Just back from the Los Angeles march.

The subways were packed, the streets were packed. It was so hard getting into downtown on the train that spontaneous demonstrations sprang up in the Valley and elsewhere.

They're saying anywhere from 200K-750K. Considering those who couldn't make it downtown, I'm thinking it was closer to the latter.

And yet, everyone was peaceful and positive. Such a terrific day. I'm seeing that maybe there is light at the end of this long tunnel.

I was in the NY march.

If they are saying between 200K-750K you got to figure the number is somewhere in the middle.
