Am I allowed to wear a high visabilty jacket with police badges at the next new year fireworks show in London? ...so that I can walk through the restricted barriers (and escort my friends) to get a better view on the Embankment. And where can I buy this yellow high visabilty jacket with badges? Or where can I buy the badges and jacket separately? "The Go To Guy", email me. Alison from Big Brother 3 (UK 2002) was wearing one on her audition tape for the show. So it must be ok? Update 1: Thank Kallico. Does anyone know where can I buy the badges, jacket and warrant card? Update 2: What about a SECURITY badge instead? Is that ok? Update 3: Does anyone know where I can buy the jacket and SECURITY badge for a bargain price? Brand new or as new condition, thanks. No, this is not a wind up.
Why are Police Badges called Freddies? In certain parts of Australia the Police ID Badge is called a Freddy. Does anyone know why they are called Freddies? I've been in Law Enforecent 18 years and have alway heard them called Freddies. Maybe it's an Australian thing or at least NSW/Vic thing.
Why are metal badges being replaced with embroidered badges on police uniforms? All police in the city that I live in, and surrounding areas, no longer wear metal badges on their uniforms. The badges are embroidered onto the breast of their uniforms. They started this within the last ten years, or so, and it may have become a statewide practice. Is this method being utilized elsewhere, and if so, does anyone know why?

what details are on a police badge? I was just wondering because I'm trying to write out details for a story. One of the characters is a cop (do police even want to be called cops?) and everywhere I go, it's old time badges instead of new ones or ones that are for sale. Not sure if all of those are accurate either. Would really appreciate the help, thanks.
UK Police badges?? Do the police officers in the UK, like the London Metropolitan Police Service have badges in a flip wallet? I have never seen any wearing badges on their uniforms, anyone know why?
Do you know what a police badge looks like? Could you tell a fake? I was watching The Real Hustle last night and watched as the guys on their were using fake police badges to commander vehicles and getting into movies free, also last week they used a fake badge to stop someone and question them for shoplifting and stealing their goods without them knowing. Now I suddenly thought that if someone did that to me, flashed a badge and looked the part i would have believed they were officers too. The police say always check id, but i dont even know what a real badge looks like let alone spotting a fake one. Does anyone here know what a genuine one looks like, without researching it? Do you think you would know if someone was posing as an officer and showed you a fake? I realise that if you were sus you could call the station, but who does that? What if your not sus, would you be able to look at the badge and think hold on a minute thats fake, i know i wouldnt.
Does distrust of the Police start at home with the parents? I had an encounter the other day that made me think. I finished a call for tresspassing at a lower income apartment complex and was walking back to my car when three young kids (3-6 years old)started waving, saying hello and walking towards me. I waved back and was going to offer them some little plastic police badges for kids I carry in my car. When the kids were about five feet from me their mother burst out of her door and belted out "Don't you talk to no F*!*ing cop, get your asses back in here." Then someone else yelled from inside another apartment "Go home PIG!" Is it possible that some people grow distrustful of the police before they have ever been able to truly form their own opinion?
a security guard grabbed me and said he was a police officer and showed me a police badge? isnt that a violation? the security guard AKA pretended to be a police used Intimidation, and violated my human rights, locked me in a room like a prisoner without letting me go.

What does the star on a police badge mean? Just wondering because when I was watching Andy Griffith earlier, it looked kind of like the Pagan Pentogram. Anyone know? ***Ok, so if the badge doesn't look like it did 40 years ago I still want to know what the star means! Thanks!
How do I polish my police badge? Stupid question I know, but is there a certain way to shine up my police badge? It is silver with a gold-colored front.

If a police officer knocks on your door and tells you to open it, do you have to? I saw a show where a guy pretended to be a police officer and ended up kidnapping the little girl inside the house. If someone knocks on your door, flashed a police badge to the peep hole, and tells you to open up, do you have to? What should I do if this happens? Should I call the police department and ask them if they sent a police officer to my house? Would they think that I was paranoid or silly; I really don't want to open the door to a fake cop who could hurt me.
How do you get a police or fireman badge to put on your license plate? I often see cars with a police or fireman badge looking thing on the license plate / tag. I've seen the badge thing both big (usually plastic) and small (usually a metal type sticker). Where or how can I get one of these badge type things to put on my plate / tag, other than joining a police or fire department? The badge thing is somthing added to the plate, not a plate with a picture of a badge on it.

Need help identifying military badge WW2 or Philadelphia Police? It is either a Philadelphia police badge or WW2 Army badge as my father was in both.

It is metal with the navy blue fabric over it. It is about 2 or 3 inches long and maybe a quarter of an inch high. If anyone can identify this without a picture that would be great. Thanks!

Where can I get a custom badge made without police identification? Hello, I am a badge collector and am looking to add to my collection. I want to get a badge from a town I grew up in, but I cant get one made because every company says I need police identification.

Why is it you give a state police officer a badge & a gun and they think they are a god? I have no problems with ANY other law enforcment agency except state police. Why do they think they are god? I have never been pulled of for law breaking unless you think a little dust on a license plate is grounds for being pulled over. AND I do mean a little, you could read it at 40 feet! Funny you people think I BROKE the law. I have seen more cops fall because of breaking the law than I ever will. I'm a retired firefighter. I worked close with them also.
Are my rights different under Federal Police? I've recently noticed several Department of Homeland Security vehicles in my hometown that look like police cars (lights, badge, etc). On the side of the car it says "Federal Police". Does anyone know if our rights are any different when dealing with a "Federal Police" officer than with the local city, county, or state police? What is their jurisdiction? Since there is no local official who seems to manage them, who gives them their marching orders and who regulates them?
Should untrained police recruits be armed and badged on streets? Our police dept. arms and badges "officers" who have no formal training (with exception of fire arms qual.) under the supervision of an experienced officer. These people function as police before going to the academy or any formal training in police procedure. Is this normal procedure? I am afraid we are setting ourselves up for a lawsuit if something goes wrong. Please advise

When does a police officer receive his badge? Upon graduating the police academy or when he joins with a department? And are you considered a police officer the day you graduate academy or not until you get a job? I saw this academy graduation video and they all call out the names of the graduates "police officer so and so please come forward" (referring to the students) as they are handing out the certificates.
