Re: NFL doesn't want off duty cops carrying

texanjoker wrote:Here we go again with the comparison :smash: . Carrying a gun "off duty" isn't a right. It comes with the job of a LEO. There are many agencies that require their leo's to carry off duty. One also needs to be carrying when they are on call as you must respond directly to the call out. Most agencies also state one cannot carry while intoxicated.

Here is the reality check that some won't like. :rules: LEO's face threats that a CHL holder doesn't face. CHL holders don't get assaulted, murdered, or verbally accosted while off duty by some person(s) because of an on duty enforcement action taken by the LEO. Have this happen ifo your family and let me know how it feels. I left an entire state to get away from some of that.

LEO's and CHL's face the same normal risks that something "may" happen, ie the normal assault, robbery, murder, ect as we all go about our daily life hence the reason for a CHL and off duty carry. The NFL should allow any legally authorized person to carry. (chl/leo/)

It is a sad day the NFL did this. The leo's in the areas of the stadiums need to quit signing up for the overtime and see how the NFL likes not having enough LEO's to staff their games as those are generally overtime assignments :smilelol5:
Lots of regular old folks, citizens, face retaliation for things they do too like report criminals, road ragers, etc. Yes, LEO's face hazards because of their profession. They made the decision to be LEOs and face the risks of their job.

The excuse that LEOs can carry anywhere anytime because of their job as opposed to any citizen is a tired argument. In the end, citizens should be able to carry anywhere any LEO can carry.

The second amendment says so.
