[QUOTE="FordSVTFan, post: 787850, member: 2243"] There are a couple of explanations I have heard. The first one is it is a shortened version of the term "copper"! Which arose in the early 1900's when police in the large towns on the east coast wore uniforms with large cooper buttons down the front and you could see them coming! The other stood for "Citizens on Patrol"! I think the first one is more accurate and the second one was derived as an Acronym of the Cop. [/QUOTE]
