Kaitlyn Collins is a former National Football League cheerleader for the Green Bay Packers.
On Monday, their rival team the “Chicago Bears Fan” Facebook page, which has more than 80,000 likes, uploaded a photo of Caitlyn in her cheerleading days and wrote: “Like if You Agree The Packers Have The Worst Cheerleaders In The NFL!” underneath it.
The old photo of a fresh-faced, younger Kaitlyn was posted to the Facebook page.
The post has been liked more than 3,400 times. It has received more than 1,400 comments, many of them denigrating Kaitlyn’s looks and making fun of her in crude language.
Since, Facebook fans have lashed back against the cruel post, attacking the poster and demanding it to be taken down.
The change in attitude? This video Kaitlyn posted online on Wednesday.
She writes, “What about the people who don’t have that [support] at home? What will happen when something like that happens to them?”
“STOP!!! Cyber-bullying and bullying in any form!!!” she writes.
Collins also writes that she has asked Facebook to take the post down, but that the company “has found it does not qualify as bullying under their standards.”
