The National Sheriffs Association blasted the NFL for funding organizations that support defunding the police.
The police advocacy group sharply criticized the league after a Fox News Digital investigation revealed that several of the NFL's "Inspire Change" partners, which receive funding from the NFL, advocate for the abolition or defunding of law enforcement.
"I hope the NFL got its ROI [return on investment]: More crime, more legitimate criminals released, more community anger and more jerseys sold, eyeballs watching and paid seats filled at their games," Jonathan Thompson, executive director and CEO of the National Sheriffs Association, told Fox News in an email.
quote:
"Well done to the NFL, hopefully all the deputies and officers that protect their facilities and audiences that attend their games feel better about the NFL, especially since it is funding organizations that want to completely dissolve our country's principle of adherence to the rule of law," he added.
"Perhaps they could spend one night in a cruiser or a jail to see the horrendous effects of runaway crime," the CEO concluded. "Or they could look into the faces of the victims of crime who are white, black, brown, men, women, elderly, kids, poor, rich and every demographic in America."
OOF!

Unfortunately, the Sheriffs Association is pissing in the wind. The NFL is insulated by layers and layers of cash.

Cries about defund the police, while acknowledging they directly fund the police. Interesting strategy.

Imagine letting yourself be lectured by an entity that employs Antonio Brown and Tyreek Hill

Seems like a strange thing to take from this. Oh, well.

At least nurses have legit reasons to complain.

You’re right, cops have zero to complain about.

At least teachers have a legit reason to complain. Parents struggled to manage their own children during the pandemic day in and day out. Imagine managing 30 snot-nosed kids that aren't your own 5 days a week. Couldn't be me.

This is the correct answer.
How many times will you hear about how they have to work on "lesson plans" while on Xmas break?

Most all adults complain too much. So the answer is every profession. We just like to point at nurses, cops, teachers, etc because there’s a lot of them and (at least for nurses and teachers) they’re all over social media
But who the hell doesn’t complain about their job

Maybe the NFL doesn't support civil asset forfeiture. Would Jonathan Thompson care to comment on the National Sheriff's Association stance on this issue?
Also, just a quick reminder that the NFL is 31 owners. Mostly all billionaires. The NFL is not Roger Goodell. Goodell is the puppet for these owners. If the National Sheriff's Association wants to be upset at the NFL, call out the actual owners.
