i think that the court acted incorrectly

it was suggested that military honors be treated the same as trademarks, while the military valor's act should have the same force as a trademark

this say's a lot about the case, note the two speakers:

"Well, where do you stop?" said Chief Justice John Roberts, noting that Congress could have an interest in ensuring truthful representations about many personal facts. For example, he suggested Congress might criminalize lying about having a high-school diploma, while Justice Elena Kagan wondered, "How about extramarital affairs?"

i absolutely agree. as i said previously, there are exceptions, and for this case, fraud is the one exception that comes to my mind. let fraud laws deal with it.
