The bad guys might wear military clothes... How does that stop terrorism? The bad guys could just say they're doing official duties.

  That's not why they're not allowed. It's because the bad guys might target people wearing military clothes.

    WHAT?! Then shoot those people, or, less hyperbolicly, throw them in prison. If your cops or military have to live in fear of being murdered for merely wearing their clothes, then your/their country has incredibly serious problems and needs to start treating them directly instead of hiding the consequences. I have zero frame of reference to understand that kind of environment. I literally can't imagine going out to the store and thinking, "Well, I better not wear that shirt, or I'll be murdered."

      Bit late to shoot them or throw them in prison once they've stabbed someone to death. It's not like soldiers carry guns around everywhere they go (unlike the police).
