Sucks to be a security guard, cause you don’t know what you’re in for, but you basically are an assailant, even though you’re working. No private enterprise can really give you the right to force someone.

Not a job I’d want to do, but not an authority I’d (I’ve) ever acknowledge either.

Part of the reason I don’t go to more games than I do is jerks like this. He should have been thrown out. I’m glad the judge affirmed NFL’s right to enforce fan code conduct. If your going to act like a moron stay home. It’s painful enough watching the Bengals without having to deal with these type of people.

Anyone who would disagree with this has never been to a Chicago Bears game.

These security guys will feel their oats now! Look out for a power struggle between the paying fan and the under paid guard.

Can’t believe I’m defending the Browns, but why pick on the Dawg Pound? It wasn’t one of their fans. And much as I despise police/security brutality … what should they do if an obnoxious fan refuses to leave? Is a cattle prod out of the question?

“in some cities (though rarely enforced, if ever) one can be arrested for “noise pollution” if they cuss in public.”

In Columbus, Ohio, it is illegal for stores to sell corn flakes on Sunday.

In Burlingame, California, it is illegal to spit, except on baseball diamonds.

In Waynesboro, Virginia, it is illegal for a woman to drive a car up Main Street unless her husband is walking in front of the car waving a red flag.

So what was your point?

The judge was right to say the first amendment does not cover his screaming obscenities. The Supreme Court declared about 50 years ago that the first amendment doesn’t apply to profanities. in some cities (though rarely enforced, if ever) one can be arrested for “noise pollution” if they cuss in public.

If the stadiums want to practice getting their security guards up to speed, they should send them to Baltimore or Philly for practice- the two cities with the highest drunken-moron-loudmouth ratio.

What everyone seems to be forgetting here is the fact that the NFL does not own the stadiums.

So Charger fan gets offended by the finger and asks security to remove Chief fan who in turn bites back. Tough Crowd.

Kinda funny that the picture you use is of the 3 fat guys who sit in the “new” neutered dog pound in cleveland. These are the 3 “loyal” fans who gladly welcomed Oucho Stinco with open arms when he lept into Cleveland’s stands after scoring a touchdown against them. The new dog pound is so weak, a fan code of conduct needs to be issued to Browns fans NOT to root for the visiting team.

bleedgreen: no, they can ask him to leave and, if he doesn’t, call the police. They would stand there while security asked the fan again to leave, and if he didn’t, the police could remove him for trespassing.

Only the police can forcibly do anything to anyone in America. Private security is NEVER the police.

I’m amazed that adult human beings can’t
behave and treat each other with respect. Having
said that, I don’t blame the security guys for giving him the business. Behave like a goon, get treated like a goon.

So uh… they can ask him to leave but if he refuses they can’t do anything about it? C’mon now.
