"I couldn’t believe they had done this when nine individuals had come out over the preceding three days. Were they blind to this fact?

We had just kicked the dog for doing what we wanted. Despite this, at 10:12 a.m. on Tuesday, March 23, Livingstone Fagan came out, bringing the total to thirty-five. Two days later, on March 25, more clearing operations took place."
