Quick question.

Where’s the proof for anything you’ve said? Cuz pretty much all you did was give your opinion with no evidence.

Also, who do you think you are to determine who values and cares about our members of the military and veterans? Seriously, who do you think you are?

Lastly. And I cannot emphasize this enough. You are a hypocrite. “Fake patriots sharing this video for clickbait and views.” You are doing the exact same thing. With a catchy thumbnail and absolutely NO empirical evidence to support any of your claims.

You would’ve lost my respect, but then again you never had it to begin with.

Jhoanna Acasio says:

My dad is a veteran and I've always been so proud of him and thankful for his sacrifice to ensure the safety of his family and country by serving the U.S military for 6 years. Not seeing him for months on end and praying for his safe return was no laughing matter and nothing entertaining about it either. So if that viral video was indeed "staged" it would've been best to "let sleeping dogs lie" instead of making it more of a viral sensation for the sake of entertainment

James A says:

WHAT IS A VETERAN?

A VETERAN – WHETHER ACTIVE DUTY, DISCHARGED, RETIRED, OR RESERVEIS SOMEONE WHO, AT ONE POINT IN HIS LIFE, WROTE A BLANK CHECK MADE PAYABLE TO "THE UNITED STATES OF

AMERICA" FOR AN AMOUNT OF "UP TO AND INCLUDING HIS OR HER LIFE…"

THAT IS HONOR

AND THERE ARE WAY TOO MANY PEOPLE IN THIS COUNTRY TODAY, WHO DON'T UNDERSTAND THAT FACT.

Brando Q says:

I mean if I was in the military, I would be asking for military discount too including in McDonald so I can save money

Rez kenneth Laurente says:

Sorry I think your mistaken for Jollibee nit McDonalds

BenTXVue says:

I don’t think he realizes most marines who come out of the military usually come out broke. If you ask a homeless person what caused them to be like that, I bet 50% of them will say that they were in the military.

The Conservative Social Regressive says:

Some fast food restaurants do offer a military discount so your assumption that the video is staged based on that line of thinking is flawed. Given your overall opinion and line of thinking I wonder if you have served anyone but yourself in your whole self absorbed pathetic life? Let face facts here. You are doing the exact same thing that you put others down for. Come on down from your self righteous high horse.

T-gmer says:

My brother is in the military, and he always asks at a fast food restaurant if they offer military discount.

Two Candles says:

Anyone who disrespects veterans really gets my blood boiling…. it fills me with the ultimate fury.

lovelycall says:

This dude looks like the asshole friend in the group, or the one who has a nicotine addiction.

Carolyn Childers says:

Nathan J says:

I mean.. Trump did do a lot for the military despite his intentions 🤔

Mart anthony Nagano says:

It’s not McDonald’s it’s Jollibee

Cyle Bertrand says:

This guy is a absolute idiot, couldn’t hack it in the military.

Dumb Scorpion says:

I mean I ask for military discount at McDonald's. Saved me 2 bucks 😁.

Joseph Whitecrow says:

I use to believe this was a real conversation

ATARi _HMB says:

It's not even McDonalds though

Dan Rudder says:

I ask for a military discount at McDonalds.

Byron Williams says:

The Young Turds? Oh yeah, now we know what the fake reporting is.

MW_MystiK_ says:

Marc6365 Sam says:
