WEEK 3 EOC Stolen Valor Act


The stolen valor act is when normal people who are not veterans pretend or lie to say that they are in the military, air force, marine when they have never been! I completely think this is wrong to lie about something like this because the people that have been through the training and have actually been to war, through the pain they deserve all the attention, and awards. But since we have our freedom of speech so we are pretty much allowed to lie about who we are or who we are not, what valors we have earned and which ones we have not. People also used to sell a product to tell everyone it’s the best out there, they never have to prove it, if they do get in trouble they just say we never did anything bad we just lied and use the 1st amendment act to protect them from getting in big trouble with the courts! Many figure this out using to their advantage making millions of dollars of a product. Once in trouble all they have to do is pretty much apologize take it off the market, being allowed to keep their money. Some say by using the 1st amendment you are allowed to lie to make money of a product or invention that is false. I would definitely be very upset if I actually was part of the military, protected my country and someone else was pretending and lying saying they have done everything I have done but they never did or will. People waste millions of dollars of products each year, many believe liars about doing all these valors act they claim but none of it is true... welcome to America!
