Did ya hear what happened to the youth in BOP that went to court for calling a policeman a pig? He was "sentenced" to spend the day on a pig farm and then write a report on his experience!

I was always under the impression that it was a generic insult.

From: www.wordorigins.org:

"The OED2 has pig being used as a term for a contemptuous person as early as 1546. The earliest cite for a police officer in particular is from the Lexicon Balatronicum of 1811, which defines pig as "a China Street Pig, a Bow Street officer." The Bow Street Runners were an early police force of London, named after the street that housed their headquarters. The Lexicon Balatronicum also offers "floor the pig and bolt," meaning to knock the policeman down and run. According to Partridge, by 1873 the term’s usage was restricted to plain clothes officers. The term was as underground term, part of the criminal argot, until it emerged into the mainstream in the 1960’s."

'...mainstream in the 1960's' as referred to the quote above and Scumdog's previous question, is also in respect to 1960's anti-vietnam war protesters referring to _all_ establishment representatives, although especially police, to whom they had most direct contact with, as "Fascist Pigs".

Yeah well time to up the ante a little sunshine, your wage paying is insufficient for me to up-grade to a Superglide like I "need" to

-Time you got a second job so's I can live the life of poverty you keep me in a little more comfortably

[White trash]

for me to up-grade to a Superglide like I "need" to

Damn right! How the hell someone can call themselves 'Scumdog" while riding a Skirtster is beyond my limited mental cabability
