Non-military guy here and I have to say I'm confused by the negative reactions toward the marines here. What did they do that was so bad? They didn't raise their voices, they didn't use profane language, they didn't invade his personal space in a threatening manner. This dude was in a public area and I thought they were quite civil.
Now I've seen a few videos with the over-the-top agro-bro marine types that shout and grab at the impostor, verbally abuse the guy, curse, get violent, etc. Those other vids can be way out of line. That didn't happen here.
What's the problem? How were these guys out of line? I was expecting much worse hearing the reactions. I thought they were fair, relatively composed, and did nothing at all to "embarrass" the marine corps.

They weren't out of line. It's a few of the twats that have never had the balls to serve that are pissy about the way they handled themselves. No offense of course. We don't look negatively at anyone who chooses not to serve. Actually we understand totally that the majority of people don't.

Traditionally, they are given to prove membership when challenged.

This is apparently some bullshite started after I got out. I do know that it's an actual coin. I don't know the reason for the coin or how one would actually get this coin.

Yep. Also, they are given out... My wife is a USN nurse and when the Blues were doing a show, one of them chipped a tooth or something like that and came into her clinic. All of the ones there (it was a weekend) got a Blue's coin.
OT, saw the Cole a couple of weeks ago at NOB Norfolk...

Weird that I never even saw one of these while I was in. Just really weird.

You have no idea how easy it is for most people to whip my arse. The only problem is that they have to reach me before I get the pistol out. I carry everywhere. I carry in the shower
