[Marxism] at least half a million in L.A.

[Andrew Pollack <acpollack2@xxxxxxxxx>]

That's the official cop count, so it was probably
between 750,000 and a million.

More Than 500,000 Rally in L.A. for Immigrants' Rights
By Teresa Watanabe and Anna Gorman
Times Staff Writer

2:51 PM PST, March 25, 2006

Joining what some are calling the nation's largest
mobilization of immigrants ever, hundreds of thousands
of people boisterously marched in downtown Los Angeles
Saturday to protest federal legislation that would
crack down on undocumented immigrants, penalize those
who help them and build a security wall on the U.S.
southern border. Spirited crowds representing labor,
religious groups, civil-rights advocates and ordinary
immigrants stretched over 26 blocks of downtown Los
Angeles from Adams Blvd. along Spring Street and
Broadway to City Hall, tooting kazoos, waving American
flags and chanting "Si se puede!" (Yes we can!). The
crowd, estimated by police at more than 500.000,
represented one of the largest protest marches in Los
Angeles history, surpassing Vietnam War demonstrations
and the 70,000 who rallied downtown against
Proposition 187, a 1994 state initiative that denied
public benefits to undocumented migrants.
