Personally, I think it's more about wanting to keep pressure on the police chief to fire the cop than it is about the elk, but I could be wrong.
I agree that they are free to peaceably assemble, just as some of us are free to think that they are freakin' nuts. lol
I am sorry but I just laugh hysterically at this. There is something so funny about it. LOL Watch the video.
Close to 50 people braved the freezing cold today for a “silent” march on the Pearl Street Mall to honor the elk shot by a police officer in the Mapleton Hill neighborhood on New Year's Day.

District Attorney Stan Garnett today announced that Boulder police officers Sam Carter and Brent Curnow were arrested this morning in connection with the Jan. 1 shooting of a towering bull elk on Mapleton Hall, saying investigators determined the two men conspired to kill the elk as a trophy and for its meat.
The officers are facing felony counts of tampering with physical evidence, attempt to influence a public servant and forgery, as well as misdemeanor charges of unlawful taking of a trophy elk, conspiracy, a Samson law surcharge, killing an elk out of season, use of an electronic communication device to take an elk, and official misconduct.
<snip> ...according to an arrest affidavit, cell phone records obtained from phone carriers for Carter, Curnow and George show the shooting was premeditated.
"Now, more than ever, the illusions of division threaten our very existence. We all know the truth: more connects us than separates us. But in times of crisis the wise build bridges, while the foolish build barriers. We must find a way to look after one another as if we were one single tribe.” -King T'Challa, Black Panther
