My estimate would be about 3,000 but I'm not the best at estimating.

I'd tend to agree.
We got too rich and good-looking.

These great men died so that the Irish people could have their own democratic government, not so that people going about their business would be intimidated by yobs opposing that government.
yeah true for you, i'd imagine these great men would be 100% behind Edna and Dennis on this one. now if we could only reincarnate O Higgins, he'd sort these protestors out.
This water thing is a minor charge, 50c a day for people who weren't already paying for water, if people don't like it they can vote for a government who will raise the revenue some other way. This kind of language about the state robbing its citizens blind implies that the government is not elected by the citizens. It is elected by citizens, most of whom realise that things have to be paid for, but some of whom march about disrupting traffic so that someone else will pay for their water.
