It's Illegal To Wear Camo In These Countries #funfact

It’s illegal to wear anything with a camouflage print in these 11 countries

[WasntYourFaultYouHaveToLetMeGo]

In the Philippines it's just the uniform. You can wear camo backpacks, flips flops or shorts without issue.

Imagine you’re just strolling through the street full covered in camo gear and the government jumps you and strips you butt-naked

Philippines only prohibits you from wearing the military Uniforms, not the pattern itself.

They discourage the use of camouflage gear in rural settings, especially in places with known insurgencies, so as no to be mistaken for rebels/military.

"did you saw my client wearing camouflage?"
"Yes"
"Them it wasn't camouflage. You honour case dismissed"

how will they catch me? If I’m wearing good enough camo, then they wont even know

Funfact: in Argentina in 1988, a Poodle named "Cachi" killed 3 people, he fell off a 13th floor balcony onto a 75 year old woman who was coincidentally passing by at the time, Cachi fell and hit the old woman killing both instantly. A 45 year old woman on the other side of the street saw what happened and rushed to help but just at that moment a bus happened to be in the street and hit the woman accidentally, killing her, meanwhile an old man who had heart problems saw what happened, and fainted, he later died on the way to the hospital.

Listing the countries where camo is illegal made me think of Yakko singing the countries of the world.
"United States, Panama, Mexico, Canada . . ."

It’s true, I’ve been to Jamaica a couple of times now and the first time I went I didn’t know this law existed. I was going to a restaurant in town when one of the police men stopped me and asked me if I had any other clothes to change in to. Luckily I did because I was planning on going swimming, he explained to me that only military personnel and authorities are allowed to wear camouflage. Definitely not what I was expected on my trip.

It's ok they won't be able to tell I'm wearing camo underwear 😎

"no camo bags, flip flops"
Fashion is truly a gift that keeps on giving

[daGhettoAndri]

Imagine your just walking through the streets and some random cop shows up and steals your shorts

[aaeve]

Filipino here, I've never heard of that law, I have like 3 Camo shorts 💀

[argyrosin]

My guy really went “ United States, Canada, Mexico, Panama” for a bit there

As someone in Saudi Arabia, its completely okay to wear things with camouflage print, I’ve spoken to a few relatives who work in the police and we had this conversation once, its fine as long as you’re not in full camoflauge, a shirt with a camoflauge print is okay as long as the shorts arent in the same camouflage

“Hey you can’t wear camo pants! I’ll have to confiscate those!”

*Cue 70s porno music*

In the Philippines (particularly in rural areas), it's also a matter of survival. Wear camo on a hike through the mountains and you'll likely get shot by rebel forces thinking you're military.

Damn, he turned into Yakko for a minute there.

I was on an empty beach in Barbados with my wife and a concerned local walked all the way down and warned me in the sweetest grandmother way to not wear camouflage shorts.
