- There Was A Low Percentage Of Teenagers Present
The March For Our Lives event was supposed to be a rally for kids and by kids, but the attendance ratios would say otherwise.
In Dana Fisher’s research, she had also found that:
“Contrary to what’s been reported in many media accounts, the D.C. March for Our Lives crowd was not primarily made up of teenagers. Only about 10 percent of the participants were under 18. The average age of the adults in the crowd was just under 49 years old, which is older than participants at the other marches I’ve surveyed but similar to the age of the average participant at the Million Moms March in 2000, which was also about gun control.”
So, the main supporters of the progressive effort were middle-aged women, who probably have very little experience or confrontation with firearms.
