You can get a badge at the dollar store. Id, not so much.
The ID has thier picture on it so that you know it is thiers. The badge… not so much.
Most of us have decent idea what out state ID looks like. Maybe not enough to spot a decent forgery, but far better than a police badge which can be different. You have town, city, county, and state leos. And the all the feds.

Where im at when you ask for badge its a little pocketbook type thing with their police id and badge so for me its essentially the same thing. Its funny because I actually had an experience where four guys in vests came out of a car and told me to halt or such and I backed away with my hands up and said I need to see some identification which one pulled out whereupon I stopped backing up. They could have been gang members looking to rough me up.
