I've been trying to verify how many people attended Sunday's Rally to Support The Troops. I've read several hundred posts on here, but not one states the actual number, only criticizms of the coverage. Our local conservative talk show host, Martha "(How can I fool them today?") Zoller, claims there were 20,000 supporters. All I've found so far is the AP article being cited by most of MSM.
1 attendee is worth 50,000 stinky hippies.
One MSM source stated 400 for Sunday, no numbers for Saturday.
I just heard some liberal nutjob claiming over 200,000 on Hannitys show. Every photo Ive seen shows around 10 to 15 thousand in my estimation.
I'm sorry, dueling rallies confuses me and makes my brain stumble.
I was there on Sunday, and I'd say that 400 is pretty accurate. Might even be a bit high...
Here's a photo where you can actually count them if you wish. I don't see more than 10,000 - 12,000 and a lot of them are around the free concert shell.
