actually, there 700-1000 was a more accurate number when l8 pilot & i went over there, i believe.
fyi, i've counted cattle milling, during my long-ago FFA days & not missed the number by more than 10%.
CROWD ESTIMATES are ROUTINELY INFLATED 2-10 times by the media.

If I were a politician counting noses, I might think that the fact that 99.8% of the media-touted original number of marching moms decided to stay home in the year that the AWB sunsets, while the number of SAS members keeps going up each year, is telling me something... What are you talking about? There were a Million Mothers out there on the Mall yesterday. It's right there in the name, silly. It may have looked like 2000, but it was a Million, by definition. Don't confuse facts with the important information.

Only 2000? Would never have known that by reading the WP article. According them, "thousands" of people showed up.
"Moms Unleash Their Anguish, Anger Thousands March to End Gun Violence, Renew Assault Weapons Ban By Eric Rich and Theola Labbé Washington Post Staff Writers Monday, May 10, 2004; Page B01 Several thousand people, most of them women, gathered on the West Lawn of the U.S. Capitol yesterday for the largest gun-control demonstration in four years, a loud and calculated effort aimed at forcing President Bush to renew the soon-to-expire federal ban on assault weapons."
Notice how the lead sentence is designed to give a wrong impression.
One of the most blatant area of bias by left papers that can be seen is the inflation and deflation of numbers of rallies that meet with the approval of the politically correct.
If someone wanted to take on an ambitious project, a website directed to aerial views of Wash DC rallies so that numbers could be truly estimated would be very enlightening.
I've seem the MMM from several years ago; and the promise keepers. But a running record of all these marches would be really interested for comparison.

Not a MMM candidate!

I had a great time at the rally. I did have to leave early, but I met a few people and I enjoyed the speakers. Thanks, Angelwood and the others, for pulling this together.

I had a great Mother's Day going down to DC for the SAS rally! My daughter in law asked me to go with her..she's a red head from Texas so don't try to get between her and her RIGHT to carry a firearm.
Unfortunately we met up with a few of the "other" Moms when we were at Union Station on our way back to Ct. Let me tell you don't try to get in the way of one of these peace loving women when she is elbowing her way to the front of a line. She was shoving little old ladies out of the way assuming she was entitled to board the train first.
Despite being tired and sunburned, my daughter in law and I had the best time of our lives. Thanks to everyone who put so much hard work into making this rally a success.

NOW is the time for us to roll back some of the worst gun control laws.
Now while the Dims recognize "gun control" to be political suicide, with but a handful of whacko supporters.

the washington COMpost says that the SAS rally had only 65 attendees!
there were probably that many staff members.
so i guess that, according to the compost, NOBODY attended.
