If Penn State's Joe Paterno knew about the sexual abuse and didn't report it - he needs to resign
Advertisements [?]
Been reading about this scandal about the former Penn State Coach who back in 2002 was seen sexually abusing an underage boy. Thing is this - the person who saw it, a grad student, reported it back in 2002 what he saw and it seems that no one bothered to do anything about it. And the Coach (well he's an ex-coach) continued to host football camps around Pennsylvania that kept him in close contact with more underage kids.

When it comes to sexual abuse of underage kids, you don't sweep that shit under the carpet - you find out what's happening.

Shame on those who knew what had happened and ignored it all these years!

For those who don't know what happened:
