No. This little thing called the Constitution and Freedom of expression really mean something. Having said that, if someone were to benefit monetarily (ie discounts, upgrades on flights, etc) from wearing a uniform falsely, then that constitutes fraud. You can prosecute violators for that, but for doing nothing but walking around like a douche in a uniform you didn't earn should really bring nothing but disdain and ridicule. Why do we want to make these idiots a drain on the system and pay for their three hots and a cot??

Well it irks me to get stuck behind people driving slow in the left lane. It irks me that people tattoo their face. I dislike aggressive, loud pro-life rallies and protestors. Hell, some of the idiotic crap I see on this site irks me. That doesn't mean that they shouldn't have the right to do so or that my right to not be irritated is greater than their right to irritate me. Freedom makes for easy living, it's not necessarily easy to live with!

I voted yes because if you impersonate a cop you could get jail time. I don't see why it can't be the same for us? Maybe lighter since most of the time people who impersonate service members only do it for false fame and discounts? I get the whole freedom thing you guys are saying in the comments, we're so cool that people want to dress up like us. That's awesome, costumes are costumes but if they take it a step further...

I personally think we shouldn't even sell our uniform items to the public. I could buy my NWU trousers off base at a local store and I'm OCONUS.
