I understand that making such a false claim is very offensive, and that a person making that kind of claim is probably a real dirtbag. It just doesn't seem bad enough to justify imposing criminal penalties.

It is apparent that you are either a fool or never got shot at in combat or else you would not make that statement.

While I have the utmost respect for our military, I take true offense at what you just said. The application of this law against people for just bragging or possessing/wearing such is thought crime at its finest. And fortunately for the rest of free America, people much smarter than you and clearly more level headed and calmer than you will make that determination. I agree with the person you quote, folk who wear them are pathetic people and need to encounter a pack of Marines in a dark alley. But to call someone a fool because they do not support a law that is clearly being used to punish thought is beyond the pale.

I'm a fool because I don't believe in criminalizing lies when there is no intent to deceive and no detrimental reliance?

Please explain why you think I'm wrong.
