To the honorable men in women in law enforcement PIG stands for Pride Integrity & Guts. It always has and always will. CRIMECRUNCHER always remember not all Dumocrat are stupid. "I will not vote for obama!"

| Not sure about 'cop', but I believe that the trucker's term 'bear' for police comes from the wide brimmed hats worn by state troopers, as they were also worn by Smokey the Bear, the fellow pictured over under my name on the left of this screen.

| The popular explanation is that cop is short for "copper" which came from the fact most original badges were made of copper. But there is also the belief that it comes from the verb cop, which means "to snatch or grab," which is of course what they do to criminals.

Answer: The animal shaped cookie treats were introduced in 1902 as a Christmas novelty, and packaged so they would be hung from the Christmas trees.
