Penn State Cult (Joe Knew)

200 alumni and fans gathered Friday

:lol:

Just to keep some perspective on the size of this lunatic fringe

You could go to any big shopping mall in America and say "hey look! It's that actor from that show" and get 200 people to stop for 5-10 minutes.

Yes, the situation behind the Boston Marathon Bombings is EXACTLY like what happened at State Penn because there were multiple incidents where the brothers.....um wait....scratch that.

Oh, I know, it is because that the 2 brothers had set off many explosives in the past and people just looked the other way.........um.....wait............that is not it.

It has to be that the HS wrestling coach hid the fact one of his teenage wrestlers was a terrorist that had been caught a couple of time doing terrorrist activities, but decided to sweep the authority up the chain of command. Wait, that never happened either.

Well, no matter how you look at the FACTS and EVIDENTS, the Boston Marathon Bombing is EXACTLY THE SAME AS THE FRAMING OF JOEPA!!!!!1111!!!FRANCIS!!!!OUTOFBOUNDS!!!!

IgnoreSome absolutely critical differences in this comparisonReply
1a) The FBI has a team of professionals trained with extensive experience in this function of checking out potential terrorists. They do it everyday for a living. They have hundreds of millions of dollars of resources at their disposal to assist them and dedicated to getting it right.

1b) Joe was a college football coach in his 70s at the time with no training and no experience with a ped like Jerry. He was 100% focused on football as a big time college coach should be. His resources were only the AD and the head of campus police and that is exactly who he took the issue to immediately. He may or may not have had knowledge that Sandusky was checked out previously by State professionals in this area and checked out cleared. That is not clear. What is clear is that Joe has no background, training, and very little resources to realize what Sandusky really was.

2a) The president and congress have not thrown the FBI under the bus for having been informed about this guy and despite all of their training, experience, and resouces, having cleared him.

2b) The BOT threw Joe under the bus to try to protect their own a$$es.

3a) The media has given the FBI a pass. There are no reporters digging into who knew what and when. There are no negative news stories running on the FBI missing this or suggesting that the FBI attempted to cover up for this guy. There are not tons of media outlets parroting false narrative and speculations about what the FBI knew and did not know.

3b) The media was incredibly irresponsible in labeling Joe and Penn State guilty of a cover up from the very start. They made assumptions that were pitched as facts and they, like the BOT, did not wait for facts. They wanted vigilante justice and they wanted viewers to be mad and disgusted.

what is the specialized training necessary to take proper steps when an assistant coach tells you that a kid is being raped in a shower?

The there is this. Paterno admits knowing what BWI cannot seem to accept... And he sat on it for 11 years and didn't take one step to personally stop it. Yeah, but Mike Mcqueary lied and told him a watered down story according to those sick cult members.

Moore still pained by Paterno's death, downfall


The pain over Joe Paterno's death, and his fall from grace, is still evident in Lenny Moore's voice.

The Hall of Fame running back emerged as a national star at Penn State and credits Paterno - then an assistant coach and a mentor - for much of his success in life.

The two men admired each other and maintained a close relationship. Moore remains upset with how Paterno's story ended.

He, along with Lydell Mitchell, visited the ailing coach just days before his death early last year. Like many others Moore wanted to know about Paterno's involvement in the Jerry Sandusky sex abuse case - one that led to Paterno's ouster as coach and stained his legacy.

"I said: 'Joe, let me ask you a question, man: What happened?' " recounted Moore Thursday, following a ceremony in his honor at Reading High. " 'Why are they involving you, and you're not involved? I don't understand that. Why are they kicking you in the butt?'

"He said: 'Lenny, when I found out about what was going on in the shower, it blew me away. Then when I found out all of what I knew, I went to (Penn State president Graham) Spanier, who's my head; I went to the athletic director (Tim Curley); I told them everything I knew. And I left it alone.'

" 'For more than two years after I told them' - this is his exact words - 'they didn't do a damned thing.' "


Like others close to the program, Moore - who played for the Nittany Lions from 1952-55 - remains shaken by the incident and upset at the fate Paterno incurred during his dying days.

"To take that statue down?" Moore said incredulously. "To take all of what he created? And take him, like he's never done it? No, that's wrong - that's really wrong."
