And just like the Jan 6ers, in a place with one of the highest concentration of cameras, film, tape, live uploads - on the front pages of even the West Bumblefark Gazette - in the world. He was in a unit, others know what he did and what he didn't.
He's in for a "World of Shit".

(183,014 posts)Years ago there were all these videos of people getting busted posing as military when they werent. Mostly right wing people I know on Facebook. There were lots of these videos. I couldnt believe that THAT many people were trying to pull this off. Confrontations at airports and just in the street. Maybe when I was in the Army I might be able to tell something about the uniform was wrong but I really cant imagine paying that much attention to someone. I never could tell if these videos were just staged or not.
