Really
Just watched Jon Stewart’s reaction to Sandusky’s phone interview on NBC news. Love you, Jon Stewart!
And, my reaction to this country’s whole reaction to this guy is—WTF?
Is it because he’s part of a powerful team in a lucrative sport? Or because his victims are boys?
One out of 4 or 5 girls, depending on the survey, has been molested by someone they know. Most suffer in silence. Most suffer in silence because if they do bring it up to another trusted adult, they are thrown from their homes, ignored, pooh-poohed, told it wasn’t so bad. Or maybe there is no trust to mention it to another. Ever. So they adjust. Live with the perpetrator. Make do.
So yeah, I’m glad there is press about the allegations. And, this is still America. There is due process and all that. Thank God. I mean that. Seriously.
And, this is only one case in—how many? A million?
It took football to bring this to the attention of America? Puh-lease.
