The 6-3 majority opinion upheld a Ninth U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals decision that had declared unconstitutional the Stolen Valor Act, a 2006 statute Congress passed "to protect the reputation and meaning" of military honors.

So is perjury now protected under the First Amendment, or would our philosopher-kings on the bench say "well that's different."?

I doubt that perjury is now protected by the courts after all it's an important tool in determining guilt. But will it be a punishable offense or will all appeals of convictions be based on 1st Amendment Rights.

This is 'slippery slope' we don't want to go down.
