I disagree. What those Marines did was disrespectful.

Such bullshite. I respect the armed forces for all they do, but there is a time and place for everything. And at a funeral is not one of them. Being in the military does not give one a "get out of jail free card" for everything


Thank you.

I am all about calling out guys who misrepresent but you also have to be aware that some of these guys are straight up mentally disabled. I saw a guy wearing parts of a uniform and it was apparent to anyone who looked that he wasn't a soldier no matter what he said. Nothing to be gained by piling on guys like that.

Didn't the courts rule that it is legal to wear a uniform even if you weren't in the military?

Ask him why he called out this douche, but he wore shorts to a funeral...

Imagine a real Sgt Major telling someone that he's an "officer". That would be like an Auburn or LSU going around yelling "roll tide".

And as for PT, the only people I've ever known of who love PT more than 1st Sgts are Sgt Majors.

I'm always confused by these videos because I don't see how the marines knew to go call that guy out, they obviously weren't AT the funeral...so do they just get a call from someone or like are they just patrolling situations that people fake being military?

I believe if you lead people to believe you did things you clearly did not, it is a crime...HOWEVER, wearing a uniform is as easy as buying one...

To be honest, my first thought was that the guy had a mental condition. These videos posted by soldiers usually just show that the soldiers have serious anger issues.

To be fair, they weren't at the funeral...they were in the parking lot. And actually moved the conversation away at one point.

I want to say that there isn't a time for that, but people who dress up and pretend/claim to be something they're not are awful people, especially when they're claiming to be in the armed forces, and deserve whatever ridicule or bullshite they receive whether it be at a funeral or not.

He's your typical just graduated USMC basic training go get a few douchey USMC tattoo's wanna be operator latino kid. Basically, we weren't surprised to see him harass someone who's clearly not all there.

Shouldn't they be in their military attire? Or are they just crashing someone's funeral?


their behavior is pointless, but it isn't like they were up in the church doing it. I can see it aggravating someone that has served that someone is douching up the uniform.

Is the guy just a scammer or does he have mental issues?

If he is honestly messed up in the head, he should get a free pass. I understand real soldiers reactions to it, but it's not like the guy can help it.

If he is just a scammer though, do whatever you want to him.
