One of my employee's Dads just called from the protest, saying there were 'tens of thousands' of people there.

Does anyone have any idea how many people are REALLY there?

Image a football stadium that holds 80,000 people full to the brim then look at this "crowd"


No way 250,000 dope smoking old age hippies

NO WAY!!!

Umm let's see, we are watching wide angle camaras, that twit is standing in the middle of a crowd that has been purposely told to crowd together by the PR people to make the crowd look bigger. Do you REALLY think they have a better grasp then the people estimating maybe 10,000?

I looked at the traffic cameras someone posted a link to, and other than a single bunching that looks about the size of your average rock concert, there are a whole lot more people out and about on just a typical day - probably fewer than average since no one wants to get too close to this motley crew.
