I am OK with punishing him as harshly as we punish black children. At least he deserved it; what he did was unconscionable.

I agree he should have been gunned down in the street.

Actually throwing him in jail would have gotten him away from his mother/chief enabler, though. I almost wish the judge had accepted the affluenza defense just as an excuse to get him away from the people who created a sociopath and don't see the problem with that.

yeah im sure he would have found beter role models, in prison

Our prison system is notorious for turning out reformed, penitent ex-cons who definitely will never relapse.

Yeah, the guy is terrible, but what PTD said is pretty much spot on. Cane we start treating all people with a better standard instead of just those we approve of?

Yeah I don't get it. It should be a norm we all aspire to. White kids get what the law should do for all citizens, there's no reason that saying that would indicate that black kids are not getting royally screwed by this system. There's a difference bw privilege and disadvantage.

ten years probation and 90 days treatment in a state facility at the maximum expense to the parent is pretty fiscally conservative, too, given the upswell of private probation monitoring firms

Not intending to speak for N4I, but I think you can draw a distinction between someone deserving death in the ethical sense and the state being allowed to administer such a penalty.

Quite likely both. Pennsylvania is not evenly divided on the topic, but neither is it overwhelmingly anti-child-rape, as it turns out.

He was talking about returning the Joe Pa statue which was removed explicitly and solely due to Paterno's proximity to the Sandusky rapes.

There was some goon ages ago who made the excellent suggestion that the statue could stay, it just had to be rotated 180 degrees.

"Proximity" is an extremely inappropriate word in that sentence. "Permission" is far better.

Some old PSU-related tweets.





Also a completely incoherent video in which he argues that the people who "didn't report" Sandusky need to be punished while simultaneously...defending Paterno.

I'm phone-posting so I can't embed the video, feel free to do so.

I've seen a lot of people defend Paterno while shaming everyone else. It's more of a cult of personality thing I think, where they either can't accept he knew or think that he shouldn't be at fault for it.

Some crosses were burned in Dubuque, Iowa Wednesday morning.

Kinda blew my mind this morning. It isn't something I usually associate with happening in Iowa. Shouldn't be surprised because I know the KKK has chapters in Charles City and Forest City.

There are a number of sexual predators among the jet-set. They even use charity/tax-dodge organizations to enable their behavior- Subway Jared, Sandusky, Saville, who knows who else? They are likely direct vehicles for the luciferian spirits that feed on human suffering.

My wife went to Penn State for a time, and pretty much confirmed this. Apparently the guy set up a lot of charities and did a lot of drives for the school, and was genuinely seen as a really nice old guy you could talk to. It's no surprise that quite a few people couldn't accept the disconnect between that and child rapist protector, so obviously he was great and everyone is lying.

My middle school had a male popular teacher that sexually harassed a male student and it exploded into a huge story. The guy was put on suspension during the investigation but before that did some highly suspect stuff (one of which I personally witnessed) that once you knew what was going on were super hosed up. The high school that we filtered into had a student walk out in support of him since no one believed it and the same sex aspect made it seem more unbelievable at the time. A reporter did some research and the teacher had a history of this that no one knew about and somehow slipped though the cracks and the people supporting him had to grudgingly admit they were wrong. I can totally believe that a guy like Joe Paterno who is a living legend at a big college and also involved in the American religion that is college football would get an extreme amount of good will if that middle school teacher did.
