Navy SEALs launch investigation after dog demonstration used Colin Kaepernick jersey to slam protests

The U.S. Navy SEALs are investigating after video surfaced from a fundraiser last year in Florida that showed a K-9 demonstration using a “Colin Kaepernick stand-in.”

The video — which was posted last January, but went viral this weekend — shows what appear to be Navy SEAL dogs attacking a man wearing a Colin Kaepernick jersey during a demonstration.

A second video shows the dogs taking the man in the Kaepernick jersey down. Finally, after the dogs are pulled off, the man in the jerseys said, “Oh man, I will stand.”

Laughter ensued from the crowd, clearly taking his statement as a joke regarding Kaepernick’s protests during the national anthem.

...

The Navy SEALs announced on Sunday that they have launched a full investigation into the incident, which took place at the national Navy SEAL Museum near Fort Pierce, Florida.

After condemning the incident, the organization said it believes that none of the people participating were active duty Navy personnel.

“We became aware today of a video of a Navy SEAL Museum event posted last year with a military working dog demonstration,” the SEALs said in a statement. “In the demonstration, the target is wearing a Colin Kaepernick jersey. The inherent message of this video is completely inconsistent with the values and ethos of Naval Special Warfare and the U.S. Navy.

“We are investigating the matter fully, and initial indications are that there were no active duty Navy personnel or equipment involved with this independent organization’s event.”

Poor doggie. Now for a hometown plug, well home county plug. If you are anywhere in the vicinity of the museum which is about 50 miles north of WPB visit!!! It is worth the trip.

As I see it, this was “One bitch taking down a commie bitch”. What is wrong with that?

Is the Navy still run by the Obama pansies (i.e. The Queens Navy), or have they gotten their balls back on?

What really pisses me off is that they didn’t actually use kapernuts for the demo and had starved the dogs for a few days before the demo...
