So because Americans put their armed forces on an unnecessarily high pedestal, anyone wearing clothes of the military while not being part of it should be prosecuted?
He may have not said anything, but it's no fault of his that ignorant people didn't ask questions or use common sense before jumping the gun on "muh patriotism".
All the guy did was be a bit of an asshole.
Nothing more.
If you want to jail people for being assholes...
Completely irrelevant and missing the entire point. The justice system is supposed to protect those "idiots" who fall for this stuff. Obviously you have responsibility not to fall for things like fake uniforms, but when someone is caught out smarting "dumb patriotic Americans" you don't give them a pat on the back and say "good job just don't do it again". I'm not saying jail him for 60 years here, I'm just saying it's a punishable offense and he should be fined at the least.
I don't care about you guys mocking American Patriotism, I think it's over the top as well. Especially seeing how people fell for this trick. But don't connect stabs at military respect with allowing con men to get away.
No one's saying he should get a pat on the back, we're saying he shouldn't be punished.
Alright remove the uniform.
If someone tricked you out of your money would you be angry?
Depends on the situation. I wouldn't give money or pay for a soldier's meal just because they are wearing a uniform. They aren't entitled to respect for wearing a uniform. You'd be essentially judging a book by it's cover and get cases like this where people gave money to a guy free loading. Would as many people pay for people who weren't in the military? Probably not. If people are pissed because they bought a guy a 10-$20 meal under the wrong pretense they probably aren't as courteous as they put on. Now if I pay for a service or thing and get jipped/tricked that's another story. If I go to the easter bunny to buy a chocolate egg and it's marketed as such and buy one, only to find out it's a wrapped turd laced with ebola, I'd be a little pissed. But that's because I expected something in exchange for money and was lied to. It wasn't just a good deed. Giving money to homeless people I don't expect anything except maybe a thank you. Everyone crying is just an indian giver.

That's not what stealing means.
Con = stealing
From the OP he didn't ask for the food or actively try to con them. He simply wore clothes that made people feel blindy obligated to buy him stuff.

Wearing a military uniform in public is a felony? I know impersonating a police officer is, but I don't see the harm in dressing as a military member.
Dick move, absolutely. But I don't think it needs to be a felony.
Impersonating an officer in uniform is worse. But its only illegal if you are wearing insignias or trying to use that status to get on a base or something like that.
In this case, he got free food.
Better lock him up for getting free food under false pretenses. We'd better lock up all those "homeless" and "disabled" people who beg for money, then hop into their car at the end of the day and drive home, too.
You just sound negative all the time.
Because this is stupid shit to get arrested for. He didn't infringe upon anyone's rights or well-being. He didn't steal anything. He didn't hurt anyone. I don't see why it's a problem.
So you would be ok with someone ripping you off for free food when they didn't need the money?
You thought you did a good deed, and it turns out that it was a ruse? This is like being a con man.
Except the people who bought him food did it under their own power, presumably with no pressure from faux-military dude. If having someone buy you a cheeseburger without you saying anything to them is a con...I don't even know...
He deserved being arrested, he was impersonating a serviceman so people would pay for his food. You know how con men like to work, right? Trapping people and getting them to pay for something themselves. Doesn't matter if they paid its still a con.
I think if someone's dumb enough to just to buy someone stuff because of their clothes or for blind respect they lose the right to complain. "A fool and money soon part"

I could tell it was fake just from the bad acting. They just didn't seem sincere enough. Didn't think the director lied to them though, what a douche.

I have not watched all of them, or every episode of any of the shows. I have seen a lot of them, mostly out of order. I really enjoyed Fusion Reborn though, I think that was the name of it. The one with Janemba
Well watch Kai if you want to get as close to canon as possible since it cuts out all the filler.
The only movies that are canon are Bardock: Father of Goku, History of Trunks, that one special with Vegetas brother Tarble, and the Battle of Gods movies.
For the movie about Bardock that might not be canon. Recently there was a comic about Bardock that takes place during that time period so it contradicts the movie. Which means that comic is now canon and the movie isn't.
The new comic doesn't contradict OG Bardock movie. Before we just thought he died in Frieza's blast where as now we learn it teleported him to the past and he was the OG super saiyan. It simply added on to it as opposed to rewriting the story.

The fuk is that.
Best DBZ antagonist.
He's kind of like a chaotic neutral Frieza.
Would Broly also be a chaotic neutral Frieza?
Chaotic neutral? No, not at all.
He's not even like Freiza. Freiza was a tyrannical space dictator, Broly was a seething mass of rage that only wanted to kill Goku.
...And then the rest of the universe. He did say that he chose Goku to be the first of his victims, implying he was going to kill everyone else too.
Broly had so little character that the only thing I could remember him even doing was screaming kakarot.
Still a seething mass of mindless rage regardless.
His dialogue slowly shrunk each movie. He could actually form coherent sentences the first movie. The second movie he sounds like Hulk with further down syndrome saying "Kakakarrot cake" and "I'll kill you". The third movie he just moans everytime his mouth opens.

In other news, any reason Halo 4's Prologue and Epilogue scenes look exactly as they did on Xbox 360?
Why would they look different?
They weren't 1080p 60fps on the 360.

Well since it's a choice they could always come to one of my Seminars: "Pain in The Ass, How Life as A Homosexual Hurts You" and "I was Gay Like You Once, Then I Stuck It In A Vagina". Open Tuesday's and Thursday's at my local church here in Indiana. Cost is $42.0 or $69 for couples.

343i only puts out a halo game every 3 years, so I don't see how it would feel like DLC. They could keep the core gameplay the same while adding more modes and features onto existing modes. Get more vehicles, forge pieces, forge capabilities, campaign theater, multi person theater, programmable AI, firefight, create a new gamemode, add map elements, etc. Adding ADS and sprint isn't innovation or anything unique and simply takes away from the uniqueness Halo had. Case of "keeping up with the Joneses". Everyone compares Halo to other shooters and think it needs what they have like they should be the same. "Hur Halo's too slow it needs sprint to cope my ADHD for clicking the L-stick every 5 seconds for a 15% boost like every other shooter", "The zoom sucks, modern shooters all have the same zoom so should Halo", "I hate missing jumps I need the ability to grab ledges like other games" Remember when Halo brought new things to the table for console shooters like vehicle boarding, forge, and theater? Pepperidge farms remembers.

My friend said putting your own sperm in your ear repairs brain tissue and sperm cells reinforce brain cells, making you smarter. I can't find any articles on the web, so is there any truth to this? I've been doing it for around a week now and the only difference I noticed is I'm hard of hearing.

It irrates me 343 can make H2A multiplayer perfect then want to make Halo 5 how it is.
AKA You want 343i to make a Halo 2 clone.
Halo 2 Anniversary MP is literally a Halo 2 clone minus the glitches.
This goddamn community is ridiculous. Halo 5's a fucking Arena game that expands upon Halo's MP, but suddenly that's too far (farther than Halo 4 apparently...), especially with the game being over a year out from launch.
Nope, I just don't blindly accept any change as holy and wonderful.
H2A added interactive pieces on the maps and I'm not bothered. It was a good change. Sprint, ADS like every other game now a days has (inb4 it's the same zoom but different), 1 hit kill ground pound, etc just aren't good.
But you do blindly adhere to what is tried and true, stagnating progress.
Additionally, you also imply that I am treating the new Halo 5 abilities as holy. Instead, I do not mind them, and think they can work well. However, I do agree with a lot of criticism regarding ground pound.
Also, if you are complaining about an aesthetic animation that has absolutely no effect on gameplay, I pity your lack of judgmental depth.
Well because it worked. You don't see chess or football radically changing every year to keep people interested. They all have there niches, which Halo had till it started losing its identity. Clamber removes trick jumps (something popular with Halo), had a unique zoom but now it has the generic aim down sight, ground pound is a one hit kill, and medals for literally everything. It is better than Halo 4 though.

It's being added in December.
Is there a date yet or just "December"?
Oh gosh... December 12th I think they said?
Good enough for me. I'm having a blast in Halo CE anyways. No one knows what they're doing, they all start with a pistol but never use it...
I noticed no one ever grabs the power ups either
