QUESTION:
How would i legally wear a police uniform without being subject to LEO impersonation, i was thinking getting a vest and putting a “not police” placard on it, the costume would be for Halloween & Airsoft cosplay.
ANSWER:
I would say if it is on a holiday like Halloween or in a control area like an Airsoft field you can pretty much wear what you wish within reason. As everyone there should know it is a costume or being used for the event that is occurring.
But common sense rules when it comes to dressing up like law enforcement or fire etc. Impersonation is determined by each that looks at you. People have been dressing up as cops and fire fighters since the dawn of time for specific events and Halloween. Just make sure you know your audience and use common sense.
