And like I said before, the Air Force gets the best pay and benefits overall, Marines get the least.
The pay scale is the same, as Noelle said before.

I'm also interested in seeing an article on the situation. Surely it hit local news or something.

Stealing credit for something you didn't do.
What credit, though? I could understand wearing a Purple Heart or other award/medal, but just wearing a uniform isn't credit of anything.

I'd give it a solid 7/10. Not the best, but what they have is reliable.

It is, but it's not

The Stolen Valor Act of 2013 make it a crime for a person to fraudulently claim having received any of a series of particular military decorations WITH the intention of obtaining money, property, or other tangible benefit from convincing someone that he or she rightfully did receive that award
But that's about medals and commendations. Not wearing the uniform.

I never said it wasn't a shitty thing to do, yo. All I was saying is that is wasn't worthy of arrest.

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.
How was this trapping someone to do something for him, though? He was sitting in a booth, and people bought him food...

You clearly don't understand the concept.
I understand what you're trying to say, but the "con" is still lacking a certain stimulus. He's not pushing people to do something for him. He's not leading them on. He's just sitting in a booth. It's the other people who decide to buy him food.


Now, if he comes into the restaurant all disheveled and telling people he's a needy veteran in order to get free food - that's shitty. Not worthy of arrest, though.

What, does he have to walk in and practically let on that he's ripping people off? Subtly works best and he was getting away with it. Why else would he constantly wear a uniform if not to just get hand outs because it can be expected many people respect servicemen?
Because it's their choice to give him hand outs, under no influence of his own.


And still, I'm not sure how this is worthy of arrest.

But the OP lacks any news article or anything, and I can't find anything on Google, so it could all be a load of hogwash for all we know.

Dudes have to pay a cover charge, which is anywhere between $5-$20. LOL

And you have to yell into your friend's ear in order to have a conversation? Nah.

There's tons of "homeless" and "disabled" people who do this as a career; as their main source of income.

I would be much more impressed if I read a study that shows Republicans are better informed on issues than Democrats.
Indeed. However, considering the mouthpiece of the Republican party is Fox News...I doubt that would be the case.
