How come no one call the popo the fuzz no more?

[IronWing]

"Like I was rappin' to the fuzz man" just isn't heard anymore.

 

[brianmanahan]

i still call them the fuzz quite frequently

 

[lxskllr]

How about flat foot? You never hear that anymore.

 

[Brigandier]

Fuzz, 5-0, cops, po-pos, Johnny Law, pigs, donut-munchers, and oscifer are all fine by me.

When did inner-city organized crime gangsters stop calling them "coppers?"

Prohibition era?

Oh.

I think "copper" came from England originally.

Undercovers here are called "knockers". When they call out on the corner it's "5-0". They substituted other stuff for these terms on The Wire.
It could have changed. I stopped associating with criminals a long time ago.

 

[Murloc]

I had never heard that they get called "fuzz".
I heard popo, 5-0 from the wire, flat footer is the same in italian too, while coppers and pigs are used on the internet too.

I use english only on the internet and I call them cops or police if talking about it in general.

The ENTIRE rural black south still refer to police as popo and probably always will.
