As the discourse rolls on regarding former 49ers quarterback Colin Kaepernicks decision to take a knee during the national anthemand the movement his protest ignitedsupport for the blacklisted athlete-cum-activist is sprouting up across the country.
Yesterday afternoon, on Twitter, some of that support came from U.S. Army Infantry Officer and U.S. Military Academy at West Point alumnus, Spenser Rapone.
Rapone posts under the handle @punkproletarian and is a member of the Democratic Socialists of America.
Under the hashtag #VeteransForKaepernick, he tweeted an image of himself raising the left clenched-fist of solidarity, support and resistance as well as the message, Communism Will Win taped inside of his West Point uniform cap. Also visible in the photograph is Rapones Combat Infantryman Badgemeaning he has fought in active ground combat.
Rapone followed up his initial post with retweeted images of other #VeteransForKaepernick in their combat uniforms.
LawNewz verified the legitimacy of the photograph with Rapone himself. He is currently in the field until Friday and unable to answer detailed questions, but a Medium post authored by the Infantry Officer details some of his views. He wrote, following the murder of socialist Heather Heyer during the Charlottesville neo-Nazi rallies:
The toppling of the Confederate Soldiers Memorial in Durham, North Carolina has sounded the death knell for any and all displays of Confederate aggrandizement in the United States as well as abroad. Yet, the shadow of the Confederacy and its efforts to preserve slavery is not limited to the southern United States.

U = US

Supporting communism is treason and seditious. Court marshall and execute him
As a side note, "OFFICERS" do not wear strips on their cadet uniforms.........Nor are Cadets deemed officers until graduation from the academy........
This little asshole SJW and most likely homosexual needs to be removed from the military ASAP before he turns over secrets and our men wind up being killed.
Care to elaborate on how he is a fake?
TIA
The Preferred way. Tie his stomach to a fully loaded cannon and fire the cannon.
To do what is right for some else, even though you know it may not go well for you, that is the character trait we are missing in the Air Force today. I believe integrity has gone to the waste side at USAFA

According to a recently retired L.I.F.E.R. dominionist cadre member at the AFA, it was the local news paper's fault... for reporting the culture of rape with the AFA's purview.
I think SSGT Enos hit the "culture" on the head.
And now...

More "culture" ahead.
How does someone like this get into West Point?
Read my post 80 and 92.
It’s not fake.
Evidently, this asshat is prior enlisted? Combat Action Ribbon, Jump Wings and Air Crew Wings. National Defense Ribbon. If he is a fake, how and why is he even on the base?
Sorry 80 and 97
Good Day!
He looks like an Obama Pajama Boy......
[He would be a clear security risk, for secrets, and for sabotage.]
I was gonna say - he’s probably a threat to National Security.
I'm not going to dispute you then. If he indeed graduated in 2016 then the pictures were taken while he was at the academy. And if he's currently in the military, I'm surprised he hasn't been brought up on charges.......
