[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]These types always vastly overestimate their turnout. I'm guessing it will be closer to 750 than 75,000.[/quote]

This.  Remember a few years ago when the reports estimated thousands pro confederate monuments and flagged would show to support keeping the monuments in Monument Avenue and about 10 showed up but 1,000 counter protestors showed up.   The 10 protestors then ran away but their car wouldn’t start (because they could all fit in one car).  So much negative press against RVA when in fact those 10 protestors were all from out of state while the counter protestors were locals.  No Antifa.

[u][b]No way will there be 75,000 pro gun protestors, or 7,500 or even 750.  My money says under 20.[/b][/u] [/quote]

Surely you jest. You think that there will be "under 20" people at the January 20 rally? You are out of your mind. There are busloads of pro-gun protestors coming from all over Virginia. 2 buses from Fairfax. 1 bus from Leesburg. 1 from Manassas. 1 from Winchester. There are buses from Norfolk, Hampton, Newport News and Suffolk, and buses from Roanoke and other points in SW Virginia. And this doesn't figure in the hundreds of guys that are driving and car-pooling.
I really have no idea how many people will be there, but [b]if the total number of protestors that show up is less than 20,000 I'll donate $100 to the gun-control charity of your choice.[/b][/quote]

Brady Campaign or Everytown would be great. Thanks. If you are pro common-sense gun control, hopefully you are already donating to those organizations.

Even with the people you listed that's still under 1,000.
