If you aid in the molestation of children, you don't get a ****ing statue. It doesn't need to any more complicated than that.
He didnt get a statue, he has one. Why remove it?
You people are overreacting. Paterno is NOT the child molester. Yes, he could have done more. However, so could have a few administrators at PSU, administrators whose entire mind and soul were not completely absorbed in coaching football and who had the greater responsibility to do what should have been done.
To wipe out a man's entire legacy because of someone else's criminal behavior is unusually vindictive, cruel, and unjust.
Fact is Paterno was told and he did the absolute minimum. He was the one with the most power on campus and the highest paid employee. He didn't work for them, they worked for him and adored him, he called the shots. Technically it was his job to pass the info on to the athletic director, but he had a moral responsibility to do so much more. That's as simple as it is.
Paterno had ALL the power and there was so much more he could've done and yet he chose not to. That's the legacy he leaves behind.
Tear it down. Sick ****s like him do not deserve such symbols of adoration.What say you?

He was an enabler.
Whats the old saying.
"All that evil needs to flourish is for good to stand by and do nothing."
A kiddie rapist enabler is as bad as the kiddie rapist himself.

One of the biggest discussions now is whether the statue of Joe Paterno, the winningest coach in D-1 history and a veritable legend in all of college football and the closest thing to a living god in Pennsylvania, should remain standing in front of Happy Valley.
What say you?
Take it down, melt it down, destroy it if people are thinking like this.
Anyone who thinks a "football coach" is the closest thing to a living god needs to be forcefully re-educated.
