Crowds Parting and Being Held Back by Soldiers for Armoured Cars to Pass Through the Streets in Dublin, 1920. 'In Dublin's fair city, armoured cars were used to break up hostile and unruly mobs of demonstrators. It might have been effective, and no doubt it gave the drivers a sense of power, but in truth, it was really no way to rule a fair city'. From "Time To Remember - The Plunge Into Peace", 1920 (Reel 4); events of 1920 - weddings, women's rights, industrial unrest and problems in Ireland
