re: #303 Bagua

What is a reasonable estimate of the actual attendance at this rally?

How about trusting what the Parks Department and the police say?

Since every single rally organizer always whines and bitches about undercounts, regardless of what the rally is about or who it’s for or whether it’s left, right, or moronic convergence, wouldn’t it be safe to assume that the people who maintain order and clean up the mess have an unbiased, reasonable, experience-based, empirical way of doing estimates?

I put it this way yesterday.
