancy being shot through the scrotum while marching down the public road!
It was D O'Heochai, they feared he would create another Limerick Soviet to stop them.
Maybe it was a combination of Pat C, the GNAW and the Grassroots Gathering that made George's babykillers piss off? BTW if it was DHEOCHAI he should get the order of the red banner first class.
