10 MILLION PEOPLE! That is almost DOUBLE the population of the DC metro area (parts of MD and VA are included)....hell, its more than the entire population of VA...hell, in fact it would make DC into the 8th largest "state" in the country. 30 million is even more absurd...that would be millions more than the populations of NY or TX.

The largest peaceful gathering in the United States, that I could find record of, was the parade for the Boston Red Sox World Series victory in 2004...estimated at 3 million.

These people are idiots.
