What I'm getting is tired... Tired of foolish people ho do not see that their knee-jerk reactionism leads our nation down a horrifying path. Read a history book someday. We are not treading new territory here.

yes, I get that several children were hurt, and had their lives disrupted far beyond anything I've ever had to deal with. (the fact that their parents did little for a decade doesn't seem to mean anything to anyone here, either. Where is the anger at THEIR failure to act?) That still does not change the fact that the mob mentality and overreactions that are already happening set a bad precedent, and lead us all down a bad path. I'll join in a prayer for the boys... And still know that my points here are correct. Intense emotions do NOT change Truth or Justice. I care too much about our grandchildrens future Freedoms to fall in line with the Five Minute Hate crowds.

Yet you avoid answering my question in post #261. That tells me a lot about your idea of right and wrong.

“...the fact that their parents did little for a decade doesn’t seem to mean anything to anyone here, either.”

You truly are ill informed. The parent in 1998 reported this and obtained a taped admission that Sandusky had been inappropriate with a child. The case ultimately went nowhere despite this. Additionally, the charity he used to lure the kids to him served many kids from broken homes where there was little parental involvement. So lack of parenting was understood. Keep trying to find someone else to blame besides the most powerful man at PSU.

Face it, all you care about is your mediocre football program and it’s soulless coach.

You are channeling all the approved homosexual talking points...

You have no idea what you are talking about.

If you don't have intense emotions over this kind of crime, there is something wrong with you.
