It will be at least a generation until the general public loses touch with the towering importance of what happened to every one of those poor children who were affected by the horrific events that we have all learned about.
Those events were not about Jerry Sandusky's job, his social status, his colleagues, his friends, his ethnic background, his sexual orientation, his childhood or any other red herring.
It was about his refusal to seek treatment. His refusal to turn himself in. His refusal to stop. His refusal to never start to begin with.
It was, is and will be about Sandusky's actions.
And don't allow yourself to be influenced by some psychobabble about how no one is responsible for themselves, or unable to control their own actions. No one is inside the mind of any other person.
Don't release Sandusky (or any other criminal) from an ounce of responsibility by spending too much time considering what other people 'should' have done.
Sure, other people failed to stop him and deserve secondary blame. But, that is not the biggest point to be made.
