I disagree. I have a real problem with someone falsely claiming to be a veteran or grossly embellishing their service record for their own.personal advantage or gain.

 

Too many brave and honorable people have sacrificed so much to allow some douchebags to falsely identify themselves as such without performing the service to the country nor the personal sacrifice.

People claiming war hero status shouldn't be a crime no matter how disgusting it is

 

Unless they're using such a false claim for some sort of material gain.

 

 

Which is already illegal - it's called "fraud". Merely saying "I have a Bronze Star." Not fraud. Saying "I have a Bronze Star" and getting an extra 20% off the early bird special at Denny's because of it: Fraud.

And I have a real problem with arrogant !@#$s believing that what THEY have a problem with should be illegal simply because they have a problem with it, and then proceed to justify their self-righteous blather with "It's for the troops!"

 

But I don't think there should be a law against that, either.

There's no way there should be a law against it, but I think they should have to go to a bar that Navy Seals hang out and explain their reasoning.

 

Nah. Navy mess cooks. SEALs are too disciplined.

And I have a problem with ignorant self absorbed pricks. I am more pro military than 95% of this board.

 

Reread what I said. In no way did I make any type of all encompassing blanket statement how all these morons who claim false service are criminals. Douchebags yes criminals probably not. But I very clearly said anyone who lies for their own gain or advantage should be held accountable for their false claims.

You tell me what you think it means ? I'm not sure how you're confused

 

 

By inference, you are part of the 4-5% so 9 should be supporting you and your efforts.

It was in reaction to a real dumb statement, what he said was so stupid it's all I could come up with Chef, sorry

 

So when someone says they're pro military you don't know what they mean by that?

When they say they are MORE pro military than me or anyone, let alone 95%of everyone, can't I ask WTF they are talking about?

 

Are you more pro military than me? Can you explain why?

This is the worst argument ever I feel dumber for having read your words and trying to understand

Your logic.

See!

 

Should all vets get free health care for life?

If you feel "dumber," then society is a better place now, because you need to feel how you are. Dumb people, like you, need to understand they are inferior.
