    what is a “hemi”

    V8 engines from Chrysler.

    why should I care if I got passed by it?

    Nobody cares, really.

    all veterans deserve respect

    They don’t but even so, odds are this guy didn’t serve in active conflict thus not a war veteran. Joining the arms forces does not make you a war veteran and thus deserving of your respect.

      I would argue that they deserve less respect that no veterans. Imagine being so stupid that you join a war crime force.

        Not necessarily stupid. There’s a reason military recruitment primarily comes from the poorest parts of the nation with the least opportunities
