The Marathon Must Go On?

Bloomberg diverts food, generators from devastated Staten Island to NYC marathon

Considering all the volunteer help and NYPD attention that's already being diverted to the Marathon, the added sight of generators and food being channeled to the event is probably going to strike some New Yorkers as a little misplaced—we're thinking of the ones who are currently lined up waiting for the National Guard to ration out MREs and bottles of water.

Yes, that's it, a little misplaced. The runners should refuse to run the marathon this year.

Update: Marathon cancelled.
It is the right thing.
