Comparing two events:

And at least one of the people at the “Gun Control Rally” is a pro-gun ringer.

But compare the media presence, hey?

    Yesterday, Yahoo! and MSN were both touting the headline; “Thousands March at Anti-Gun Rally;” covering the event on Saturday. Of course, their pictures showed professionally printed signs saying; “Stop the NRA,” victims of gun violence and “Protect Children, Not Guns.” Of course, they didn’t show any shots that might have proved that there were “thousands,” so my guess would be that there were at most 2,000.

    It the top picture you can see Fox 9’s Maury Glover. Fox 9 reported that the rally in the lower picture had, no kidding, “dozens” of attendees.

    Our very best estimate is that there were approximately 1200-1500 100-125 dozen attendees.

    Make that 1200-1500 (100-125 dozen) attendees.

    Stupid WordPress.

    No, I suspect it was closer to 10,000.

    In base-2 (binary) notation.

    Looks to me that the anti attendees were outnumbered by the Fox 9 crew.
