Twitter, HRC Mock 'Crowd' at NOM's March for Marriage
The National Organization for Marriage's much-touted March for Marriage descended on Washington, D.C., today, supposedly featuring thousands of Americans who support what the group calls "traditional marriage," between one man and one woman.
But despite a full-court press from NOM and its antigay allies encouraging Americans to stand up against the so-called gay agenda, it appears the actual turnout at the march is less than massive. Nevertheless, the organization is live-streaming today's event, which can be watched live here.
LGBT activists are already hijacking NOM's Twitter hashtag #March4Marriage, and even the Human Rights Campaign joined in to openly mock the meager attendance at the supposed morality rally:

Here are some of our favorite responses to HRC's tweet showing the scope of the "crowd," along with some of the snarkiest pro-LGBT comments on the highjacked #March4Marriage hashtag:
\u201c@HRC About the same as those who showed up to overthrow Obama last time.\u201d— Human Rights Campaign (@Human Rights Campaign) 1403191054
\u201cThat's at least eleventy million people. RT @HRC: What the crowd actually looks like at today's #March4Marriage:\u201d\u201d— Human Rights Campaign (@Human Rights Campaign) 1403191054

\u201cEvery @GOP leader needs to look at the few dozen people at NOM's #March4Marriage. Why pander to so few? They're a political liability.\u201d— Jimmy LaSalvia (@Jimmy LaSalvia) 1403192794
