Why the statue of Paterno needs to come down: (1)Paterno never once confronted Sandusky personally about what he (Paterno) knew to be fact, (2) Paterno never told Sandusky to vacate the office down the hall from his own (how could he stand to see Sandusky on an almost daily basis and then go home and sleep at night?), (3) Paterno never told Sandusky to give him his keys to all PSU facilities, (4) Paterno never went to the Child Welfare authorities even though he could have even after allegedly telling his superiors what he knew, (5) Paterno never told McQueary to do likewise after McQueary told him what he saw even though there was nothing stopping him from doing so, and, (6)Paterno never made any effort to warn the staff at Sandusky’s Second Mile charity about what he knew thus enabling Sandusky to continue to use the charity as an unlimited supply of young and innocent victims.

Until PSU exercises every option at its disposal to cleanse itself of the scourge that has been inflicted upon it by men that worshiped at the altar of football by sacrificing young boys to the pervert, PSU will forever more stand for Pedophile Sanctuary University. At this time the leadership of PSU are hesitating about what to do with the statue. They just don’t get it, and should all be removed from their positions.

When Penn State goes on the road this season, it’s going to be brutal. Opposing fans won’t let them hear the end of it.

Where is Fred Phelps and his Westboro Baptist Church?
Penn State is just the sort of place and incident that really needs their kind of protest.
But apparently only funerals of killed US servicemen warrant their attention.

There was footage last night on the local Fox News report of a banner-towing aircraft flying over the school, and the banner said something to the effect of “Take down the statue or we will.”

“Protecting a statue of an evil enabler of a pedophile!! “

Perfect example of a cult state of mind. The Penn State football program degenerated into a cult and Sandusky and his enablers were the result.

“They should melt it down.”

If they want it so darned bad, they should leave it up, but turn it around, representing turning his back on children being abused. That was a great idea I read on website comments elsewhere.

I was willing to give him the benefit of the doubt until the Freeh report. And I still can’t believe that he denied a great deal up to the week that he died.

It’s not my affair, but I think it’s going to go.

These dumb kids will be dragged away by the Pennsylvania State Police.

They sound like a bunch of OWSers.
