As a LEO in a major agency in the midwest, I'm going to say that getting any kind of badge when you aren't a LEO is a bad idea. First of all, you have no legal LE authority, but it could be construed that you are attempting to wield such. Secondly, that is treading dangerously on the border of an impersonation charge. As to the shoot anyone with a gun line of thought...if the officers did indeed say that, they are just blowing smoke, no cop is just going to shoot someone. However, I do advise that after you are involved in a deadly force incident, you not be waving a gun in your hand when the police arrive...
