              The term Copper was the original, unshortened word, originally used in Britain to mean someone who captures. (In British English the term Cop is recorded (Shorter Oxford Dictionary) in the sense of To Capture from 1704, derived from the Latin Capere via the Old French Caper). The common myth is that its a term referring to the police officers buttons which are made of copper.

                a cop, pig, policeman, etc, given to eating large amounts of donuts and harrassing [speeders] and citizens passing by. Restraurant owners put up with them due to fear of retribution; however they are avoided at all costs by others. The IQ of coppers is limited by law, because they must not realize just how stupid they are or they may quit.......and thus the world would turn to [decadence] [ad infinitum]......or would it??
