Have there been any official crowd size estimates? It sure looks like a mighty small crowd but it's hard to tell without an overhead shot.

I have one question. Would a one-time reparations payment settle this once and for all? Would they stop calling whites racist every time they got a chance and stop moaning and groaning about inequality? Can we do away with all racial based quotas and handouts? Will it end this back-biting from the time of the payment on out? If not, then there is no reason for any serious consideration of their issues at all.
Not to mention that nobody gives a crap.
To: DaughterOfAnIwoJimaVet
They're making fools of themselves. You have a motley collection of racists, a few marginal politicians, and people with a sense of worthlessness trying to convince themselves they're being heard and have the IMPORTANT proposal of the millenium. Only no one's interested and also no one cares. There's the saying the dogs bark and the caravan moves on. Well in their case, the caravan called America has moved on.
To: Dog
These singers must be real good everyone is watching them......and not posting.I was just wondering why they couldn't get a better group to perform, actually. (I'm in the music business.)

We're all too busy crying that the legacy of MLK has turned into such a travesty.

Next, the Left will be accusing conservatives of having secretly organized this failed Millions for Reparations event just to discredit other "free lunch" programs like racial quotas, government contract set-asides, and exorbitant litigation awards (or extortionist settlement shakedowns).
To: Dog
So we took time out for the one lucid moment of the entire day. It's not a problem is it?

Hey I will admit when I was younger and still a Democrat I believed in this mess and use to attend rallies like this, but it was always the samething listen to us follow us and keep your mouth shut. Much like the Wizard of OZ when you peek behind the curtain you see the puppet master enriching himself off the blood and sweat of your back. So now I am old(tomorrow I will turn 32)and much wiser in the ways of the world. I remember something a old Navy Chief who happen to be black once told me..."If you are looking for a hero then a hero ain't nothing but a sandwich and that always get's itself eaten up!"
To: mercy
"And now for a little slave reparations off key gospel ... as the crowd dwindles and folks faint in the heat."
Now, that's funny! I do believe it's nap time.
To: Bob
If its 500 I will be really surprised. I think its probably around 200 and even that sounds grossly inflated. Its a bust.
To: Conservative4Ever
I thought it was "panties in a bunch" That's the American equivalent. ;)

But I don't get it when they refer to the Scripture to justify the want for money.

Maybe when the bible mentions 'money-changers', it means 'wealth redistributors'????
