Watched at kid in full BDU get his patches ripped off last nite

[Big A]

Ive never understood that shit. If you want the attaboy's that come with the job, go get the job and get them for real. They mean nothing if they arent deserved. I had a roomate that would claim shit, like a degree, that he didnt have.

That's what I was going to post, I don't get stolen valor at all.

After he walked back to his table, someone asked what that was all about, and the kid said he did it because he wouldnt show him his military ID. Our waitress was a bit shaken by it, and went over to ask the other guy what the deal was. Apparently he saw that his patches didnt seem right when he walked in, so he asked, and then took them when he found the kid wasnt military.

Sounds like a good way to get arrested.

I always thank anyone for serving I see in Uniform or wearing a hat when I am out or traveling. Occasionally I'll get a bewildered look- those must be the posers.

You think a cop is going to arrest a soldier/veteran who takes unearned patches and insignias from a fake wannabe solider? NFW.

Maybe not in Texas, but I wouldn't put it past them in yankee land or california

Which one is doing something illegal and which one isn't?

This kid was too scared of the real deal he was trying to act like that he didnt do shit. He didnt get up, raise his voice, call the police, nothing.

We were surprised he didnt just leave right afterwards. It must have been hugely embarrassing.

I would hope so, vigilante justice is way more dangerous than a kid wearing a uniform. You can't go assaulting someone just because you feel justified in doing so.

actually, it was pretty uneventful. We counldnt see much, but you could hear the velcro.

I think it's highly offensive.
There's just so much military jargon you can spot a phoney in about 30 seconds.
You just can't fake the funk.

I wear a Los Angeles PD Academy T shirt sometimes to work out in. Jesus I hope no one thinks I have anything to do with that group of raging dog dicks.

That's no lie... I wound up playing golf a few months ago with a Ranger-turned-contractor and we spent the entire round of 18 talking of our military history, etc.

There's so much slang that nobody would get even in a 30sec convo if they hadn't served.

Do you stare at the black people menacingly? Do you see 2 hispanic women and see a huge black dude? Do you wanna shoot em?

If you said yes to any of these three, you are allowed to wear the shirt.
