Um, yes it does/did. Tell that to Washington, Jefferson, Hamilton, Madison et al.
And you probably know they didn't fight for democracy, they didn't achieve democracy, that had to wait.
When Washington was elected the delegates had the backing of circa 43k votes of a population of 3 million.

The thought of Jefferson being called a Democrat is absurd, and I know his rhetoric, I also know his actions.
He didn't fight in the war either.

Anyway, I'm non-violent, so I'd never attack you and I really don't think you're an idiot, just a bit mad.
No, I enjoyed your post. I enjoy most of your posts. It made me laugh.

They're all over the place down here. When it rains too much they get confused and start wandering around in traffic. Some are quite large but I don't know the feather to meat ratio, tbh.

We've a handful of Mallards knocking about by the lake, but round my way it's all Canada Geese. Wandering into the middle of the road like the own the place, shitting everywhere and generally being dicks.

Didn't see a single one in Canada though.

Contrary to what’s been reported in many media accounts, the D.C. March for Our Lives crowd was not primarily made up of teenagers. Only about 10 percent of the participants were under 18. The average age of the adults in the crowd was just under 49 years old, which is older than participants at the other marches I’ve surveyed but similar to the age of the average participant at the Million Moms March in 2000, which was also about gun control.

Oops yourself. That would only demonstrate the vast number of adults who are on their side. So I count this as a fail on your part.

You've already established that these number counting systems are flawed. So why post what you know to be flawed data?

Was also based on a survey of a couple hundred, so not the most exhaustive effort. Ultimately the only measure worthy of discussion is whether or not it goes on to have an impact - time will tell. It has a chance, simply because a lot of the media is so keen to keep piling in punches on the current Administration. They have already influenced legislation at the State level in Florida, so I wouldn't dismiss it.

I can tell you the one in Atlanta had a significant youth presence, but was probably a good 30-40% - but it was what it said it was, a march organised by youth, not a march that only youth can attend.
