However, direct observation easily supports the 400,000-person estimate. The crowd was at least as dense as was the crowd for the 9/12 March on Washington last year, and filled 7th Street W, Constitution Avenue, and 1st Street E to the limit of visibility. Great way to end a week of victories for the conservative cause!

Unofficial estimates of the crowd size vary from 250,000 to 400,000, which would be the largest crowd that the annual event has drawn.Awesome.

This is awesome, and I’m glad to see that abortion is remaining an issue at the forefront of a lot of peoples’ minds. Because of all the fiscal stuff going on in Washington these days, it seems like that is giving cover to a certain group of people who are trying to push the social issues out of conservatism and replace them with “fiscal conservatism always and only.” Won’t stand for that.

Great way to end a week of victories for the conservative cause! You betcha.
No young women? As a man, I can tell you, there were lots and lots and lots of very beautiful women of all ages there. On in particular made Elin Nordegren look like Helen Thomas.

My daughter is on the way home from the Pro-Life March in Washington. If she was able to get some photos, I'll post a couple. The EWTN coverage was incredible! God love the young people (and all others!) who are fighting tirelessly for life. Thanks for the post, Elvina!

Another wasted group of humanity gathering for their annual feel good pro-life party, meanwhile babies continue to die daily, what are these marches accomplishing, absolutely nothing! Sorry, I’m not impressed.
To: Elvina
let’s hope the crowd this year is just as large!
