The confrontation of two weeks ago was caught on camera and went viral just this week. The local TV station interviews the kid in question. (video at the link).

Maybe there will be a part III to the incident in coming day.s

He’d serve today? What’s stopping him?

only the LGBT cross dressing gender benders need apply...

[TADSLOS]

However, more responsible voices, including the recruiter who told Scott where to buy the uniform gear, should have informed him about wearing the uniform in public.

WTFO?

[smokingfrog]

The boy is obviously not too bright. His relatives should have set him straight before things went this far. Some people are just not cut out for the military.

Obviously you didn't read past the headline.

[TADSLOS]

You ‘re right, of course, but I’m also disturbed that a military recruiter would encourage him to wear a uniform - according to the article.

[BBell]

Heres the confrontation. There is foul language.

the confrontation

[Ben Mugged]

Roman citizens would rub the sweat of Gladiators on their bodies to share in their glory. Silly Romans, there is no glory without risk.

[TigersEye]

The vets that confronted him were not polite and they were not professional.

“Obviously you didn’t read past the headline. “

I read the story but maybe I missed the part that explained why he couldn’t enlist??

[Las Vegas Ron]

I read the story but maybe I missed the part that explained why he couldn’t enlist??

In the video it explained that he couldn't pass the aptitude test.

Sad, the guy is willing but just doesn't meet the criteria.

[Chgogal]

He, sadly, did not past the test. : ( Wow! This is really sad.

[RWGinger]

thank you
I read the link but didn’t watch the vid

My heart goes out to the real Rangers who lost his fellow rangers
but also goes out to this kid
I can see he didn’t mean any harm

[Las Vegas Ron]

I agree with you 1000%

[PeteB570]

I did read the whole story and its not in the story.

You have to watch the video clip to see that he suffers from PTSD from an incident when he was three (yeah, right) and he can’t pass the ASVAB (walking carrot).

[VerySadAmerican]

Nope. Didn’t read it. But he could be a paid mercenary if he wants to fight so bad.

[ansel12]

Finding good mercenary work isn’t as easy as it seems, there are a lot of questionable operators and operations out there, and a boy too stupid for the military wouldn’t do well in choosing work, nor in executing it.

[Las Vegas Ron]

(yeah, right) and he can’t pass the ASVAB (walking carrot).

Nice comment....I would bet he has more honor than you.

[Las Vegas Ron]

Assholes like you are why I don’t even bother with this site anymore.
