What do you call the police?

[CarlKillerMiller]

5-0.

how about popos, hahaha. or copper?

 

[bradruth]

To their face: Depends on their rank or my personal affiliation with them. Officers I work with get the first name treatment, superiors get the rank (aside from those who insist I use their first name).

To others: I try not to use names to others, so I refer to them as "partner" or "other Officer" when telling a story.

 

[thomsbrain]

"po" to friends.

 

[Nebor]

I don't address police officers with a title. I don't call anyone in this world "sir." I talk to a police officer like I talk to the person working at starbucks or the governor of Texas. They're all the same to me. *shrug*

 

[jagec]

sir, cops.

 

[MustangSVT]

I never call them sir.

They dont deserve anything special until proven.

inferiority complex? cant be respectful? figures you would say something that stupid.

I have nothing against them.

Usually when speaking to them, I refer to them as officer.
When talking about them, I say cops or the police.

The other day my brother and I drove by a police car and I said "look at the pigs" but I wasn't talking about the police officer, I was talking about the 2 fat old hags that he pulled over.

cops usually but use 5-0 and popo regulary as well

Yeah, I like 5-0 and popo. 5-0 is cool to say in the car to tell the driver that you see a cop.

 

[BrokenVisage]

Me and my friends call cops the 'Kizzy'. Don't ask me why.

 

[Otaking]

I actually hadn't heard them referred to as 'pigskins' until pretty recently.
