Ah, the 9th jerket court of slameels at it’s finest. Yes, let’s allow people to knowingly lie about receiving decorations they didn’t earn, that could just lead to their obtaining fraudulent services, employment, etc. etc./s
I believe there’s a good chance the 9th Circus will again be overturned. Lying for personal gain is fraud and people lying about false military achievement in most cases do it for gain of some kind, plus they’re scumbags.
If you give them enough liberty to lie about past accomplishments they could even get elected POTUS! Isn’t that a wild thought?
Naaaah! THAT could NEVER happen, could it?
If they commit the criminal act of fraud(obtaining services, products, property, money, etc through deceit) then prosecute them for that. Those laws are already on the books and have been for many, many years.
Prosecuting some blowhard asshat for telling tall tales is ridiculous.
