U.S. Navy sailor is under investigation for refusing to stand during the national anthem.
Intelligence Specialist 2nd Class Janaye Ervin, a reservist stationed at Pearl Harbor, posted on Facebook about why she's following in the footsteps of Colin Kaepernick and others who have demonstrated against police brutality during the anthem.
"I feel like a hypocrite singing about the 'land of the free' when I know that only applies to some Americans," she wrote. "I will gladly stand again, when ALL AMERICANS are afforded the same freedom."
Ervin says she lost her security clearance and was threatened with jail by the Navy in response to her actions.

SECDEF just published a memo to all service members about using discretion in their political speech, especially during the election season. Curious to see whether it apples to everyone or not.
When you're wearing that uniform, you will honor the country that gives you that opportunity, bitch.
She earned the black mark and perhaps it will educate her but probably not.
The pervasive liberal education agenda and distortion of American & World history sends these kids on a collision course with reality. Many never develop an understanding of how truly special America is as a Nation nor value the opportunities they have been given. They don’t even realize they have been indoctrinated for the benefit of the puppeteers.
I knew it was going to be a female. Just knew it.
That it is being spread by the media is accurate. Every goofball who kneels or refuses to stand is reported on by the media, instead of treating it like it is, that they are clowns grasping for noteriety. If the news would leave it alone, it would go away on its own.
‘I am guessing keelhauling is no longer in vogue?”...Nah. Not Since Rocks and Shoals in 1862..gone are the fun times...

Brig time does not count against your enlistment.
Courtmarshall. Now.
That’s fine... let her spend her entire enlistment time in there.
“..I see a lot of people wanting severe punishment for this sailor.
Just offer her an “other than honorable” discharge, and get rid of her. She’s no longer fit to wear the uniform, and she certainly can’t be trusted in an intelligence unit.
She’s not worth the effort to waste time on a bad-conduct or dishonorable discharge. ..”
Most likely CO’s MAst. no loss in rank, some extra duty. Not eligible for reenlistment. sadly that’s all she’ll get.
Breaking rocks in the hot sun.
Fundamentally transforming America with minority riots, 3rd World Immigration, and 3rd World opinions.
A lot join because they want free college or job training and because they can't find a job anywhere else.
180 days,TDY to Saudi Arabia!
Well, kiss your Intelligence MOS goodbye. Say hello to cleaning pots & pans!
Because no other job provides training in personal hygiene? ;>)
Soon to be known as an ex-sailor.
That makes sense
That’s a pertinent point in all of these instances.
The hatred for this country has gone up under Zerobama. It’ll take an America-loving patriot like Donald Trump to get things turned back around.
And for once I’d like to see someone demand an answer from the idiots who think they’re taking some kind of a stand: Can you name one country that’s better that the U.S.A.? Then send them there and revoke their citizenship.
