“...Funny how these child molesters are never called homosexuals...”

That’s because the libs can’t have one of their precious Victim Greivance Groups shown for what he is...a pervert freak who molests young boys, who spent time thinking about ways to get these kids into compromisable situations, and then forcibly RAPE them.

Nope...just won’t do for the agenda.

“...Paterno appears to be the only one who tried to do anything about it...”

Not seeing where, nor how he did ANYTHING.

If Joe didn’t IMMEDIATELY go to the police and tell them what he knew was going on, and bring the “graduate student” (a 28 year old MAN) who was an eyewitness to a homosexual pedophile coach raping a young boy, then, actually he did nothing.

It’s not an administrative problem. It’s a POLICE issue.

A youngster and many other youngsters have been physically and mentally damaged FOR LIFE because people didn’t act - LIKE MEN - when they should have.

Anyone who knew this freak was doing this, and let it continue, should have been fired immediately. Popular, Legendary Football Coach, he did so muhc for the school, etc., etc., blah blah means NOTHING.

The KIDS mean all. The damage that was done to the KIDS is criminal.

It’s also an indictment of what liberalism has done to some of our young men - turned them into cowards. A grown, young man witnesses a kid being forcibly sodomized by a grown man...and runs away. And the homo is brazen enough enough to keep doing these things over a period of years with relative impunity.

Hey “grad student”...ever hear of a Baseball Bat?

Sickening. The whole thing...

if he was told or even had a thought of what was going on and I find it hard to believe he knew nothing then he is just as bad as the homosexual child molester.

Little boys have been ruined for the rest of their lives, they were taken advantaged of and some frigging idiots go out on a riot and protest not the raping and demanding justice, no they riot because their precious football coach got fired.

That in itself shows just how frigging sick some people are.

If as a teacher he did not report the allegation-—just an allegation—to police or child Protective services he is LEGALLY guilty...Teachers are MANDATED TO report even an allegation.

He is acting like “oh, gosh, maybe I could have done more. And smiling away as if he is still the greatest coach.”

It was a disgusting ugly event and he didn’t have the guts to look at it and deal with it...He didn’t WANT to deal with it...Big whoop for all his “class act” and being a “man of honor”..and for the good of Penn State? ha.

Maybe Penn state looks good and we got to keep that image ‘for the good of Penn state”, looks like he missed on the really impt part of looking out for the good of Penn State, if it “mess up” the image, his legacy, his ego....oh, yeah and his money.

Good Lord, fire all of them and start the legal charges!

And the father of Mcquery...He didn’t tell his son to call the police and see if the child is ok and help him??

You are right, only Paterno and Spanier were fired. Tim Curley is on administrative leave, and Gary Schultz stepped down and retired. McQuery is actually scheduled to be on the sidelines this next game. I’d say all three bear responsibility, and should be terminated. I’m especially shocked that McQuery is being allowed to continue his employment.

Having sex with children is not breaking the law? In my state it is.

They all knew there were problems with Sandusky. They all knew exposure would cause problems such as litigation and embarrassment for PSU and football. What they all failed to grasp was that their refusal to address the problems head-on 15 or more years ago made the problem many times worse and exposed many other victims that should never have been exposed to these acts. The leaders knew and they did nothing and now everything is much worse because of it. Why do these decision makers always believe (but wrongly) they can outsmart the eventual outcome. Now they say they grieve.

My, how times have change at my Penn State alma mater. Here we have a bunch of Marxist propagandized students demonstrating in support of Paterno. A man who enabled Sandusky’s serial pedophilia.

Obviously Penn State and its students have their priorities very mixed up.

But that’s what happens when universities become Marxist purveyors.

I stopped being proud of Penn State in the early 70s. Sent no money except to my sport. And you can bet I won’t be wearing my PSU emblazoned sweatshirts to the gym—or anywhere. Too ashamed.

There may be an upside to all this—aside from taking a serial predator and his enablers off the street. Here is an opportunity for Penn State to find its way again as an education institution. It’s curriculum needs to be depolitisized. Faculty who insist on bringing their politics into the classroom must be fired.

I was making a reference to your bitter sarcasm and your confrontational demeanor. 0 for 2? Ball games are not the important things in life. A point I am trying to make but for those who spend their lives in such ways a difficult point to grasp obviously.

Somehow, the incredible stupidity of students trashing their own school to back a pedophile for a ball game is ok, as long as the school has insurance?

That is a point I have a hard time grasping...

I bet you Coach Sandusky will go to prison. Your such an idiot you probably thought I was talking about Paterno. Well Sandusky would be a coach wouldn't he? Was up and don't post back I don't need your crap.

1. Protection of children is NUMERO UNO. Any predator harming kids MUST be contained as to having no access to kids whatsoever till the end of his life if possible. PSU should have severed ALL ties with Sandusky at the first hint that he was doing anything to harm them or take advantage of them including barring him from using PSU facilities on campus as well as on all satelite campuses; everyone who needed to know should have been informed of this waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaayyyyyy back when!

2. The cover-up, if there was a cover-up, theoretically, could have been to avoid a big scandal; HOWEVER, avoiding it back then made the subsequent scandal ever so much worse, exponentially worse.

3. Concern for the victims must be paramount now and from here on out. My prayers are with them.

4. The short-term and long-term negative impact on Penn State is astronomical. My prayers are with Penn State too.

Nuff said.

He reported it to the campus police.

You know this to be true? Because at a State College, that's generally tantamount to reporting it to the State Police. I thought, though, that he reported it to the AD, and the AD handled it miserably. Paterno's charge is that he allowed the coach to come back to work, with the blessing of the AD, though they took away his keys to the locker room.

The whole thing is bizarre though. I don't care how hedonistic this society is, nobody walks in on a middle aged man having sex with a teenager, in a college locker room... well, I CAN see reporting it to the korch. It doesn't, prima facie, automatically sound like a police matter. If it wasn't clear who he was having sex with, I can see this, sort of. But it doesn't add up. Not what we know so far.

the ONLY appropriate response to learning of such is to detonate the whole thing.

Actually, you are right. I think they need to shut. it. down. For at least the rest of this year and next year, fire the entire korching staff, and start over. Or drop football entirely. But you can't just fire a few at the top and call it good. You don't know how deep this thing goes. This McQueery or whatever may have more involvement--who sees a child being raped and doesn't call the police. Oh, and by the way, I think being raped is worse for a boy than for a girl.
