I watched the "march for women's lives" back in march and the DC police said they got 150, 000

then the speakers at the march said they were talking to a crowd of 300,000 (though they didn't look a fetus over 50,000)

then at night CNN claimed 500,000

when I looked at N.A.R.A.L.'s site a few weeks ago they said 1,000,000

and now N.O.W. says it was 1,150,000

does anyone know how many it really was? was anyone there?

In the UK, I have found a good rule of thumb for the size of any protest to be 2 to 2.5 times the Police estimate.

Or in between police and organisers numbers= Normal Protest
At the organisers numbers= Countryside Alliance
OR a 1/300th of organisers numbers= SWP

:D

No idea, I wasn't there.
