From an LEO. A CCW badge is a bad idea all the way around. Aside from finding it personally offensive as a desecration of something sacred many of us have earned, it can also be very dangerous to real LEO's in the wrong hands.
Also, a DA or AUSA will have no trouble painting you as a "gun shop commando" or a wannabe. Just enjoy your right to carry discreetly and use sound judgement. Please put the badges away! I always respect a ccw holders right to carry especially if they extend me the courtesy of letting me know they're armed. But, if they brandish a Badge, or if I noticed they have one, it would certainly raise my suspicions or cast them in a negative light. I think the same can be said for any LEO, and remember most of us, or at least the ones I know, are generally gun friendly.
Sorry, they're (CCW Badges) just a very bad idea and you don't need them if your carrying lawfully. They're actually kind of a joke.
