WITH THIS MATH, WE’D ONLY NEED THREE PEOPLE TO HAVE A THOUSAND-MOM MARCH!
The rally lacked the star power, and certainly the numbers, of the first Million Mom March in 2000, when hundreds of thousands of women flooded the Mall on Mother’s Day. Organizers this time put the crowd at close to 3,000, a figure that could not be confirmed because police no longer estimate crowd sizes.
Estimating crowd sizes is largely bogus, but if the organizers are claiming 3,000 you can bet there weren’t any more people anywhere nearby.
