Much as we might despise people like this, it's worth noting that very few of these cases involve behavior that even remotely reaches the level of a crime. That's why the "Stolen Valor Act" was ruled unconstitutional in that case in your link.

This guy was charged with second-degree impersonation, and there's a good chance the case will get thrown out of court (if it even gets that far) because the prosecution will have a hard time proving that the conditions necessary for an impersonation charge have been met.
