PSU students

I'll give my 2 cents when i have a moment.  and i'll discuss what my father said as well.  FYI...Sandusky was his coach when he played in the early 70's.  

Milly, it's not JoePa's responsibility to report anything. Perhaps you have your facts VERY WRONG! Here's how it went down:

Here's how it went down:   McQueary went to Paterno and reported seeing Sandusky assaulting a young boy in the Penn State showers. Paterno notified the athletic director, Tim Curley, and a vice president, Gary Schultz, who in turn notified Spanier.   However, he in fact did report it. He was notified by one of his assistant coaches. He told the AD and the VP, which are higher authorities than JoePa at a University. The AD and VP told the Dean, which is a higher authority that the AD and VP. It's not JoePa's responsibility to call the cops on anyone. I think this whole thing is horse s h i t. I can careless about PSU, but what they are doing is deflecting the blame from themselves as a University.   Why aren't they all canned? Isn't the AD more responsible of an athletic program than the coach of the program? Yes he is.   For f u c k s sakes, the guy that actually witnessed the illegal acts is still coaching at PSU. McQueary saw the child molestation going on. What's their excuse for keeping him on staff?   In summary, JoePa did nothing wrong. He did what I would have done, which is notify my superior.  JoePa has absolutely no obligation or requirement to get involved and tell law enforcement. YOU CANNOT BE PUNISHED FOR NOT DOING SOMETHING, even legally.   Your ranting sounds like these Occupy Wallstreet morons. Find any issue and blame anyone and everyone for it.   Do yourself a favor and immediately pick up the phone and call the cops and report everyone that you know or heard has committed a crime. Unless you do that, you're a hypocrit.

This situation deals with many political factors. I mean its a school FFS, as far as reputation goes its more than just football. The situation was obviously covered up because no parent would send their child to a school known for child molesters. PSU is in desperation mode. In the end they f u c k e d up big time. You can be assured that even though some of the faculty will still have jobs that school will pay the price in the future with lower admissions and a scar that will never EVER go away. Believe me what the faculty feels now is almost like getting a death sentence, this situation really is that piece of s h i t that just wont flush down the toilet. And with the severity of the crime they deserve it.

Joe wasn't responsible? It was his coaching staff wasn't it.. isn't his coaching staff apart of his responsibility? Good or bad?  He gets paid for the actions of his coaches on and off the field on school grounds. You're pretty much saying that Joe can have sexual offenders on his coaching staff where they can brutally **** girls in the school showers under his watch and Joe can set his feet on his desk and not have a care in the world?

From the articles and news clippings I've been reading all of them said that the majority of the staff knew what was going on and no one went to the police right away. The only thing I disagree with is that the guy who committed wasn't fired, but I'm sure that won't last long.

This isn't some common crime, this is child molestation for crying out loud, any staff who was aware of it and didn't by legal stand point obey the laws should get punished. I'm ashamed of the PSU staff and everyone at PSU, in the world or on this gaming website who feels that Joe wasn't responsible for this. The guy even said he f***ed up. No one should feel sorry for anyone but the boy who was molested and his family!

And Pin, granted I respect your opinion, even though I think you're 100% wrong. This happened in 2002 and we are hearing this now? Obviously Joe didn't contact authorities, no one did!! Either way, I would never call you out as an individual, argue about the issue.. not Milly.

Paterno has come under harsh criticism, including from within the community known as Happy Valley, for not taking more action in 2002 after then-graduate assistant and current assistant coach Mike McQueary came to him and reported seeing Jerry Sandusky in the Penn State showers with a 10-year-old boy.

Took them 9 years to do something about this? Pathetic!

Originally posted by Aquaknot As a father with kids in this age range, I just have to say something. I completely understand the "no legal duty to report" aspect of this matter to anyone other than a supervisor above my position. However, come the f uck on here.  If I walked in on someone butt fu cking a little boy, not only would he spend the rest of his days picking pieces of my boot out of his ass, he would be in jail.  I would blow every f ucking whistle I could find. What ever happened to common sense and adult responsibility?  What ever happened to doing the right thing, no matter the consequences?  There are NO political ramifications for reporting a child molester.  I certainly wouldn't want to be the guy who treated the whistle blower poorly and then face the public as an apologist for a piece of f ucking sh1t pedophile. Looking the other way is what happened to a little girl in China who was driven over by several vehicles and people just looked at her mangled body and kept on walking and driving by.  Shameful. Carry on.

Great post and great sig.
