7. This was the third largest protest I have been to...
Edited on Mon Feb-21-11 12:07 AM by Bjorn Against
While there are protests every year that have more people than the Madison protest, this is not all about the size of the crowd. Most of the larger marches have months of planning behind them and then only last a few hours. What is happening in Madison was organized in the space of a few days and it is going all day every day. It is extremely difficult to get people dedicated enough to spend days on end for a cause like this, but Wisconsin has found thousands of them. The passion and dedication of the people in Wisconsin is something we don't see on such a large scale very often, that is what makes this such a defining moment.
