Not at all, Stolen Valor Act was passed a few years ago. Making it illegal to claim medals that you did not receive. There has been some talk that it should not be illegal due to the first amendment. Just throwing it out there for discussion.
ya there was that guy that faked being a navy seal on 20/20 crazy story
The First Amendment protects your right to freely critique the government. Anything else is consequential.
IMO, Karma does exist and it can be pretty harsh. They'll get what's coming to them. As for going to prison, yes, but only if they fraudulently received benefits from doing so.
Doesn't the NDAA pretty much nullify the First Amendment anyway?
As did the Patriot Act, etc...

Yep, as do "Consitution Free Zones" or whatever the heck they are called around the borders...but inside the border.
I was always under the impression, it protected "political" speech, meaning you can speak out against the government.
Now stupidity, that what makes it where you can say anything you want any time you want, but, there are consequences.
