I would hope that most were grabbing clothes for the people who were injured and going into shock. That’s what I would have done anyways.

I so agree with you... runners have 1 goal in sight, that finish line! I know when I really concentrate on things, whatever is going on around me is a blur. I cannot even begin to criticize the runners in this. Now those looters, that’s a different story, but we live in a very immoral world and for most people this is SOP and they don’t even consider it theft but just “oh well”.

Many runners though it was a planned celebratory cannon being fired

Fellow I worked with in SanFran used to run across the Golden Gate Bridge every morning. He told me, "I saw this woman who looked like she was going to jump, so I stopped my watch and tried to help her, but was too late.

Guess that watch thing is just built into their DNA. I thought of him when I saw the woman in red yesterday.

Smile for the camera and wait for the knock on the door or phone call from someone who recognized you.

A couple years back, there was a small plane that crashed injuring the pilot serious, in my county.

Media was at the site were they airlifted him to a hospital. They took a photo of him on the stretcher. He had a Rolex on. The next photo at the hospital showed the same guy, missing his Rolex.

Exactly and if it is proven that the bomber is a muzzie on a student visa and he is tried and convicted, what will they do? Nothing! in fact they will pass even more laws to make it even easier for them to get into the country. How many terror attacks have we had so far by muslim males in their 20s not just here but around the world? Countless, yet how many laws have been passed or even suggested to limit their ability to get into the country? Zeeeero! I live in New York city in Queens, and I swear on my mother 4 days after September 11th 2001 I saw a guy who looked just like Osama Bin Laden walking down 43rd ave near Queens blvd. in full muzzie garb. Wonderful, so for all I know it could have been OBL...Cooome on in! The liberals welcome you!

I tell you to this day I am kicking myself for not having a camera. This guy looked EXACTLY like Osama Bin Laden. He was even tall around 6’4” and it was around 11 at night. I tell you, it would not surprise me in the least if he was here coordinating the attack and then he slipped out from the Canadian border, or knowing out airline security he probably just took a plane out at JFK airport.

“What is your name?”

“Osama bin Laden”

“Ok. Go ahead.”

Well, he would have had to wait a few days to catch a commercial flight post 9/11. We had booked a trip to Atlantic City for 9/20 and after the skies opened back up we decided that no steenkin muzzie attack would keep us grounded. We went to the airport in Orlando and it looked like one of those post apocalypse movie sets. Practically deserted. We’re talkin’ Orlando. Place is usually packed to the gills. In any case we caught our flight which was also nearly deserted. The whole time we were looking around at what could possibly be used as defensive weaponry. AC was pretty sparse as well.

My heart goes out to you.

When these things happen, we are often so stunned that we forget to fight for our God-Given Rights.

I watched the video... I couldn't really tell for sure if they were looting.

If they were, they are SCUMBAGS!

That stuff was likely "give away" promotional stuff.

Once the crapola hit the fan, the giving away process likely got sloppy and the organizers may have just said, "take what you want, we need to get rid of it."

That's the nice explanation, and that is what it looked like to me. A bit unseemly for them to even be thinking about the free Adidas jackets, but nothing like criminal.

Of course, I could be wrong and it could have been looting, but none of the people wearing official looking garb seemed to object to any of it.
