The Miami Herald reported the local police union is behind the Broward County Sheriff’s Office and will not be doing any escorting either.President of the International Union of Police Associations, Jeffrey Bell said,“I respect their right to have freedom of speech. However, in certain organizations and certain jobs you give up that right of your freedom of speech temporary while you serve that job or while you play in an NFL game.”
