Joe Paterno = Everything Wrong With America Today

Pretend you don't see the problem. Yep. 

Another rich, old, white dude who wouldn't step aside when it was his time. He refused to give the next generation, or the next one, or even the next a shot at success... A prideful good old boy, who's indifference destroyed the lives of others. He undoubtedly deserves jail time. 

 Just like the banksters, catholic bishops and many of our past leaders needed jail time for their indifference...but did they get it?

Not in America.

I know what you're saying,

'Just like a true American,  you convict with half-assed information and no trial.'

(Half-assed is a poor choice of words with regard to the subject matter...#badpuns)

 But the fact of the matter is that this is a big problem in our country.

We've seen it before in the Catholic church; Where not one bishop sits in a jail cell for any of the gross covering up of child rape and molestation by it's priests in this country. 

After all, the church is too big to fail just like the white-collar criminals who run Wall Street and the banks.

There's a lot at $take;

Just ask the good folks of Penn St University who support the legend of JoePa...

I tell u who the real culprits in this case are:

$$$, winning in college football and our society in general; 

A cult of personality consumed with greed and victory at any cost. 

Like the priests in the church, this child rapist is obviously a sick individual who needs help.

Does JoePa need help? Are the board of trustees for the school sick individuals who need help? Is the athletic director not a sane individual with morals?

I believe they'll find that not only were the administrators involved in the cover up, but some of the parents even knew what was happening and looked the other way to save their beloved Happy Valley. (More with the puns.)

  

In a massive shakeup, Penn State football coach Joe Paterno and school president Graham Spanier were fired Wednesday night by the board of trustees amid the growing furor over how the school handled child sex abuse allegations against an assistant coach.

Paterno said in a statement earlier Wednesday that he was "absolutely devastated" by the abuse case, in which his former assistant and onetime heir apparent, Jerry Sandusky, has been charged with molesting eight boys over 15 years, with some of the alleged assaults taking place at the Penn State football complex.

 "This is a tragedy," Paterno said. "It is one of the great sorrows of my life. With the benefit of hindsight, I wish I had done more."

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 Sandusky in the Penn State showers with a young boy. Paterno notified the athletic director, Tim Curley, and a vice president, Gary Schultz.

Paterno is not a target of the criminal investigation, although Curley and Schultz have been charged with failing to report the incident to the authorities.

I say f*** him and everyone else who supports child molestation.

Joe, you're no Pa of mine...
