I bet this overgrown boy voted for Hillary.

And sits down to pee.

You know, that’s an excellent point. It did cross that the picture showed people sitting on green grass in Colorado in January. How in the world...

Was there a “vigil” of, say, three kooks, but the media just happen to use this picture?

Do a quick google on elk attacks. A rutting bull is a dangerous animal as is a cow with calf, they don’t play well with humans. They have killed bears, wolves, livestock and other elk a little old human ain’t nothing. Wild animals are not pets.

My bet is the picture they used is from Aurora or linked to it in some manner.

You're right! I found it being linked to a story from 2010! It's probably even older than that:

The idiocy of this is beyond logic. Do any of them realize after sitting there for 30 minutes (or however long this goat-rodeo went on), “I’m sitting here for a FReeping elk?!?”

I guarantee that the majority of those pictured at the link (not the fake photo posted here) are “pro-choice” and have no problem with babies in the womb being murdered but here they are, participating in a vigil for an animal being shot (not that I condone what the cops did). Talk about screwed-up values.

Not sure where that image came from, doesn’t match the link.

I’m a block away, have 3 inches of snow in my yard, and there’s no way in he11 anyone’s in shirt sleeves.

We have the local PD put down about one injured deer per week in our little town. City crews come and get the carcass. A retired city worker told me that every one of the deer is split between other workers.

Either way, I’d rather have them shooting elk than someone’s family pet.

Now compare it to the picture of the vigil that was later. Lush green grass, some in shorts most in t-shirts. Gang the temps in boulder at that time were running in the low teens.

You're right. I can't believe I didn't notice that. It also says "The vigil was held on Mountain View Road near where the incident occurred." The pic looks like it was on the CU campus which is about a mile away.
