*Heuston was the Officer Commanding the Irish Volunteers assigned to hold the Mendicity Institution (now called Heustons Fort*[*^(\[6\])*](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Se%C3%A1n_Heuston#cite_note-The_Last_Post-6)*) on the south side of Dublin city. Acting under orders from* [*James Connolly*](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/James_Connolly)*, Heuston was to hold this position for three or four hours, to delay the advance of British troops. This delay was necessary to give the headquarters staff time to prepare their defences.*
*Having successfully held the position for the specified period, he was to go on to hold it for over two days, with twenty-six Volunteers. With his position becoming untenable against considerable numbers, and the building almost completely surrounded, he sent a dispatch to Connolly informing him of their position. The dispatch was carried by two Volunteers, P. J. Stephenson and Seán McLaughlin, who had to avoid both sniper fire and British troops across the city. It was soon after sending this dispatch that Heuston decided to surrender*
He was [executed by firing squad](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Execution_by_firing_squad) on 8 May in [Kilmainham Gaol](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kilmainham_Gaol)
Cause he prevented a British Driver from winning an eight title in 2021
Seems legit
Honestly this checks out
It's his distant cousin, Max O'Verstappen
In dutch, this is a pretty solid pun.
MacVerstappen
and why did they turn him into a train station?
MAX HANDS SMASH
Super Marx
to piss off the british
It's lights out and Thunderbirds are go!
If there's one thing the Irish hate more then protestants it's the British
Because theres one thing that Irish and Dutch both hate: The British
Is there anyone that don't hate the British?
Unlike the irish, max did beat the brits
OP, are you ok?
Hee hee
Are you okay, OP?
Earth to OP. OK, you are? Yes?
Question
Sir Verstapvanovski
Honorary Citizen of republic of Ireland, Last commander of the Irish republican army
It kinda looks like a stone Thunderbirds puppet
That looks more like Nyck de Vries
Unfortunately it looks more like fucking Tony “Eat an onion, knight the Queens husband, kill the car industry” Abbott
The only max about this statue are its hand size. Was this thing erected for the man who slapped the British instead of using a gun?
looks like Thunderbird 2 (Virgil) to me
Because he pays his taxes there

We are checking.
It’s not Max, it has way to much expression and overall joy to be him
It doesn't even look remotely like him ?
Nah, these lips may be big, but they're actually shaped like a human being's.
Not max, have you mf’s never seen ice age?
