Medal Mickey-Takers

People who pretend to have won medals, but who do not already break break the law by profiting from that pretence, probably have mental health issues, anyway.

But by all means let the practice be cracked down on, one way or another.

At the same time, though, let there be some action against the recent, and downright bizarre, habit of dressing small children in the medals of dead ancestors in order to attend what have largely ceased to be remembrance events as we used to know them, and become instead rallies in support of recent, current and potential wars.

  1. It's one of the oddest things, kiddies in dead men's medals. It's really creepy.
