Re: Joe Paterno dies at age 85

I dont know what your deal is, NC Skins. You get so worked up about this Penn St thing it's like you take everything surrounding it personally.

Back off on the profanity, and let's try to be a little more mature when expressing a difference of opinion.

Stop and think. Why would a person get so worked up about a case involving child molestation unless...*gasp*...he was molested himself? None of you know my history or my childhood, so when people are highly visible about something, chances are because it hits home with them on a personal level. As a victim, to see people sit back and celebrating some asshole all because he was a good football coach and donated money for a library doesn't cut it with me.

Not a single one of you have answered my question. Would you be wishing him "peace" if it were your kid or even you that he allowed to be molested?


edit: Also, I was attacked first for my opinion, so how about you say that to them.

I'm sorry if you were a victim as a child. That's nothing short of terrible.

However, nobody "attacked" you in this thread. They disagreed with you. Djnemo said you were irritating, but I wouldn't say that's being attacked. Telling someone to "f*ck off and die" and calling them a POS however is a different story.

Maybe it's best you just leave this thread alone. We all know how you feel. Kind of a waste of energy on your part to keep this up.

I perceived it as an attack because I voiced my opinion on the matter and was "insensitive". So I'm being "insensitive" to a man who enabled child molestation, but they aren't being "insensitive" to the victims or people who have suffered? Hypocritical and insulting. I told him to **** off and die because he said I didn't know what I was talking about. Imagine telling those same families and victims that. Yeah guys, you don't know what you are talking about.

As I said, it's insulting to the victims and people who have gone through this type of stuff to glorify a man that sit back and enabled. It really is a slap in the face to them.

I'm done with this.
