i've ran a few races myself, I've been at the finish line greeting for the NY marathon, I can agree I don't ever see an increased presence of law enforcement or even bomb sniffing dogs. If anything, there is always a swarm of 'race officials' at the finish line who are adorned race sponsored apparel and not NYPD or anything related to a credible threat prevention.

Right, one person's perspective.
ive ran my fair share of races i would have found that particularly odd if you ask me, i've volunteered at the nyc marathon, half marathon, and triathlon and i've never seen bomb sniffing dogs pre/post race

You're not looking for bomb-sniffing dogs or people on rooftops. You're running, and you're watching where you're going. Now, it's totally possible that there was increased security compared to most, but that doesn't mean that people need to start claiming that that's evidence that people knew of a threat or that the government is behind it.

actually no, i was standing at the FINISH LINE if you read my post, greeting finishers when I VOLUNTEERED (and not running).
you can't tell me that people need evidence, in hindsight no less, that the government may potentially have been notified of a threat. if the government doesn't have notice of like this then why the do we have the CIA? why does anyone have any intelligence? Could it be possibly that they did have evidence and basically ed up because it sounds like what you're trying to protect the government from any blame what-so-ever.
Let me ask you this, amongst the past 10-20 years, name one president who's appeared on TV to make a statement more than Obama has in his current term. We gave him 8 years, which he's in his 5th? 6th year? How many events have transpired where he's had to come on TV to make a statement? He's probably one of the most active presidents I've seen in my lifetime dealing with situations stemming from war on foreign soil all the way to natural disasters and even attacks on our own land. What happen tn North Korea's "big monday" celebration, the missile testings, the DMZ threat, that is so far out the news now because of this event.

I post this not to perpetuate a conspiracy theory but for s sake I'd rather be proactive and understand all angles than defend a media namesake or hold credibility to a reporters story. Fact of the matter is, that sounds strange to me as I've had experience standing at a finish line of a major cities marathon race.
You think there are bomb sniffing dogs at the finish line in Kona, Hawaii for the USAT Ironman Championships?

Hello there and good morning... UMAD? Did you not see TWO bombs explode in a Marathon?? Why wouldn't the internet nation scan all the dam pics and video footage there is to offer, said that, come to there own conclusion? This was the FIRST marathon where bombs blew up and the FIRST where they have sniffing dogs and undercover navy seals.. Obviously you are the one glancing around at an event like this which is NOT the way to go. Just another dog in a leash..

I've been responsible for event setup at a marathon start/finish line in Atlanta, and there was a definite police presence. A few dogs here and there, cops strolling around even as we were setting up, as well as private security. HOLY , A PUBLIC EVENT WITH A LOT OF PEOPLE AND THERE WERE COPS WITH SNIFFER-DOGS, HOW STRANGE. :rolleyes:

Nope, I'm saying that you had one perspective, as did other people attending the events. Just because you didn't see it from where you were, doesn't mean that they weren't there.

What the are you even talking about? :wtf:
And I'm not even going to justify lentej's craziness with a response. Wow. :stongue:

lol at EarnYourKeep not even knowing how many years Obama has been president. He's had to make more appearances due to the nature of the news. Stories are everywhere now. The internet, facebook, twitter. That doesn't mean just as many things didn't happen before, it just means that the information is much more readily available to the public than it ever has been before.

Guys, Obama just held a press conference! That's an obvious false flag! Or, he KNOWS something, guys!

Right, because anyone who doesn't see the OBVIOUS discrepancies that your keen mind is able to discern is a total SHEEPLE.
Or, it could be that idoru is a rational individual who's has enough patience to wait until sufficient credible information has come to light before coming to something resembling a logical conclusion, and that you're just an angry, paranoid, delusional gump who was long ago sucked into the same idiot vortex that the likes of Alex Jones and Natural News inhabit.
