Not liking the law in North Carolina doesn't make it the NFL's responsibility to investigate and dole out punishments for crime. If you don't want the NFL to spend time and money protecting the shield then this whole domestic violence push should really piss you off because that is all it is about. The NFL is an entertainment industry and they should focus on that.
Why are people upset that the NFL doesn't punish people the law couldn't but will flock to movies with actors that are scumbags? People are more upset that hardy was allowed to play football after he was accused of a crime than they were that Hollywood honored a man who drugged and anally raped a 14 year old girl. This isn't about protecting women it is about feeding the mob.
