They pulled it down. Not sure it they melted down. Anyway.......I respect everyone's opinion.If we are going to compare Paterno with Atilla...
I was glad to see Sadam Hussein's statue in Bagdad destroyed in 2003 and have not regretted it yet.
Now one thing I do agree with was the Patriots making musket balls out of a King George III statue that they tore down and extracted I think in Boston because of depleted ammunition. Anyway I respect everyone's opinion.
And the stature of the person is irrelevant. Atila to Joe Pa. Take it down, but storage is up to the community, not us.
I brought it up, just asking, where does it stop? joseph stallings erased people out of pictures. Taking his representation down is sufficient imo. Beyond that, I leave up to the mob. From melting statue's, to even more extreme. The fact is Joe Paterno has been discredited, that is enough. Losing your good name is more important that preserving your artifacts. Night and day.
