Stolen Valor to get votes? https://www.rallypoint.com/answers/stolen-valor-to-get-votes <div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Stolen Valor is no joke and it really pisses me off that there are some who go to great lengths to place themselves among our ranks without paying the price. It is even more irritating when someone who has served claims to have done more than they actually did. I didn't see combat, I'm not scared or ashamed of that. That's just how the cards were laid out for me. I'm proud of my service. <br /><br />Now we have this Democratic candidate who revealed that he lied about being a SEAL, undoubtedly to help his candidacy. Aside from the jail time he *should* get, I don't think he should get another chance for election. I hate to say it but I'm afraid he'll just got some bad media and a slap on the wrist. <br /><br /><a target="_blank" href="http://www.ijreview.com/2014/10/191966-stolen-valor/">http://www.ijreview.com/2014/10/191966-stolen-valor/</a> <div class="pta-link-card answers-template-image type-default"> <div class="pta-link-card-picture"> <img src="https://d26horl2n8pviu.cloudfront.net/link_data_pictures/images/000/004/189/qrc/navy-seals-badge.jpg?1443025270"> </div> <div class="pta-link-card-content"> <p class="pta-link-card-title"> <a target="blank" href="http://www.ijreview.com/2014/10/191966-stolen-valor/">Stolen Valor?
