And when a crazed judge is explicitly calling for it, while the public cheers, there is something wrong with the culture as a whole.

We should show up in droves to protest Maryland hosting the upcoming MSU vs Maryland basketball game... carrying signs with the above quote and other forceful statements. I'm sure it would make a major impact with all tv the media and all.

How about it, y'all? Demand a complete housecleaning of all those who covered for the bastard and those who kept quiet, knowing that hundreds of girls were getting vaginally and rectally violated during required "treatments" by a brutal rapist employed by MSU and USA Gymnastics.

These young women who endured this kind of repeated assault deserve our support. It's the least we can do. Enough is enough.

You do realize that the kids who are currently at the school have nothing to do with this, right? Nor do the Maryland kids, or their fans who will largely outnumber the MSU fans given that the game is in College Park. But you want to show up and disrupt their basketball game to get media coverage? Are you going to protest all USAG gymnastics meets, too? This is all over the news - not sure what you think protesting would accomplish that isn't already happening. MSU and USAG are getting eviscerated in the press. No question the people involved (once it's determined who they are) and the institutions need to be accountable, but you can support the girls who endured this without taking it out on people who have nothing to do with this mess.

Question: Is there any actual valid reason that a gymnastics doctor would be doing vaginal exams? I know he called them a "pelvic adjustment" and that incontinence (which I'm sure these girls were not experiencing) is a medical reason for this. But what on earth could the MSU coach/director who told a mom "It's a medical procedure" have been thinking? It's not just that he wasn't gloved and didn't have a witness in the room, it's that there was no reason whatsoever for him to be sticking his hands in there, right?

yes. PP is a great example of the epidemic of virtue signaling, those who believe that their holding a sign and protesting is meaningful, just because they are taking a stand.

Amazing that it takes 150 women coming forward to testify to take down one male predator. SMH

I had the same question. Other than incontinence, I didn't find anything online.

I read this, but I know nothing about the validity of the website or its author.

Perhaps that's what s/he was told about the procedure from Nassar, that it is a "medical procedure"? Do we know the circumstances behind the comment? Seems to be a question for a doctor, not a coach or athletic director, but again, the circumstances of the comment are unclear.

Oh sure, out of everything that's happened here, THAT'S what's wrong with our culture.

At least a dozen more need to follow... all of them who knew and refused to report to police for an investigation.

The judge said she remained openminded to the idea that this was an actual medical procedure, but that his attorneys never even tried to explain how it was legitimate. In other words, the lawyers knew it wasn't, so they didn't try to argue otherwise.

Rape is never a medical proceedure. They knew that. If MSU administration didn't know that, the institution should just shut down. That's beyond dumb.

Does anyone know the names of the people on the USA Board of gymnastics?
