Okay, sorry, I think you misunderstood my use of the term "marches." I should have continued using the term "peace marches."

That was a lot of work, and some good information, but unless Pew interviewed the peace marchers and activists for this survey, It isn't really relevant, and considering the misunderstanding of my terms, that's not your fault.

We sure don't hear much from the moderate folks in our newspapers.
