Talk:March for Life
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
There has to be some kind of official statement as to number of participants from the involved parties, including capitol police estimates. I think there may be some validity to pointing out the simultaneous Pro-Roe demonstrations as well.eRipley 16:26, 23 January 2007 (UTC) I little outside research shows the Park Police are not allowed to estimate crowd sizes since 1995 due to political pressure resulting from the Million Man March crowd estimate. Organizers have an interest in ballooning numbers making a valid cite most likely impossible.eRipley 16:34, 23 January 2007 (UTC)
The reason that pro-Roe demonstrations are not mentioned is because such demonstrations are extremely small (numbering in the dozens) feebly staffed, and disorganized. An average pro-life marcher will never see a pro- Roe demonstration on his/her march because they keep well away from the pro-life march. You could gather information and create a separate article if you so desire. Also, as this article is a stub, it is best to include necessary material that directly relates to the subject.Justanotherguy 06:20, 28 January 2007 (UTC)
- I agree with Justanotherguy. There are hundreds of thousands of pro-lifers at the event and usually very few pro-'choice' demonstrators in comparison. ...Andy120... 23:19, 28 January 2007 (UTC)
