“Do you have a problem with some jamoke claiming valor awards or purple hearts? If not, you aren’t much different that this clown.”
I think it is a disgusting thing to do, and would merit a beat-down by those who did serve (without nanny-state interference); I don’t see adding another “protected class” with rules tailored to their gripes as a good thing.
Should married people in a bar be prohibited from posing as singles? The case could be made that it would benefit society if we stopped married people from BSing people to score...
Like I said, you don't get it. The fact that you equate the two activities shows just how much you don't get it. Is cheating on your spouse a resume enhancer in most places besides the Dems?
Can't beat the shit out of them, that's part of the problem.
Sorry pal, making that analogy shows just how clueless you are. The dirtbags claiming military honors when in fact they were not awarded them and many not even being in the military should not be a "protected class."
Without the millions who sacrificed (died and bled) for our freedom, you and I wouldn't be here enjoying it.
People who falsely claim to have earned these medals aren't just misrepresenting themselves, they are lying about having received this official endorsement.
How is this different from a fly-by-night "drug" company making false claims about FDA endorsements?
