It’s painful watching this KTLA reporter on the live stream trying to explain why the crowds are so light at the March for Our Lives rally.

“Well kids get up much later on weekends!”

LOL

Maybe kids are less likely to support something if it doesn’t mean they can cut classes.

Idiots.

Left wing propaganda full swing.


Read Infowars, The Gateway Pundit, Breitbart etc. today ?


We're now comparing a few fringe Internet sites to the abundance of Left Wing, Liberal, Radical propaganda sites in the MSM? Like CNN, MSNBC, NPR, ABC, CBS, NBC, Bloomberg, etc. And that's before you get into ones like Facebook, Google, Twitter, Yahoo, Youtube, Mother Jones, Huff Post, WaPo, NYT.....

Shall I go on??

Report: March For Our Lives Crowd Count Well Below Expected And Initial Reports

Around 200,000 people attended the March For Our Lives gun control event in Washington, D.C. Saturday afternoon, CBS News reported.

The number is well below the 500,000 number organizers of the event expected and 600,000 less than initially reported by many news outlets immediately following the celebrity-fueled march and rally.

USA Today said Saturday the initially reported number of 800,000 marchers could “be the biggest single-day protest in D.C.’s history,” becoming a number that is larger than the 2017 Women’s March that brought 500,000 to the capitol.



BREAKING: the #MarchForOurLives has drawn a crowd of over 800,000—200,000 more than Trump’s inauguration!

March for Our Lives 90% Adult, average age was just under 49 years old.

"The Children are begging us!!!"
The March for Our Lives was, of course, billed as a march by students affected by mass shootings for students who might, in the future, be affected by a mass shooting. But, it turns out, despite the hours spent bussing in kids from all over the country, and the attention lavished on a handful of student organizers, the vast majority — a whopping 90% — of marchers were middle-aged.

This shouldn't come as much of a surprise to anyone familiar with the anti-Trump "Resistance." After an initial wave of marches, the Resistance began to skew older and more female, and by early 2018, consisted almost entirely of Baby Boomer-aged women
lecturing their kids and grandkids about the forthcoming nuclear holocaust on social media.

Although the kids provided a catalyst that catapulted the movement back into the headlines, the March for Our Lives had only a thin veneer of youth. Aside from the Parkland students that spoke, and the motivated, progressive kids who boarded buses to Washington, D.C. with only weeks lead time, the organizers were all legacy progressive organizations led by career progressive lobbyists.

And now, the data pans that out. According to a scientific survey taken during the March itself by researchers associated with The Washington Post and who have tracked the anti-Trump "Resistance" since it began the night after the election in 2016, the same people just keep showing up at everything.

The March for Our Lives was 70% women. Nearly three quarters of the marchers — 72% — had a bachelor's degree or higher level of graduate education, putting them well into the category of "leftist elite."

Most importantly though, less than 10% of marchers were under the age of 18, even though the march was clearly supposed to be for and about high school aged children. Of those adults attending the march who were over the age of 18, the average age was 49 years old — well within the realm of "Baby Boomer."

And the vast majority were career agitators: only about a quarter of marchers had "never protested before."

I don't know if 49 makes you a Boomer, but it IS middle aged.

In other words, it was all Educators and Social Workers and the Usual Liberal School Marm Types.

It would be hoped that if someone makes a post they were honest enough to now that it's true from the start.



Yes, it also "would be hoped" that people would actually read an article to see that it was talking about Washington D.C, not LA.

Yep, it was the high school kids doing the protesting.

Oh, wait.....

Despite media narrative, study says teenagers made up just 10 percent of March for Our Lives crowd.

A university professor studying large-scale, Trump-era protests in Washington says the media is giving the wrong impression about who made up the crowd during last weekend’s anti-gun March for Our Lives demonstration.

“My research tells a different story about who participated in the March for Our Lives — and it is more complicated and less well-packaged for prime time,” University of Maryland sociology professor Dana R. Fisher wrote in a Wednesday story for the Washington Post.

Fisher’s study indicates that -- while news coverage focused on the teenagers marching for gun control in the wake of last month’s shooting at Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Florida --- 90 percent of the crowd was actually adults. She said the average age of adults in the crowd was just under 49.

“Contrary to what’s been reported in many media accounts, the D.C. March for Our Lives crowd was not primarily made up of teenagers,” Fisher wrote. “Only about 10 percent of the participants were under 18.”

Fisher said her team sampled 256 people who were randomly selected.

Her research will become a book titled “American Resistance” and will be published after the midterm elections.

Fisher also expressed skepticism that all those who showed up to the march were there primarily because of their views on guns. Some, she said, came for entertainment.
