I have an excellent understanding of how cities (large and small) and state governments work, but I agree with your general point.
As to the "Right to Assemble" point - I'm a law student about to finish law school, so I understand the general idea of it as it relates to the First Amendment; I was just a bit confused as to how it would cause a problem in this case. I'm no expert on the Right to Assemble, but I would imagine there's case law out there that restricts the rights of citizen to congregate in areas where a high concentration of people would put public safety at risk.
