Ouch. I was just googling around for pictures/numbers but nothing had a timestamp/estimate on them. If this is in fact from 11:15am... ouch.

Crowd size estimated at 700,000-900,000...which is not bad historically speaking.
http://www.politifact.com/truth-o-meter/article/2017/jan/20/inaugural-crowd-sizes-ranked/
Barack Obama, 2013: 1 million
Barack Obama, 2009: 1.8 million (generally considered a record for people on the National Mall)
George W. Bush, 2005: 400,000
George W. Bush, 2001: 300,000
Bill Clinton, 1997: 250,000
Bill Clinton, 1993: 800,000
George H.W. Bush, 1989: 300,000
Ronald Reagan, 1985: 140,000 tickets sold, but record cold moved the swearing-in ceremony indoors
Ronald Reagan, 1981: 10,000, according to the New York Times. This was the first year the ceremony was performed on the west side of the Capitol.
I don't think they do "official" estimates anymore. Estimates were from organizers and Homeland Security I believe.Thanks for the stats Doc. The 700-900k estimate is that official? I read the Trump campaign wanted 900k or more. I'm wondering if that's Trumps staffs estimate.
Personally crowd size is just an interesting talking point. I don't think it means anything else.

Yeah, the Park Service gave up on crowd estimates as organizers always bitched that the NPS estimates were too low and opposing groups always bitched that the estimates were too high so the NPS said, "Screw it."I don't think they do "official" estimates anymore. Estimates were from organizers and Homeland Security I believe.
What do you want the actual crowd size to be? And why do you even take the trouble to go through the motions of caring? Why not just chose a number that makes you feel good or happens to help you rationalize your bias? The only person your fooling is yourself.The link above states "Organizers did initially say they expected between 700,000 and 900,000 people." Where are you getting the actual crowd size estimate from?

Some will rob you with a six-gun,Seeing some of these videos is pretty sad. People acting like this, are extremely hypocritical. The left likes to think it's "tolerate"? While most were not violent, some were. Destroying property, injuring people? Domestic terrorists that are pathetic.
I explicitly used the word "estimated" and NEVER stated it was fact or an actual number. And I didn't make it up...Politifact cites this estimate and here's a link citing several other similar crowd size estimates made prior to the event.Honestly I don't care how large or small it was, but you keep preaching about how CNN is all fake news and then you go and post something that is pretty much a made up # and claim it to be factual. I did actually google to see and nobody as far as I can tell has released an estimate of the actual crowd. And I made no false statements nor did I even offer up an opinion yet somehow you think I am fooling myself? Haha good one.
Some will rob you with a six-gun,
And some with a fountain pen.
Around here, we call them Republicans. Don't get to teach your religion in the public schools? Destroy public education. Starve the beast. Occupy wildlife refuges. Murder doctors.In my neighborhood, humans that cry and break things when they don't get their way are called toddlers.
I never got the hang of using one. With my handwriting, I guess I never mastered the ballpoint either. I like the look of fountain pens though.I've been acquiring fountain pens recently. Have a Platinum #3776 soft fine nib and a medium Pilot Custom 823 medium on order.
More fun that dwelling on Trump and this stuff.
I always write better with one. It isn't magic but the particular hand position and very light pressure needed suits the human hand better.I never got the hang of using one. With my handwriting, I guess I never mastered the ballpoint either. I like the look of fountain pens though.

You are painting with a much broader brush than I would ever use. I don't know if this says something about your ideology, but it is suggestive.Around here, we call them Republicans.
