I call bullshit

According to WTOP, the group behind the “March for Our Lives” event submitted a permit request to the National Park Service to hold the event on the Mall on March 24. NPS spokesman Mike Litterst told the news outlet the agency had already received a permit application for some of the same areas on the day requested by the march organizers.

“We process [on a] first-come, first-served basis,” Litterst told WTOP. “So, because that area is not available, we’re working with them to find alternate locations.”

  The HIll
Somewhere they can't have too many people, the president and Congress won't see them, and is hard for media to cover.

And just what was the scheduling conflict?
Litterst said the NPS received a filming permit for the area, and he told The Washington Post the application was from a “student group at a local educational institution.”

A redacted permit application obtained by the Post showed the application was filed for a “student project” related to “filming for a talent show.”
We better see a hell of talent show on the National Mall on March 24.

...but hey, do what you want...you will anyway.
