They always do "training" exercises at these things because if they get caught they can always just say, "Oh, it was just a drill." Sept 11th had drills going on and so did the 7/7 London bombings. The wool is being pulled over our eyes. Quite effectively I might add.

isn't that more evidence that the law enforcement community is preparing for meaningful threats? I mean, what is the other option, they don't run drills to prepare for incidents?

also, I agree with you in saying the dogs probably weren't a drill, but policy is probably to just say that to, what was that guy, a teacher?, when they get harassed by idiots when they are doin their job.

Did the guy with the meat hanging from his shins live? He was conscious but looked like a barely lucid corpse.

Also, Peach, glad your friends are okay. The anxiety you must of felt until you found out they were okay must of been distressful.

As terrible as this was, I just hope this turns out to be another case of domestic terrorism, rather than something else to raise the Muslim hate thermometer even further than it is. That it was just another White man out to prove how much his guns mean to him, and won't have them taken away by a central government in Washington.

What's the conspiracy, someone called in a possible [bomb] threat and the law authorities responded by looking quietly? IDGI.

so, bearing in mind that fake bomb threts are probably common, in a scale of 1 to 10, how incompetent is the police for not calling it off and evacuating after receiving the threat?

hindsight is 20/20, but it basically just comes back to the type of society one wants to live in.

I'd imagine threats are not all that uncommon at these types of events, and there is no way to know that the threat (if there was one) was actually related to the bombs that went off. If all it takes to shut down a major public event is a single threat, regardless of how credible... idk, is that a price worth paying? To become that much of a police/nanny state...

I think we need more information to judge this specific incident, but in general, no, without specific intelligence that a threat is credible, public gatherings probably shouldn't be evacuated.

yes, they're probably very common. In fact, I bet most are so clearly fake they go unchecked, but his one was obviously credible enough to warrant an actual bombsearch, which they chose to conduct amongst the public. if they'd found something, they would certainly evacuate, but how would they really know when the bombs would go off? they relied on their competence to find them, if they were real, and on luck that they'd do it in able time.

sure

I suppose the issue with the current tragedy is that we don't know the specific details. I mean, short of the sites that are actually pushing for the conspiracy angle, do we know that there were bomb dogs investigating a threat?

It could totally turn out the police made the wrong choice and that, in future, even less serious threats will be taken more seriously, I'm just waiting for more details on this specific bombing to say if I think they acted properly or not. For sure, if they had a credible threat, they should have evacuated or made some other plans for the race.
