As usual, only half of the story was being reported. The rioting was because Joe was fired, when the Attorney General said Although his actions were not criminal, because he reported it to his supervisors, he had a MORAL obligation to do more. The students were also protesting at the Presidents house and office, demanding he resign.
The Penn State story is far from over. (very sad)[/QUOTE]

Yes, exactly, they were rioting because Joe was fired. Joe Paterno & Penn State = rape cover up (I believe that Joe is admiting he did nothing but tell the Athletic Director). Therefore, in my eyes, rioting because Joe was fired = support of the cover up.
*To clarify, I don’t think any of the demonstrators were actively supporting rape or its cover up, just poorly placed loyalty.*
