Kazaandu wrote I am actually in the military (pm me if you would like proof) and seeing people who do it really disgust me and pretty much all of my friends. It's like to claim that you are something that you didn't put in the time, blood, sweat, and tears into just really grinds my gears.

I'll never understand why people would do something so stupid /:

People that are impersonating being in the armed forces, whether they have badges they got from a family member or friend and are lying or they have a full on uniform they got and are lying.

From watching videos and especially making this topic, I think I fully understand what this whole thing is about and how twisted it actually is.

Think about it, at the very least, they are disrespecting people who've died for this country. It's just disgusting and humiliating,

And yet I'll never know why there is a monkey-see monkey-do affect for something like this.

Who would even dare to think that this would be a good idea doing???
