    Simply enough.. This guy is an idiot (Take it from someone who is in the military). The "Corporal" who stated all of this was just looking for attention. The Uniform isn't even correct. Just as most movies that have some kind of military action. The uniform is almost never fully equipped.

        If anything, the only thing I could see as "possibly" being offensive is his hat. He also has a whopping 0 medals on his uniform, so this Corporal is a retard.

            I'm sure he didn't intend to start anything. Celebrities never do. They can't afford to. That's why they have people to speak for them when they do manage to stir up something like this.
            You can never be too sure that 50 cent doesn't know what he's doing. He's actually a pretty smart and sneaky guy. Remember that time he got all of his twitter followers to buy up a penny stock and 3 hours later he sold his shares and got 3 mil off of the deal?

                I legit, spew soda all over the place as I was reading this. Fuccin hilarious Mr, lol.

                Aside from the "who gives a fuc" ordeal, my goal was to see if I was the only one who felt like the Corporal was really over doing it. Regardless if he was "trolling" 50, doesn't mean anything, because the context of the message doesn't necessarily interpret ones mind to think he WAS trolling. I feel it was a legit gripe he has over the uniform itself.

                However, there was something a person said in one of the comments on the message and I quote, "Who gives a shit if he is wearing a Military Uniform, it has no meaning like it did back in the World Wars." This.... really threw me for a loop. Because I can understand what that person was saying, but at the same time, the US Military is vast and efficient. Not the largest in the world, but extremely tactical.

                Either way, this Corporal either had a bad day, or was on his period. Just sayin.

                    this guy sure has a lot of spare time for someone in his position if he has time enough to spare for a comment like that.

                      Re: So, What would you say?

                      With my experience of being in the Air Force (2 1/2 years and still going), I can see where this guy is coming from; when someone joins the military, you are sent to basic and taught basic military life along with your branch's core values. During the duration of basic, you're pretty much earning the privilege to wear the uniform that represents your branch. After basic and as time progresses , you work hard to achieve ribbons, awards, getting promoted, etc; for anyone who doesn't know this ,it is actually a crime to impersonate military whatsoever - putting on ribbons and false rank is punishable under the UCMJ; however, this scenario doesn't necessarily meet this criteria.

                      In my honest opinion, I do not think that it is that big of a deal. After all, it's just a celebrity using the uniform for photoshoot/music video. You also have to take in consideration the numerous amounts of actors/models that have worn actual uniforms (Navy, Marines, Air Force, Coast Guard) without providing any service to the country. I personally do not have a problem with anyone doing something like this...especially if they aren't showing any disrespect to the uniform - like drinking in public with the uniform on, acting an ass in public with the uniform, or going around for bragging rights and pretending to be prior military or something. This is strictly business (I'm assuming 50 cent is doing this as a sign of patriotism), and I'm pretty sure 50 cent knew he was going to risk taking punches from Marines when he was going to put on that uniform in the first place. He's not stupid.

                      I think this situation is entirely being blown out of proportion. And for ffs, I'm not surprised it came from Facebook. That website is retarded as fuck.

                          I would just say he's one of those die hard patriots, however, i do have NOTHING but respect for those ballsy enough to put their life on the line for our countries liberties. Aside from that, the rage was clearly childish, and immature. But hey, we've all made mistakes, i mean if i was in the position of being able to publicly attack a well known celebrity, i would do it. "Why?" Simply for attention, why not? it's self entertaining and you get your name out there, even if it's bad feedback. But to be fair, i see nothing wrong with wearing a uniform for a music video, photo shoot etc. I mean if that hurts someones pride, i think they need help.

                            he better not know about this celebration called Halloween where people can dress up as anyone or anything

                            like, I suppose if I dress up as a pharaoh, I would be undermining whatever great hardships it would take to actually become one back in those days, but thinking of it that deeply for playing dress-up is retarded
