I attended a CCP class recently and the instructor mentioned that we could order CCP badges from him. His reasoning was that if someone saw a weapon when you reached in your pocket or bent over and they saw a badge too they'd be less likely to freak out and dial 911. He was a big open carry proponent and suggested that if one decided to open carry instead of conceal(don't ask me why anyone would want to do that) the badge would serve the same purpose. He said he spoke to lawyers and State Attorney(not LA) who all said that wearing the badge alone would not be illegal.
I just think it's a bad idea. That if a LEO would ever see the badge that a certain amount of grief and ball busting would be coming my way even if I couldn't be convicted of anything. What do y'all think?
