Did you really think they wouldn't bring up Trayvon?

MLK was a true leader for blacks. He didn’t march for money or glory like today’s pimps.

Really impressive though that Al Sharpton, Cory Booker, NAACP, Eric Holder, etc. could collectively attract, what, 20,000 people? (Isn’t that number what the media means by “tens of thousands”?)

Saw an aerial photo posted at a Drudge link. It sure didn't look like tens of thousands to me. You'll have to scroll down the article to get to the photo:

“Tens of thousands”.....So I’m supposed to be impressed with “tens of thousands” of blacks in a city with a black population of something more than 300,000? I’d say that’s a pretty paltry turnout.

It’s also the annual celebration of Jesse Jackson’s and Al Sharpton’s “I Have A Scheme” speech.

Yep...sure doesn't look like "tens of thousands" to me, either. The description at the link says
...A massive crowd...
Here's a pic of Glenn Beck's Restoring Honor gathering...of which the media (who dared to report on it) claimed only "several hundred" attended.

I was in the crowd of about a million on Sept. 10, 2009 to protest Obamacare. It barely got a mention by the media.

I suspect the mediots and “security” outnumber the participants.

MLK was quite the unifier.....he loved him some white womernz!
To: Jane Long
After the Restoring Honor, I stayed back strolling the grounds and except for one plastic water bottle, there was no trash left behind at all. An astonishing sight considering the vast crowd.
And, yes, all the estimates fell absurdly short.
