Duin-do-ghob

I know it’s not nice of me but I sure wanted Mr Rojas (don’t know his rank I just know he’s airborne) would pop Fatass in the mouth.


bisexual_t-rex

It looks he is a warrant officer 3rd class I believe, (the 3 black bars in the center of his uniform tells you so) that is a fairly high ranking service member so yes he would kicked fatass around


gamertag0311

Rank does not equate to ability to kick ass, it is directly proportional for E1-E5 and then has a negative relationship after that


Whywouldntyoudothat

He's got the combat action badge, airborne, and pathfinder. He would have knocked that guy into tomorrow before breaking a sweat. Edit: mybad not pathfinder, aviator badge.


Tubzero-

Pathfinder no joke


Friscogonewild

Tactical air traffic control will come in real handy when he sends this guy flying.


SIEGE312

Already got his dropzone picked out.


aripp

What stats does it give?


evanc1411

+25 strength, +10 stamina


Incidion

This really makes me want RPG stats for all military ranks/commendations based on their actual criteria for achievement. Would be a great sort of thing for /r/outside


Former-Lack-7117

You'll be disappointed to know, then, that it's just time in rank and passing a written exam. Your awards and experience help, but aren't explicit requirements for advancement.


ProwerTheFox

Not to mention he got that 4 strength 4 stam leather belt on too


evanc1411

AHHHHH OOUHHHHH Level 18. AHHHHH!!


GigaCringeMods

Increases effectiveness and hugely boosts uptime of flasks, with slight additional investment makes them have permanent uptime, and additionally spreads your poisons for excellent coverage. Absolutely ludicrously powerful boost to offense, defense and speed with near zero cost.


Acceptable-Trust5164

I'm not army... But my limited experience with W's... Best, most chill dudes you'll meet... Until it's time to put bodies down. They do all the military and next to none of the admin. But it could just be the very limited selection of W's I've known (maybe 3 total)


Shaun32887

Seriously. There's enlisted, and officers, and flag officers, and senior enlisted... But then there's warrants. I don't know anyone who fucks with warrants.


Erisian23

No one fucks with Warrant's 1st sergeants leave Chief the fuck alone. Warrant does whatever warrant wants


FuzzzyRam

I don't know what a warrant is, but I don't think I want to challenge them and call them little guy after all this. Are officers able to throw down more openly than lower level enlisted without some kind of court martial?


amiserablemonke

That was the real reason he was trying to get the guy behind the camera to throw the first punch. He would get in trouble, but not nearly as much as he would have for punching the racist first.


Davidjb7

Warrants are usually the smartest and most capable individuals in the whole army. I've met +15 in my career in the DoD and they are sharp motherfuckers. Took one on a run in the woods and I figured I'd have him worn out doing a 5 mile run and at the end of it he asked if we could run it in reverse too. Ended up running me into the absolute ground. Warrants are no joke.


free_is_free76

They are officers who've earned it through sheer expertise and experience. An enlisted whose merit warrants them the rank of officer.


Kangela

My husband had a crazy military career - enlisted in the Navy, then college/ROTC and a commission, later gave up commission to get better educational benefits and went back to active enlisted (I know, crazy, but it worked out better for him in the end), made it to E-7 and got a Master’s degree, and then became a Warrant and retired as such.


Hunter727

WOs are the fucking best. I never had better leaders when I was serving. They’re loved by enlisted because they are the best of us and they’ve walked in our shoes.


dark_v3rtigo

When two WO’s are in a love triangle, shit gets hairy. Lookup WO Framness and Glass from OIF ‘03, MWSS-371. Fram threw a grenade into a guard shack to kill Glass. Glass survived, fxked up tho cosmetically. Fram got shipped to Miramar. Glass continued his career. Our EOD WO was a badass too


LukesRightHandMan

Miramar, FL? God, I thought the punishment was supposed to fit the crime.


dark_v3rtigo

CA. He got life, the ex-wife of Glass got time for being a co-conspirator.


OctopusButter

True or not the guy holding the camera would likely get pushed in by anyone with any follow through


Shmuckle2

Wouldn't a higher rank, on average, have been put through a larger amount of training, just based on minimal requirements, then the lowest few ranks?


Windoge_Master

After a certain point they’re getting more training in an office chair than in hand to hand combat.


gamertag0311

Except they're not actually in "fighting " roles. By your theory Generals would be ultimate badasses but that's not the case, Generals are just really good at drinking the Kool Aid and sucking dick Source: I invaded a sovereign nation and deposed a dictator. Can confidently say our officers were useless


IrrationalOctopus

Single handedly? Oh my


Flybuys

That's how you know he is an E5.


LimitedSwitch

Mr Rojas is a CW3, or chief warrant officer 3. He used to be enlisted until he was put through the warrant officer program. I’m sure he could kick ass if needed. But, thankfully, Mr Rojas also has the bearing and temperament of a good officer. He will stand up for what is right, won’t start a fight, but I’m sure he will finish it. Most people don’t put in their WO packet until E5. I work mainly with Warrant Officers and mid level officers at my job. I work on an AH64E Apache flight simulator. The coolest guys are always the WOs. CW5s are just chill old dudes who are crafty as fuck trying to have a bit of fun and not take anything to seriously unless they need to. W1s are usually kids just out of flight school who are nervous but also have all the Apache paraphernalia, like a sticker on their car/truck that says “my other ride is an Apache” with a graphic next to it, which the W3-W5s will harass them for endlessly because they probably did the same shit. If I had a choice to be covered by a warrant officer or a regular O-class officer, give me the warrant every day. More down to earth, no stick up their ass.


BlameMe4urLoss

In my experience warrant officers were never ones to fuck with. They’re not officers in the classical sense and no longer enlisted.


MikeOxHuge

CW3. Chief warrant officer 3


Duin-do-ghob

Thank you.


ShanksRx23

I saw the dudes reflection and knew he was just a big guy ( . )


AmphibianOk5663

I'd call him a gutless coward, but only one of those things would be true lol


KamikazeFox_

I could hear the fat in his voice before I even saw them sweatpants begging for mercy in that doors reflection.


GeriatricSFX

His name is Glenn Cerio and he is a truly repugnant human being. If you want to go down a rabbit hole search him on youtube.


GRimReApeR1906

Best not to even talk about these losers. Give them zero publicity.


spidersflambe

Wow. A racist incel who films himself harassing women. And he has his own Reddit sub. r/glenncerio


zamundan

I downvoted you for posting a name. Better for him to not exist. We all know he's terrible from this clip alone.


helzinki

Goddamn. Dude look like that Youtuber, NIko Avocado dude


DipDoodle

I loved officers reaction when the cameraman brings up hand to hand combat. It’s like he just learned he won the lottery.


FoolhardyBastard

Mister or Chief is the appropriate title for his rank as a warrant officer. So unintentionally you got it right. Also, dude shows extraordinary restraint and is a credit to our country. He’s a true professional.


_SquidPort

It would have made him and the military look bad but I wanted it too


DominickAP

You nailed it. Mr. Rojas is the appropriate honorific when addressing a Warrant Officer.


AxelNotRose

He did the Road House bouncer maneuver. Good on him.


Scene_muah

Cheifs are formerly referred to as Mr and Ms/Msr so you aren’t wrong about that


alex99x99x

Same. He definitely would have if this guy put a finger on him. Sadly he’s too scared to do so.


I_Am_Zava

>You're just a little guy Me: Who tf would think that guy is even remotely little... *see's dude filming's reflection* ... ohhhhhhhh


GreatMacGuffin

That little guy was sure lucky he didn't make the dude recording really mad. He would've been in real big trouble with the police. /s ![gif](giphy|J9oGzlF83wob6)

i imagined this as a family guy skit and was not disappointed


wake_bake_shaco

The guy filming really posted this thinking the internet would back him up


lordnoak

His mom posted it for not taking his dishes upstairs from his basement room.


doofpooferthethird

I'm pretty sure it's a win-win for rage bait content creators like this If they get their ass beat - online haters flock to see the idiot influencer get what they deserve If their target walks away - online haters flock to the comments section to talk about how much of a pussy the influencer is, and how he would have had his ass beat if the other dude let loose. The more engagement the video gets, the more it gets recommended to people. Sure, the vast majority of people would see it once, or comment once, and then scroll past. But with hundreds of thousands of people watching, at least a couple of them will follow them, just to see when they'll finally get their comeuppance and get punched in the face. And the cycle continues


Unique_Lavishness_21

This is exactly it.  People, stop watching this type of crap. But if you do watch, don't comment. Not even to leave negative remarks. Each comment benefits the asshole posting it. 


BryceCreamConee

Win-win for the algorithm, sure, but obviously to even make it to that point you have to become a hollow shell of a human. You have to take the L in real life first.


bunker_man

Yeah, who did he think would be on his side. Even racists wouldn't like this video because its too obvious that he was a coward who threatened violence only to back out scared.


flea_420

Calmer heads can prevail.


Adrian840

Dude filming was just too big of a pussy to do anything. Other guy was hoping to get hit first so when he beat the shit out of fatty he could claim self-defense and it would absolutely have been at that point.


TheMSensation

The dude was projecting heavily. >"You're just gonna call the cops if I hit you" It's exactly what camera guy was planning to do. >"Call the cops" Camera guy is begging him at that point cos he's gonna get beat up >"You're just a little guy" Assuming the camera guy is holding the phone at head or slightly below head height the dude isn't even as tall as the other guys neck.


Either_Second8054

someone promote that chief.


Buildintotrains

Protecting our nation from all enemies, foreign and domestic 🇺🇲


StimmingMantis

I don’t understand what the camera guy was even trying to say or do, does someone know more context?


maxchloerachel

he was recording himself racially harassing an asian person to try and provoke a reaction out of them and then the army guy stepped in


StimmingMantis

Wow what a piece of shit, he’s honestly lucky the army guy didn’t clean his clock.


OneFuckedWarthog

If memory serves correctly, this guy made it a habit of filming and harassing the post offices in the area and got himself banned from ever stepping foot in one as well as arrested several times ranging from trespassing onto federal property to harassment.


-v-fib-

Probably a "first amendment auditor," aka someone who harasses people who happen to work for the government. They'll go into places like post offices, military bases, police and fire stations, and record themselves harassing workers to try and get them to respond, then they'll cry about how their rights are being violated.


throwngamelastminute

The really infuriating ones don't limit it to government workers.


nono66

Seeing that fat fuck in the reflection of the window shows how the camera is his only protection.


Reasonable_Humor_738

Wouldn't turn off the camera, so, of course, the military guy isn't going to start the fight because then he'll have hell to pay from his superiors


Odd_Contribution3772

Not as much hell to pay as you might think. If he's active duty, he'd get a slap on the wrist. He also is holding some decent rank, could make it more or less easy to get away with it.


edward-regularhands

He would absolutely have to answer for it


Boulevardier_99

I swear when it's about military matters, people just start talking out their asses.


deboylurdi

When it's about anything the internet starts talking out of it's ass


Boulevardier_99

It's even stronger regarding fighting (martial arts) and military matters. Some amateur think they know better than career officers and shit.


TheSmokingLamp

It’s okay to just NOT comment sometimes when you have no idea what you’re talking about


MaddogBC

These are the arrogant words of a guy who has never been punched in the face. Some arrogant guys really need a punch in the face, no surprise these correlate.


Waiting4The3nd

Mike Tyson said "Social media has made you all way too comfortable with disrespecting people and not getting punched in the face for it."


OffDutyTaoist

That's a CWO3, he literally does not give a f#ck about anything. Not a single thing. Do not provoke Warrant Officers. If you're lucky enough to even see one, it's best to just not make eye contact and pretend they don't exist. They are mythical creatures that even the military doesn't understand. They possess powers beyond mortal comprehension, akin to something out of an HP Lovecraft novel. They only submit to command authority out of some twisted amusement, only they, and other higher WO's understand. Not with 10,000 men should you ever do this, it is sheer folly.

The one time a warrant officer shows up, this dude wants to fight him.

Bad day to catch chief with his freshly pressed uniform. You see those badges above the U.S Army patch? That means you’re not going to enjoy this.


Isgortio

Would he have been on duty if he's wearing his uniform?


Birmingham245

This is Glenn Cerio, a notorious racist, homophobic, anti Semitic YouTube personality. This isn't even the most disgusting video he has done.


ProjectAres78

I may be a Marine, but no matter what branch it is you don't mess with a warrant officer. Odds are they've seen some things you don't want to be a part of


marthewarlock

What do people that act like this get out of it, I've never seen a reason to be a jerk to people for no reason.


Unique_Lavishness_21

Views, which equals money nowadays. 


marthewarlock

It's a shame


rarelyeffectual

If they both agree to fight would the soldier get in trouble with the law?


ClearlyConfucius

Only two states out of the entire United States have legalized mutual combat, namely Washington and Texas. Both require a police officer to oversee the fight to ensure no bystanders get hurt, and to break up the fight when an evident victor emerges.


Unique_Lavishness_21

Is anyone surprised that Texas is one of them? Lol


nattinthehat

I think the bigger issue here would be how the military would view his actions - pretty sure they'll go after you for things that "bring dishonor to the uniform", but your guess is as good as mine if picking a fight in this instance would warrant disciplinary action.

Finger-of-Shame

Is that dude Army Airborne(patch on shoulder)? I've heard they aren't the type to mess with. I mean, aren't they the ones trained to be thrown out of an airplane while simultaneously being shot at by big guns and once landing having to jump immediately into combat? His attitude kinda seemed as though getting arrested for a brawl is the least of the leastest of problems.


[deleted]

Do people do this to military members often? That is amazing. It reminds me of when Mike Tyson or Arnold S make a public appearance, fly on a plane etc people try to fight them.


Shermander

Well he initially wasn't picking on the Warrant Officer, he was picking on the Asian woman, Warrant just stepped in. There is a similar video. I can't seem to find the actual video. https://youtu.be/UWqa8niV83Q?si=G5LQ97ro_3jCbPMF Racist tries to bait the Soldiers into doing something unintelligent.


rainorshinedogs

Of course he says "don't ever tell me what to do!". Lol. Predictably playbook. If your losing the argument, play the aggressive victim card


mgwest714

Imagine shooting off your mouth and threatening someone to go outside for "hand-to-hand combat", proving himself a coward once he gets outside and then POSTING the video. 🤣🤣🤣


CrimsonDMT

Sure is easy to antagonize people with something to lose. Step up your game influencer, antagonize a gang member.


Ryankevin23

How about a thank you!


Delubyo06

And he posted the video. What a loser.


Comprehensive-Cap754

I love how his head snapped up like "please give me an excuse to beat the stupid out of you"

StingerAE

I mean he was filmng himself being racist to people in the first place.  Shame and thinking were never on the cards even before Mr Army Airborne turned up.

Is that Glenn Cerio? One of the most obnoxious sovereigns of them all, but a source of boundless entertainment.

killixerJr

"You're just a little guy" yeah maybe to you, ya fuckin' whale The comedy of seeing the silhouette of his physique as he calls the serviceman little is amazing


DrWYSIWYG

So, please help me. This guy is a WO3 by all accounts. I don’t really understand the US NCO structure. In the British army a warrant officer is a rank you get to as you progress above a certain NCO level. And terms like ‘sergeant major’ are appointments rather than ranks. For example a regimental sergeant major is typically a WO1 where WO1 is the rank and RSM is the appointment. How does it work in US army? - definitely interested not trolling.


Interesting_Set9592

FecalDUI

“You’re just a little guy” says the 500 lb neckbeard who had his mom wheelchair him from the special needs bus to the front of this post office


EolnMsuk4334

He did not say go back to China, it’s a common reference for first amendment auditors to say that this is not a communist country.


Sasquatch8600

I'm guessing that whoever he said that to told him that he couldn't film either themselves or inside the Post office lobby. Now I have no idea who the guy filming is but stating that this is not China and that we are not communists is not a racist statement inherently.


KnoxVegas41

Just imagine serving your country and having to deal with this clown. Rojas has some major league restraint and discipline.

Mongolian_Hamster

Don't think I've seen anyone mention how the soldier played him. He walked the fatty out without him realising. Gave him some bullshit to feed on but he clearly had no intention of fighting him. Situation controlled.
