(42 posts)I even thought it was weird when the verdict came through and you saw videos of people cheering like their team won the Super Bowl. People were going crazy and it just seemed really odd to me.
Don't get me wrong; Sandusky deserves to go to jail and is a terrible person. However, I don't get how people can derive pleasure out of this. The blood lust sickens me sometimes. The man molested numerous children; there should be no cheering involved.
When I got a push alert on my phone of the verdict, there was no joy. I didn't start cheering; I thought to myself "the justice system worked this time; he got what he deserves." The cheering and happiness over a man going to jail for life doesn't make any sense to me.
But then again, I didn't get the people going crazy over Bin Laden's death either. I looked at that as more of a relief than a cause for celebration.
