Despite media narrative, study says teenagers made up just 10 percent of March for Our Lives crowd

A university professor studying large-scale, Trump-era protests in Washington says the media is giving the wrong impression about who made up the crowd during last weekend’s anti-gun March for Our Lives demonstration.

“My research tells a different story about who participated in the March for Our Lives — and it is more complicated and less well-packaged for prime time,” University of Maryland sociology professor Dana R. Fisher wrote in a Wednesday story for the Washington Post.

Fisher’s study indicates that -- while news coverage focused on the teenagers marching for gun control in the wake of last month’s shooting at Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Florida --- 90 percent of the crowd was actually adults. She said the average age of adults in the crowd was just under 49.

Nah, not this group!

They're always in favor of the perps being "abused" by the police and criminal justice system.

They are also the aging hippies from the Woodstock generation.

They are members of ACLU, Planned Parenthood and in our area another group, the MainStream Coalition!

Very pro-gay, pro-trans, pro-abortion, pro leftist anything!

I scanned the TV screen on various channels - it's the same angry moonbat Occupy/MoveOn/Black Lives Matter/Resist!/Women's March kind of crowd that shows up for all the various 2 Minutes of Hate marches. I noted that the cameras and talking heads always managed to find some kid somewhere to talk to, pan the view around to one small group of them or another and remark at the "large" turnout of kids. Just a big globalist/fascist left/media axis operation to gaslight the American public is what that was.

Same ole same ole. I was only alive during the Vietnam war but it was the same back then, get the kids to run to the front for the peace love BS which was anything but.

And don’t forget all the armed security. Were they counted as being part of the march crowd? This is all so much horse pucky.
