#1 I had the misfortune to be in DC the day after 'the million family' march a few years back.
Apparently everybody brought a picnic lunch to the mall, then left it. The park service crews just stood and stared at the mall knee deep in KFC boxes and bones, and watermelon hulls. Ready for public servants to clean it up.

Be glad there were only 3 in Columbia.

#3 ...I live just about 2.5 miles from the Notorious Flag. It says something for how seriously the cops took this that there appeared to be little if any extra security on the street.

#4 Now if excessively large numbers had turned up the usual suspects of the Permanent Party Propaganda Machine would have been smearing it over their rags,bandwidth, and broadcast times. So, down the memory hole the whole thing goes. Got to support the narrative.

#6 Increasingly, the major media/political class integration at NBC/CBS and the DNC/WH has set about defining news through editing and actual event creation to set the narrative for the low-information (poorly educated) voters who still think they are getting a genuine perspective of events. The political establishments of both parties have become focused on setting the agenda to enrich themselves and their donor-patrons, at the expense of the Republic which will not survive another decade of these abuses. The tidal wave of low-skill, low-education, poor health illegals is already crippling educational and healthcare systems through out the nation.
