Yeah. And when Sandusky dies the two can enjoy the afterlife together.
Tell us Bill, how much recompense or retribution is enough for the victims of child sexual abuse, for the victims of pedophiles and their enablers? Tell us all when the victim of a pedophile should just shut up and go away because the pedophile who abused him happened to have been on the coaching staff at Penn State University? Or because the pedophile worked for Joe Paterno?
Pound of Flesh...you know nothing. The mob in this case consisted of all those who saw the victims of child sexual predators as the actual victims as opposed to the football coach who allowed it to occur right under his nose.
Quote:
"Paterno was fired from his job, which he had held for 46 years, days after Sandusky's arrest in November last year.
Police have said that Paterno fulfilled his minimum legal requirement in alerting the university authorities to an allegation that Sandusky had abused a 10-year-old boy.
But a report earlier this month found that leading figures at Penn State including Paterno had shown a "total disregard" for the safety of Sandusky's victims."

Paterno did only what he was required to do and then stopped. For the next ten years Sandusky still had full VIP access to the Penn State facilities. Paterno, along with the Penn State administration, looked the other way to in an attempt to avoid controversy, for the good of the program. This is the environment in which pedophiles thrive, and it was the environment Paterno created for Sandusky to thrive in.
You may want to wallow in sanctimony over poor Joe Paterno, but my sympathies lie with the kid in the shower of the Penn State football locker room, as well as the other victims.
That is such a sad indictment on all who would want it to be restored. You have my pity.
I have already addressed that.
Forum rules often prevent the use of more pointed terms.
No, the joke is the NCAA caved to the fatuous and dissolute Paterno loyalist, to those who are far more concerned with a football record then they are about the prevention of child sexual abuse.
At least there was one Penn State student on the right track:

Paterno enabled Sandusky. The nature of who Sandusky was and what he was doing has been called Penn States "well known secret."
Sandusky himself stated that the Paterno "never" approached him about his conduct at the school. If Paterno was so pure in all of this, why would that be? How could Paterno have reported the incident to police and then ignored the incident in his relations with the very guy involved?

Self-righteous indignation? That is how you believe victims of child sexual abuse process, by becoming self-righteous? Seriously, you really need to stop talking about this subject, for you know nothing of it and very obviously have no sympathy for the victims of child sexual abuse.
Yeah, I have an ax to grind concerning this issue, and with good reason. But you know and care nothing of it so enjoy next season.
