The term "billy club" dates from 1848 and originally was what burglars called a crowbar. Prime Minister Robert Peel established London's first Police Department in 1829. The officers were called "bobbies" in his honor and in the 1850s their truncheons became known as "billy clubs." I don't know why, though. The truncheons were made of wood, not metal, and they weren't used for prying windows open. As for the "old timey word," try this:

The "people who did the tea party" were the Sons of Liberty. I wouldn't be surprised to learn that protesters think the name should be changed to the gender-neutral "Persons of Liberty."

ha, that's funny 98.

also god bless those guys.

double also, screw those anti obama people who stole the name to protest a few years back. i dug obama. i don't really remember clinton and i was born in 83 so i only got the last of reagan's term as a baby so i think obama was the best president of my life. and he killed bin laden, that guy was the worst.

i didn't like how he or maybe kerry stated they were drawing a red line w/syria and then backed down.
