I believe that the Supreme Court made a big mistake. We all have had family or friends that have lost their lives or made other sacrifices for our freedom. I do not believe that a person should ever be allowed to lie about the medals he received. As for sweetsuebjax. You husband made a great sacrifice to give you and your daughter the freedom we enjoy. You should be able to get part of his disability if they still have it for the vets. I am sorry I never served. My hearing kept me out. So stop feeling sorry for what happened and look to the future, and the freedoms that your husband and millions like him have given us over the years, and will continue to in the future. Your little girl will live in a free country to grow and mature in. All of this because we fought for our freedom

I am a single mother of a wonderful 4 year old little girl whose father was twice awarded the purple heart for wounds received in combat. It is because of those wounds that he is not capable of parenting our child. It may seem to many that this Supreme Court decision is a disappointment, but in my opinion it was a victory. My daughter's father made the sacrifices he did to protect basic rights such as freedom of speech. The Supreme Court holding up the right to speak freely just shows that what these veterans and their families have sacrificed for is worth it and is real.

Also forgot to mention that all veterans have a DD-214 that lists their awards. If someone boasts about their service they should be able/required to provide their DD-214.

My husband & I are veterans as well as many in our family. Some are still deployed to the Middle East doing what they are trained to do. My husband still has his draft card, that he shows to past & present all volunteer service people. He did not have a choice but to serve. The Supreme Court's decision to allow some to pretend to be decorated combat veterans is part of what we served to protect. This said, the best we can do is to identify these losers and "try" to embarrass them. I say "try" as anyone that would "steal" valor is less than a decent American. I praise those that have and are serving in our military. Thank you! God Bless America!
