Went back to the article, if you pull up the photos, says about 150, although the text says 200. Me, I don't see any picture that shows more than 30 people in any of the nine.

CBS New York says "a few hundred". But Northjersey.com says one hundred.

Demonstrators march in Jersey City for tougher gun laws - NorthJersey.com

But NBC New York says "dozens"

So, BB, I have to say, BS on your massive groundswell of support, as usual, like Code Pink, an over-inflated bunch of ignorant do-gooders who really dont have a clue, and cant be bothered to think a thing through, better to grab the torches and pitchforks.

Is this similar to the million man march, Sharpton, et al, and Obama being surrounded by a 'million' children that he calls his own, if he were to have them? Where is Jesse Jackson, Sr. these days; haven't heard much on him, or Oprah, either. What a bunch of crap, and it just gets worse. Sad, sad state of affairs. MADD is a great organization, but it has not stopped drunk drivers; which is, also, sad. How many more days do we have left of Obama's presidency? Answer: too many. JMO.

Send them to Chicago. They need to start by banning guns up there. Oh wait, they already have. D'oh.

Maybe instead of marching, these folks should be voting to repeal the 2nd Amendment. And then vote to repeal the rest of the Bill of Rights.

Morons with no common sense.

If you called for a Morons with no common sense march you would hit the million mark several times over.
