Former NBA star Shaquille O'Neal can now add "Florida sheriff’s deputy" to his resume.

The Broward County Sheriff’s Office announced Friday that O’Neal now works as an auxiliary deputy for the department. Details about his duties were not released.

“Basketball legend @SHAQ goes by many nicknames, and now added to that list is Deputy Shaq. The big man now works as an auxiliary deputy with the #BSO,” the agency said in a tweet. “Sheriff Tony sat down with Shaq and the two talked about the different ways law enforcement works to keep communities safe.”

Color me disappointed.

Shaquille has always presented himself well as a TV basketball analyst and now he has the... the, frankly the stupidity to go get mixed up with Sheriff Israel and his bumbling crew of enablers? (Being polite here)

Bad move, Shaquille. You just alienated a lot of people.

Maybe he can take Israel’s job. The sooner the better.

I’ve always had the impression that Shaq is fairly conservative.

I’ve never heard those things, but I surely will look into them. I’ve looked into the Muslim thing before, but didn’t find anything definitive, only rumors. Seems like a no-nonsense “law and order” guy, but again I’ll check.

Well hey, that's good news. Shows how much I know... I'll have to retract my previous remarks, and thanks for helping me out.

What do we know about the new Sheriff? Maybe Shaquille is part of the rehabilitation.

A slightly related comment...

Many people are not aware that there is already a federal law in place that allows law enforcement officers to carry concealed across state and local jurisdictions. If one can obtain LEO status (serve warrants and make arrests is the normal test), then subject to a few restrictions, may carry concealed across the US.
