Would it be freedom of speech if I claimed to be a police officer, if I wasn’t?

“Would it be freedom of speech if I claimed to be a police officer, if I wasn’t?”

It all depends on the situation, and if there are additional factors present that show fraudulent intent. Just that speech alone is not enough to be a crime, or every actor in a police drama on television would be arrested.
