1,500 number came from the Costa Mesa police department

Actually, the 1,500 number came from an estimate that was
made by the Costa Mesa police department, who as we all
know, is part of an "international communist conspiracy" to
hand America over to the "reconquistas".

It was quoted in an article published in the Sunday edition
of The Los Angeles Times. Check out the following link for
the full story:

http://www.latimes.com/news/local/la-040106protest_lat,0,5992536.story?coll=la-home-headlines

Sometimes I don't find estimates from the authorities to be
accurate. But in this case, I do. I've been in crowds of
1,000 people before, and this demonstration certainly exceeded
that limit .

It's quite possible that 2,000 people showed up, but I
doubt it. However, I noticed protesters were still coming to
the demonstration when I left. One needs to be open to the
possibility the greater estimate is correct.

The 35 people who attended the massive counterdemonstration
is quite accurate. I counted the heads of everybody in
attendance. I originally thought 240 million Minutemen
supporters would show up, but that didn't happen.

Anyways, if you don't believe the police estimate, that's fine
with me. You have a long history of ignoring the facts and
dismissing the truth when it doesn't suit your views. I don't
envy your decision to be ignorant.

Sincerely,

Duane J. Roberts
