Posing as a veteran is NOT illegal
In America
[quote]In United States v. Alvarez the U.S. Supreme Court ruled on June 28, 2012, that the Stolen Valor Act was an unconstitutional abridgment of the freedom of speech under the First Amendment, striking down the law in a 6 to 3 decision.[/quote]
I love it when Australians claim that posing as a vet will get you jail time, as if Australian laws have jurisdiction outside their island. I think it's high time they learned that there is a world with different rules outside their little SJW bubble.
Disclaimer: I don't personally agree with posing as a vet, but I fully support the right of people to do so.
Edit: I made this post with the assumption that the poser wasn't going for government money etc etc

I do not see why people make such a big deal out of it. I used to be in the military and do not care. It is a job, what bothers me is how people glorify soldiers and make them out to be "heroes".

Nobody cares. If you do it, you're an asshole and deserve a good beating...not jail time, but a good beating.

-blam!-s those dirty surfers, I was so -blam!-ing pissed when the anti free health care bill fell through. -blam!-ing crime lords would of had to hang up the surfboard and get a job like the rest of the world, instead of throwing boomarangs all day and banning gta. -blam!-ing stinky surfers.

2 RepliesA lot of times, whenever I ask someone to stop or not to do something (online), I get the "I can do whatever I want, its a free country" response. ...I forgot my point here... Something about what you said about Australians thinking their laws apply everywhere... Screw it, this is just bump now. Bump.

5 RepliesThat is fµcking stupid. Don't care what the law says, my morales and common sense tell me that's fµcking stupid.

2 RepliesThank goodness, now I can dress up in my military uniform and tell homeless people about my service in the Antarctic war again.

7 RepliesThey want to act like one, fine I guess. But I do think if a real vet figures it out they should be allowed to beat the importers ass without any backlash from the law, within reason of course (no broken bones or worse I think would be a good limit).

3 RepliesEdited by Aria I am Ømega: 1/22/2015 3:03:40 AMAnd it shouldn't be... If a vet wants to beat their ass, so be it but there deserves to be a country where you can say and do what you want... We're losing those quickly

3 RepliesIn America if you impersonate a veteran AND receive benefits for it, it is illegal.

What the -blam!- did you just -blam!-ing say about me you little scrub? I'll have you know I graduated top of my class in FaZe Clan, and I've been involved in numerous secret quickscoping lobbies against Optic and I have over 300 confirmed 360 noscopes on Rust. I am trained in hitting clips and I'm the top quickscoper in FaZe Clan. You are nothing to me but just another squeaky fanboy. I will 420 blaze the -blam!- out of you with precision the likes of which has never been seen before on this Earth, mark my -blam!-ing hits. You think you can get away with saying that shit to me over Xbox Live? Think again you fedora wearing -blam!-. As we speak I am contacting the Anonymous Memesquad across every basement in the world and your IP is being DDoSed right now so you better prepare for the Darude - Sandstorm, maggot. The Sandstorm that wipes out the pathetic little thing you call your Internet. You're -blam!-ing dead, -blam!-. I can be anywhere, anytime, and I can trickshot you in over seven hundred ways and that's just with my Dank Intervention. Not only am I extensively trained in editing videos that my mum recorded when I yelled at her to get the camera which contain high ammounts of lens flare and various text samples, but I have access to the entire arsenal of my sponsors Mountain Dew and Doritos and I will use it to its full extent to wipe your miserable ass of the face of the web, you little shit. If only you could have known what unholy retribution your clever little hardscopes were about to bring down upon you, maybe you would have stopped bragging to your internet friends who you only like because if you block them on Facebook you are going to die. But you couldn't, you didn't, and now you're paying the price, you goddamn nooblord. I will shit Doritos all over you and you will drown in them. You're -blam!-ing dead, scrublord.

5 RepliesMight not get jail time..but you sure as hell might get your ass beat by a real vet like me

3 RepliesLegally you can put on a uniform and tell people you're a vet, but if you profit from it you can be brought up on fraud charges.

Bump this will probably get me banned thrice within 24 hours for bullshit but I don't care
