<\/a><\/center><\/p>\nOne of our lurkers send us a link to NewJersey.com<\/a> which reports that Governor Christie signed New Jersey’s stolen valor act into law which is bad news for some of our usual suspects like Ron Mailahn<\/a>, Steve \u201cSnake Eyes\u201d Jordan<\/a>, and Angelo Otchy<\/a>, along with a number of trolls from that state whose comments can’t get through our filter;<\/p>\n The “New Jersey Stolen Valor Act” makes impersonating a veteran or military member “with intent to deceive for the purpose of obtaining money, property, or other tangible benefit” a third-degree crime. Violators face a mandatory minimum fine of $1,000 and a three- to five-year prison term, according to the bill.<\/p>\n It’s already a fourth degree crime under state law to wear a military uniform “with the intent to deceive,” though not necessarily for personal gain. Fourth degree crimes are punishable by up to 18 months imprisonment.<\/p>\n Fines collected under the bill would be dedicated to the new Military Dependents Scholarship Fund, for the Post 9\/11 Operation Noble Eagle, Operation Enduring Freedom, Operation Iraqi Freedom, or Operation New Dawn.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n Lucky for them, they can’t be prosecuted until they re-commit their crimes, but knowing them, that’s almost a certainty.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
