    The fake one was an actual reenactment of an actual stolen valor video. The one they are making fun of was this dude in a mall wearing that uniform with his 9 neck rolls coming over the collar.

    I'm an army veteran and I would completely feel the same way. I wanted to say that I do wear my uniform when I do funeral details. I am a part of the veterans association from Apache nation. I'm proud to continue to wearing the uniform. But sad to wear it when a fallen comrad goes home

    The real service person should have called the police instead of engaging with these idiots. It is a crime offence to wear a full miiitary uniform if you are not active duty and you are using the uniform to make a profit. Ask the 14 year old child what a cover is. And the 3rd guy, ask him if he's hiding a semi truck under his shirt. His pants leg is ripped and he has something on the front of his shirt and is not wearing boots. His American flag is on incorrectly if he had been deployed.

    The truth is that people should not wear institutional uniforms and pretend to be the military from any country. It is disrespect and abuse. It is my opinion with all due respect.

      Wearing BDUs with no service insignia, ribbons, or making representations of being in, or having been in the military is OK. BDUs are sold to civilians through multiple outlets. It's legal to own and wear them. During hunting season, lots of folks wear BDUs, particularly woodland pattern.

      Stolen Valor under the Supreme Court Decision only applies if you are making a financial gain from wearing a uniform.
      Other than that it's a Constitutional Right and Free speech and expression.
      Vets Do not like it because they strive to stay relevant and they violate their own Valor and UCMJ by thinking they are self entitled.
      Truth is they work under the public not over them.
      our oath protects these people.
      Further , alot of these people are very noticably mentally ill. It's illegal to exploit them and very sueable .
      Personally any vet that confronts people is stupid and weak minded to begin with.

    your ignorant for stating a veteran cannot use a uniform 🥋 ever again. this is not a case of stolen valor if you have earned the valor. the law states that if you are using the image or idea of earning a form of valor to gain a financial profit is illegal only if you have NOT Earned THAT VALOR.

    Stolen valor is so despicable. I have not served but I have friends that gave all and lost people in action... so I totally understand and I call mofo's out on this

      Make a two thousand calorie diet and run at least 4 miles on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. Weight train on Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday. Do not eat anything more than two calories a day. You’ll lose weight.

    Im not in the military but I have huge respect to the veterans and those who served in the British and American military. As a runner I did my second virtual running challenge called for the fallen where I had to run 11k for a month, so after 13 weeks of running and 3 park runs I did it in 2 days and I got my ebib and the money I paid for the challenge goes to the veterans who needs help from PTSD and other mental health issues.
    For those who are veterans and in the military god bless you guys and much love from the UK 🇬🇧 ❤

    I really don't get why people do this what's so special about being a soldier most of my military service was boring to say the least so I really don't get it. Also the money some of them must spend must run into thousands buying medals and patches and all that you would need a lot of veterans discount to get your money back.

  • @dimbulb23
    @dimbulb23 10 месяцев назад

    This Stolen Valor crap rubs me the wrong way. 1. You can't steal someone's valor.... valor is a quality and potential that some have and some don't. It's like a person has intelligence and others not so much. In neither case can someone steal that part of you character from you? Nor can you borrow it or have it given to you. 2. Yes, it's sad that some folks have nothing of their own to feel proud of, I pity them. If wearing a uniform wrong, makes them feel better. It doesn't bother me and frankly I don't see why it should bother anyone. If you think that kid wearing a uniform dishonors some hero that you know... think about it, how did that change that hero's deeds, sacrifices, honor? Not that it matters but yes I'm a vet. I wasn't a hero. I volunteered. I did my duty. I got paid. I'd rather you don't thank me. Save it for those who were wounded in body and/or mind. Honor the heros and save a pinch of good will for those who have nothing to be proud of.

    • @josephkurtz2410

      Not sure about the US but in Australia if someone signs up to serve their country and d wear the uniform, regardless if they have deployed and or seen combat, they are still considered veterans. My uncle was Australian Navy and did 8 years, never saw combat and is considered a vet here.
