    Text - SemperFiGuy 8h It's not illegal to wear military uniforms. It's not even illegal to lie about serving. It's only illegal if you use it to manipulate/gain/ profit in your favor. Reply 10.9k

    Text - RaisedByDog 8h If i remember right it's not illegal to fake your death But it is illegal if you collect insurance on it. Or using it as a means to get out of a legal responsibility like debt, alimony, etc. But if you don't do that then whats the point of faking it.

    Text - kylegamernl 10h Having a copy of the original movie, song or game that you bought. People keep saying that it's illegal to have a copy of something like that, but that's not true IF you already paid for it once. Reply 5.0k

    Text - bigscience87 8h Saying you're not a cop, if you are a cop and someone asks you if you're a cop. Really, in general it's completely legal for law enforcement to lie to you, but not the other way around. 6.6k Reply

    Text - wildlywell 7h It is legal to buy and sell tickets to R rated movies to those under 17. The policy is a self regulation imposed by theaters and movie distributors.
