I think one reason why this badge topic comes up so often on all of the gun forums, inlcuding ours, is that many of the gun magazines advertise these things.

Like Guns magazine, for example. A recent ad pictured a shield-type badge, accompanied by flowery prose, like "Identify Yourself". "This Badge May Save Your Life". "Police Quality. Gold Plated". "100% Legal For Permit Holders", blah, blah, blah.

This is all advertising hype, of course, but people fall for it.
