Not seeing how the government should to decide who is good enough or morally qualified to own a company nor be told how to run said company as long as following the law.

But it’s not a regular company. If it were he would’ve been ousted decades ago. He is protected by congressional antitrust rules. It’s absurd that the only way to get rid of an owner is a 2/3 vote of owners. The commissioner of the league said he can’t do anything about it.
And how are you supposed to indict him when he’s abusing power to compromise the investigation? The nfl is complicit in a top secret investigation where they’re not only hiding info, they’re using that privileged info to blackmail and threaten witnesses.
My main interest in this is I think it’s absurd that taxpayers who pump millions into a team and have an obvious entertainment interest in a city having a good team have zero stake in deciding who owns the team that represents them. It shouldn’t be this hard to get rid of an owner and snyder is making a mockery of it by showing at an extreme level how much he can get away with. I think bad owners should be WAY easier to get rid of. Look at how bad it has to get and he STILL might get away with it.
It’s not like we’re talking about a bad actor. We’re talking about one of the worst actors imaginable who has abused his power while capitalizing off of billions in public money. If not for this, then who holds him accountable? To date, the answer is nobody.
