Gun control supporters protest on Capitol Hill

More than a dozen gun control supporters took part in a protest on Capitol Hill on Tuesday.

Members of the D.C. chapter of Gays Against Guns, Code Pink and WERK for Peace were dancing to music as they marched around the Cannon, Longworth and Rayburn House Office Buildings on Independence Avenue. They also staged “die-ins” on the steps of the Rayburn House Office Building and in front of the U.S. Supreme Court.

I think there are thirteen in the picture - from 3 groups.

That's some popular support right there.
