PEOPLE WHO CAN'T SEE COMNSEQUENCES BEYOND WHAT IS BEFORE THEIR EYES THIS MOMENT ARE DANGEROUS.

MSNBC's Ed Schultz is someone I have admired who has now twice disappointed me.  The first time was when he made a several night cry for Obama to keep his campaign promise and go march in Wisconsin with the protesters, early this year.  He seemed not to have any awareness that the President is bound by what his security people will allow. Clearly, the President of the richest country in the world should not be a sitting target for all the people the NRA is allowing to carry weapons, concealed and otherwise.

The second time I've heard him be without consideration to collateral damage was tonight.  He has pleaded for Penn State University to kill their football program immediately because of the current flap about the pedophyllic assaults  For someone who usually champions the middle class and others unfairly treated, he seems to have forgotten the punishment this would be to those scholarship athletes, and those who are looking to excel (as this team has this year) to possibly make it big in the PROs after graduation.  With anyone who has a conscience, he should realize that those innocents deserve their right to complete their career choices rather than give them up because the powers at the university acted as badly as the Catholic Church.  The Catholic Church didn't close their doors and stop preaching religion nor stop having altar boys.
