be smart here... Comment by: Ryan
there "would" be chaos? have you ever
been tazered until you passed out from
pain? Comment by: Sara
Where I'm from, this is typically a term
used more by black men or young adults.
It's hardly ever used by white people
(except for those that my town calls
"whiggers.") Comment by: Amanda

not in the area where you live Comment by: james
yeah, no one says this. Comment by: Marquiasha Rated:1/5

It's a lower-class slang, typical more
of
minority speech; a recognition of the
unspoken class war in American society
and
the police's role in enforcing the
racial status
quo. Derogatory. Comment by: OmegaZ
Really, only people from the ghetto use
this. It's not very popular. Actually. Comment by: Ceecee Rated:2/5
Lol yea without law enforcement there
would be more problems. its pretty
obvious
or we wouldn't have it would we?
and yea I really don't know who uses
this
slang anymore, its old Comment by: Albin Rated:2/5
It refers to the cars they used to drive
which had a 5.0 in it Comment by: Curtis
Yeah, I say 5-0 all the time. It's the
same as
saying "cops" or "po-po". It comes
from the
old TV show called Hawaii 5-0, a show
about
police officers. Hawaii was the fiftieth
state,
hence the name. Comment by: C.N.
what about Po po for the police in
America as
well? or aren't you including the rich
dialogues of the non whitey population? Comment by: k
