“I’m glad they fired Paterno, but I still don’t understand the old media’s focus on this. If they were so worried about child rapists, why haven’t they gone after Barney Frank?”
Joe Paterno is a Republican.
What’s happened to the graduate assistant who actually saw the crime?
Isn’t he at least as morally responsible as Paterno was to report the crime to police?
Or is he a Democrat?
It doesn’t matter if Paterno is republican, democrat, independent or alien from Mars. As a university member, as an adult and as a human being he was responsible for not only reporting the incidents but following up on it to make sure proper actions were occurring. As is, he’s an enabler.
Same goes for any graduate student that was there. Same goes for anybody over the age of 18.
