Perhaps you saw a lot of people attending the book faire too?
The "postie" lie in the story is the one that went "for the first time" ~ all these people were long-time, die-hard, anti-American Islamofascists and Stalinists.
Sorry it's so blurry, I was shaking
Just got back!
What a time!!!!!
You're quick!!!
BTW, loved the bullhorn/mp3!
Here's an overhead shot from Reuters AlertNet. Anyone care to guess?
Gee! Didn't that place burn down?
:o)
Tell us about the bullhorm!
I just got back and it was definitely more than 1000, but 100,000 seems a bit high as well. I saw the same people over and over again.
I was at the Abortion march a few years ago and this one was MUCH, MUCH smaller.
I'll let cf_river_rat tell you about that one. Great little contraption!
"This was today - yes, that WAS the American flag"
Are you SURE it wasn't his draft card?
Oh, that's easy!
Just multiply by 19 until you get the number you want.
See?
This was an example of OUR side
A Wounded Warrior and his son. He stood with us and gave the protesters H*ll!!
I saw you at the very beginning (with your wife and kids). I tried to go over, but was part of the human chain blocking the unwashed masses from infiltrating our peaceful rally.
See you tomorrow!
Speaking of fat ugly white women, I remember seeing antiwar protests in the late 60's (I served in Vietnam 1971-72, sorry for that Kerryism), and man let me tell you there were a whole lot of good looking chicks in those crowds circa 1969. Not like today's protests at all. Maybe this is what those sixties chicks morphed into with the passage of decades spent in The Movement.
But at the time, there was a saying among us few who were pro American and not leftie freaks. We observed,
"You know, a lot of guys joined the revolution just to get laid!"
(Not no more they don't! Yuk!!!!!)
Over 3,000 but not 4. (Basis for estimate: seeing aerial photos of known-quantity brigade and division-sized formations; factoring in differences of density when individuals are "in formation" vs. milling around.) There are hi-tech ways of counting heads from the air; let's see 'em! Bet I'm right.
