I’ve heard anecdotes of veterans vigilante-clobbering people who go out in public masquerading like this. And basing that on their oath to uphold the Constitution. The emotion I could understand, the logic I never ever could. If you honor a country you at least TRY to do things the official way first. This is to throw the baby out because you can’t stand the bath water.
I’ve run into a couple of fakes in my time and I just found them to be sad. The world is loaded with incomplete and damaged males and it’s a waste of time to try to fix them.
The bigger issue is that the majority of our men never serve at all. What kind of a country can we have when 97% of the allegedly male members are too lazy or cowardly to serve in uniform and maybe risk their lives for their country, their family, their freedom?
