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.

The hatred of America that is being promoted by the media is spreading rapidly.
It has now infected the U.S. Navy.

Chuck this 2nd class into Leavenworth!
The constitution doesn’t apply to military personnel.
The UCMJ does while serving.
JMHO.

” 15 minutes of fame.”
The media will make sure it’s much longer than that... She’ll be the newest hero of the left and the race pimps.

She should. She’s bound to “pledge allegiance” to this country by her job, and if she won’t do that...well, she’s a traitor and thus totally unfit for the job. She should have lost it.
I’m sick of all this Ameriphobia. At least it’s finally showing itself in truth. Soon all libs will show their true colors (red) by joining in this crap.
Get the hell out if you despise it so much.

If there’s one place where loyalty is not optional, it’s the military. Boot her out with undesirable discharge. I hear ISIS is recruiting.
