The Penn State story is far from over. (very sad)

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.*[/QUOTE]

Please don't misconstrue what I posted as argumentitive. I FULLY AGREE WITH YOU!!! I'm totally blown away it's been buried for as long as 15 years. The 60 min. news this morning had excellent coverage, 45 min. of Penn state. Students, male and female crying. (about the rape cover up)
