If you're like me then both people in this video might make you cringe a little. There's the blind-sided and apparently fake ranger, who knows his terminology but seems to get tripped up on the details. And there's the real veteran who has a point but kinda looks like he uses his kid as an excuse to start the confrontation. His anger is understandable. According to the Reddit hivemind — which has made some mistakes in the past — the supposed fake was scoring Black Friday deals aimed at veterans. I don't know anything about military. Is this a case of "stolen valor" or not?
