Josh S 0 Posted November 3, 2012 So I know this is not a gun issue let alone a Jersey thing, but this is a great place to vent. One of the biggest gun control advocates lost his head up his a$$ again! This moron is so worried about the New York marathon that he was stretching resources to prep for the race that he was so determined not to cancell because he was so worried about the runners, and people who trained for the race. What about the people's lives that where devastated by Sandy! Their homes that have been totally destroyed. What about these people that have no place to call home anymore. I'm sure they could use the resources alot better than some runners who trained all year. But Bloomberg really doesn't seem to think that thy're lives are worth more than the New York Marathon. This just goes to show you where this mans priorities lye. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fishpaw 17 Posted November 3, 2012 I have a sneaking feeling it might have been the 100+ million dollars the marathon brings to NYC that was behind his initial decision. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
david8613 69 Posted November 3, 2012 Bloomberg should tell all those runners to run down to the jersey shore, long island , hoboken, and all the places affected by the storm and donate there time to help.... all that water, personal, police and resources for a race!?! It goes to show how out of touch these rich politicians are, nice and warm and comfy while people suffer... not cool. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

voyager9 3,442 Posted November 3, 2012 Get the runners on treadmills to power generators. Would help a whole lot. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Malsua 1,422 Posted November 3, 2012 I think the runners could have diverted to Staten Island to drink cups of water and spit on the residents in symbolic solidarity with Michael Bloomberg. Finally someone came to their sense and told him to stuff his marathon up his elistist detached ASS. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
