Navy SEALs launch investigation after dog demonstration used Colin Kaepernick jersey to slam protests
Yahoo! Sports ^ | August 2, 2020 | Ryan Young

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.”

Kaepernick needs a major butt kicking. All this violence, looting, riots, burnings, deaths because of a hoax started by Colon Kaeperndickheadmofo where he stated systematic racism exists in the police without one shred of evidence. Derek Chauvin kills George Floyd, right away it’s blamed on racism. Based on WHAT? Right away the media promotes it as racist, the celebretards tag it as racism without as shred of evidence.

What if it goes to trial and we find out George Floyd molested Chauvins kid, would his death still be racist? Wouldn’t that be something. Who would be held accountable for all the riots, lootings, burnings, murder? But the left knows best don’t they, they can read minds so all the athletes gotta join and push this freakin’ hoax that cops are systemically racist even though they kill more whites. Yes, there’s nothing more a cop wants to do in this day and age is arrest someone black and kill them because life in prison as a cop is utopia, All the black lives cops save every year, incalculable, but now more must die because a bunch of tards say cops are “systemically racist” and must be eliminated.

Isn’t Colin K. himself sort of like a symbolic crash test dummy anyway? Not too much in the intelligence area. Bounced around on the football field and also from team to team unsigned. And his goofy hair protects him from some of the impact.

Still, it was just a jersey. Like the American flags they burn are just pieces of cloth./s

Meanwhile BLM communists and ANTIFA anarchists stage nightly demonstrations representing the takedown of the U.S.A. via U.S. flag burnings, attacks on Federal buildings, throwing frozen water bottles and explosives at cops ...

... and the media calls them “peaceful protesters.”

While I am not, absolutely 100% NOT a US Navy SEAL, I've seen some of their training up close, live, in person during my stay at NAB Coronado during my navy career. All I gotta say about this - if true - is a scene from one of my favorite accidenatal actors but real life totally correct, is my view exactly, so thank you Gunnery Sargent R.L. Ermey.

Patient: “And that’s why does Colin Kaepernik makes me sad I think”
Sarge: “That’s interesting… You know what makes me sad? YOU DO! Maybe we should chug on over to namby-pamby land where maybe we can find some self confidence for you ya jackwagon. Tissue?”

I still haven’t burned up our #7 49er jerseys. Just been lazy I guess. If I do it now, am I committing a crime?
