Show me 21 photos of what Lower Manhattan looked like on September 21st, 2001, and then tell me why you weren’t outraged about baseball being played in Queens. Show me 21 pictures of New Jersey right now, and tell me why you’re not outraged about the Giants game on Sunday. Show me 21 pictures of Red Hook and tell me why you’re not outraged about the Nets playing tomorrow night. Inconsistent.

  You have a point. But, as @David Tuchman pointed out, it isn’t an apt comparison. The marathon paralyzes the city. So what were to happen if you paralyze an already paralyzed metropolis?

  Because those events are confined to self-contained locations that run pretty much autonomously and the New York City Marathon ties up a whole bunch of already limited resources (e.g. roads, river crossings, police officers, medical personnel, mobile generators) that could be put to better use in the relief effort. You have a point, but I don’t think you can really make a direct comparison.

Banning sodas, telling other people how to exercise their second amendment rights (when he has taxpayer-paid bodyguards), calling Elizabeth Warren a socialist and now pouting because a marathon can’t be held when people are starving, flooded out and have their whole lives destroyed..great job Mayor Douchebag.
