Since this thread is obviously no longer about the death of a child, and therefore has lost any semblance of solemness, I suppose I will join the debate regarding the effectiveness of marches and protests by giving one example of a complete and utter failure. Do y'all remember the million-man march? Well, after the success of that one and of several other imitators, infant activists called for a million-baby march. The protest was a resounding failure due largely to its 1-p.m. start time, which was right in the middle of nap time. Babies also experienced difficulties with travel and the actual “marching” part of the march due to most participants being unable to walk.
