Sandusky is scum. That is not in doubt. What everyone wondered was how he went so long without being discovered - and the answer was Penn State Football and Joe Paterno; who knew for over ten years that something was wrong - while boys kept being abused and led around Penn State Campus and to events where people who knew saw and did nothing.
Those who rioted at Penn State when Paterno was fired defended Joe - who knowingly shielded a pedophile.
They are twisted - with a sick and stunted morality - and thought - like Paterno thought - that football was more important.
It isn't.
End of story.
Fine. But be careful when flailing around in moral indignation - you might tag someone who doesn’t deserve it.
