Ervin explained in her Facebook post that on September 19, "while in uniform, I made the conscious decision to not stand for the Star Spangled Banner because I feel like a hypocrite, singing about 'land of the free' when, I know that only applies to some Americans." Ervin said in the post that she was punished by Navy officials and that the "equipment I need to do my Naval job" was taken away.

Station her in Somalia, perhaps if she survives she’ll appreciate the freedoms America offers?

She should be put in the BRIG.
It’s the military. It’s not civilian life.

Good.
I hope that part of her Non-Judicial Punishment is scrubbing heads for about three months.

I’d have kicked her *ss out so hard that she’d have landed somewhere in lower slobovia.
The day the military is forced to keep this type of slime in - there WILL BE A REVOLT.
NOTE: It’s not because she’s a she, it’s not because she is black.
IT’S BECAUSE SHE IS SLIME AND DOES NOT BELONG ALONG SIDE PEOPLE OF HONOR.

Petty Officer 2nd class and she thinks not standing for the National Anthem is an option? How did she get through boot camp?
To: kevcol
She’s certainly not as free as Hillary Clinton. She has to live with the consequences of her actions.

She is a black female, belonging to a super privileged protected class. Whines about not being free.
She voluntarily joined a group that makes you much less free.
She made herself less free on purpose.

Dishonorable Discharge. I still know all the forms needed for processing, so I’m free if they Navy is too busy to process that!
