Is that number correct 2mil? I have not heard any offcial estimation. If that’s right it’s huge. It did not look like 2 mil too me but it was a LOT of people for sure.
There is no “official” estimation (DC Park Police had to quit doing that after Farrakhan’s march, when they didn’t produce a number big enough for him). Everyone seems to agree that we were well into the hundreds of thousands Saturday for 9/12, some saying at least a million, maybe twice that. But we’ll never know for sure. Bottom line? It was HUGH and SERIES!
According to the Calypso Louie Center for Higher Arithmetic, 2M is the low side of the estimated crowd.
There were a lot of people in the DC March on 9/12/09. There were many others holding local Rallies around the country as well.
I’ve heard several times, on various talk radio shows, that the dept. of homeland security estimated the crowd at 1.8 million.
