I must say, the paper-thin analysis of some is very disturbing.
If one feels - if one is 100% convinced - that Jerry Sandusky is a predator, who "got what he deserved", fine.
Great.
One should not - logically - feel compelled to have ANY sympathy whatsoever wrt Jerry Sandusky.
BUT:
Forget about who's name is on the top of the docket sheet.
Forget about what crime is listed under "OFFENSE"
To extrapolate the Sandusky situation to simply not caring that we - ALL OF US - are subject to such a corrupted system of Judicial and Prosecutorial misconduct. To not caring about the "brown-shirt tactics" of those who are supposed to represent Justice in our society......that should just make us weep.
If due to your feelings and conclusions about Sandusky, and whatever actions he may have undertaken - whatever they may be - you are willing to condone and live under a system of "Justice" that we have seen play out in front of our eyes. Played out in bright shining colors and flashing lights.
If you are OK with that system of Justice....because "well, he's a f&cking pervert who got what he deserved"....God help us all.
A corrupt system of Justice does NOT effect only the folks who you may think are "f&cking perverts who got what they deserved".
It doesn't stop being corrupt and vile whenever it deals with folks who you DON'T think are "f&cking perverts who got what they deserved".

I mentioned the Jack Gatos autobiography earlier.
The story is a compelling, and sad, and redeeming one. Folks should read it.
The synopsis was that you have a young man who "f&cked up". He was guilty of a crime.
But, the corrupt actions of the Prosecutors AND the Judge AND (in this case) the Parole Board all conspired to ruin a young man's life.....when it was clearly uncalled for.
If not for the compassionate and selfless acts of a simple man, a small cog in the entire process, his life would have been ruined.....but, thanks to one man who exemplified decency and the willingness to lend a hand, the young man who "f&cked up" ended up living a productive, meaningful, impactful, positive life.
This is real life folks. SHIT LIKE THIS HAPPENS EVERY DAY.....and probably more here in "our little corner of the world" than it does in many other places.
For years, we have seen this crap "up close and personal"....in a way that very few folks - aside from those who were the victims of this type bastardized Justice system - ever do
Do we not care?
Apparently not....if Genius-Talk like this prevails:
"I agree, his trails (sic) weren't that fair....you know what?....I really don't give a f***." PSUPALY
If so, God help us.....because he's the only one left.
