However, I believe he has the right to be a scumbag and say scumbag things. This is guaranteed by the Bill of Rights. Folks, we can't have it both ways. We have to allow for things like this, or we are no better than the Oppressive Liberals that want to pick and choose whatever's convenient for their agendas. We are BETTER THAN THAT. In my humble opinion, he is a scumbag.

Leave it to California to elect an obviously unhinged person to a position in government. Prosecute him to the full extent of the law. Scumbag.

Prosecute him to the full extent of the law.

We making lying about certain things a crime in this county - it's a crime to lie to the federal government (see 18 U.S.C. 1001), it's a crime to say you're a doctor when you're not. What's the difference between making it a crime to lie about your military employment record? It's not censoring ideas. I’m not sure if there is a problem with this.

Sometimes it is necessary to fight fire with fire. There things that cannot be uttered without being labled and possibly prosecuted as a racist for hate speech crimes.

Also, don't forget fraud or misrepresentation. But I will stand by my belief that a person has a right to say whatever they want. However, they should also be prepared to accept the repercussions of their words. If this Alvarez lied about serving, lied about being wounded, and lied about winning the Medal of Honor (in 1987?), then he damn well better be ready to face any and all consequences. I should have said that in my earlier post. :arrow: Howie,

But there is a long list of things you can't make misrepresentations or false statements about. This is no different.

This modern day definition of 'Free Speech' never computed with me. Freedom of speech is deciding whether or not you want ice-cream or pie for dessert. Silly shit like that. This charlatan wouldn't make a good roll of toilet paper in the outhouses of Gehenna.

Definitely a scumbag. Free Speech shouldn't be something you're allowed to hide behind when you utter falsehoods and mis-truths. I don't know if he should go to jail for lying, but everyone should know who this guy is so they can judge him for what he is. Why he would lie about being a Marine makes no sense unless he was a pathological liar, desperate to have the attention. Someone would have called him on it at some point and he had to know that.

There are lots of perks that come with the Medal of Honor, including instant credibility and for damn sure respect. as it should be. And the same should go for being a Servicemember in general. We cant have people going around soiling that reputation. Thats how i see it at least I would say scumbag iggy
