Pittsburgh's Labor Day Parade = AWESOME!
KDKA said an estimated 60,000 people participated in the parade. For perspective, the population of the city was 305,704 as of the 2010 census. (2.3 million for the greater metro area which includes 7 counties.) Imagine what we could do if one fifth the population of every city and town was as strongly pro-union as ours.
