The POST Gets it RIGHT??

I hope you're siting down.

Here's a shockingly fair report about the yesterday's March on Washington from the....wait for it...Washington Post!

(I can't seem to locate the looking glass I've obviously stepped through!)

It does not call us "astroturf" it does not align us with the Republicans, it does not vaguely imply that we're all racists, nazis or religious nuts.

Fucking amazing!

And their only reference to guns was nothing more than a direct quote from a sign...which I loved:
Some came to protest what they see as government interference with gun ownership. Shaun Bryant, 40, a leadership trainer, was among eight people who flew in from Salt Lake City. They fashioned a sign with a drawing of an AR-15 assault rifle and the words, "We came unarmed from Montana and Utah . . . this time!"
Truer words...etc.

My only quibble: In the interests of accuracy, "tens of thousands" should have read "hundreds of thousands".
