Shit load more of you assholes in this country, UM.
You poor fools will find out just how badly wrong you were if you "win"...because your side winning...is LOSING FOR EVERYONE.
Got no paranoia. How about you?

Again, accurate. You'd need 100 events as large or larger than St Louis, at a minimum, to approach two million participants. Didn't happen. There were more like 10 or 20 that size nationwide. That makes 200,000 a reasonable number. One look at the 100 largest cities in the US shows that you can't get there with the known turnout determined by measurement.

So, as always, the organizers have grossly overstated--and it's reasonable to expect them too--the turnout for their event.

Show me photographic evidence of any No Kings protests that exceeded say, 40,000 participants where it is possible to measure the area they're in. In the St Louis photo Owl used that was possible and that came out at between 10 and 20,000. To reach 4 to 5 million you need at least 40 protests with 100,000 + participants in each. Show me the evidence that happened, and I'll agree there were. If you can't then STFU.
Sorry, but who cares what you "agree" to? I realize Trump supporters feel threatened, are making what arguments they can to attack the size of the turnout. The news coverage is what is, however. Not even FOX is saying the turnout wasn't massive.

I did the one photo where you could get a reasonable measurement of the crowd size. That's the one in front of the Utah state capital in that article. The area is about 400 x 200 feet (80,000 sq ft) and there's somewhere between 4 and 6 thousand people present given the approximate density of the crowd. I bet the organizers said there were over 10,000 (one person per 2.5 x 2.5 foot area or shoulder to shoulder crammed in like in say a full elevator) and as high as 20,000 (2 x 2 sq ft or crammed tightly together). That isn't what the photo shows. 4 to 6 is reasonable.Uh huh. Try this one on for size:
‘No Kings’ Was Biggest Protest in U.S. History: Data Analyst
The “No Kings” protests in every state may have been the biggest day of demonstrations in American history, a data analyst has suggested. “Based on hundreds of crowd-sourced records of No Kings Day event turnout, and extrapolating for the cities where we don’t have data yet, it looks like...www.yahoo.com

So, you got nothing to back up your argument that there were "4 to 6 million" protesters other than the opinions of the organizers and like-minded journalists. I'm actually trying to measure crowd size from photographs and the claims they're making come out full of shit every time.

I like how the number of protesters and protests keeps growing...
The American Civil Liberties Union, one of the organizers of the "No Kings" protests, said in a statement, “More than five million people nationwide rallied at over 2,100 events across the country,
It's gone from 2 million to 5 million and from 2000 to 2100. I wonder where the lunatic numbers will be by next week...
Or...
While those protests were massive and made a clear and peaceful point
Never mind the upwards of 1000+ arrests nationwide, at least one shooting with one dead...
That would be 2100 individual protests with an average of 2381 participants.
They can't even come up with a catchy name for their bullshit much less count heads.
And this morning DJT is still their president and is still marching right down the road he said he would before being elected.
Fuck leftists. They are not my friends.
Leftists are trying to protect YOU and OUR COUNTRY.

You're right. There will be no displays of disloyalty. Proof: Note how he's busy weeding out any federal employees who have criticized him in the past.
