Slave patrols

The origins of modern-day policing can be traced back to the "Slave Patrol." The earliest formal slave patrol was created in the Carolinas in the early 1700s with one mission: to establish a system of terror and squash slave uprisings with the capacity to pursue, apprehend, and return runaway slaves to their owners. Tactics included the use of excessive force to control and produce desired slave behavior.

No it has never been an acronym.

It is rather a backronym.

”A backronym is a phrase created to fit an existing word or acronym, often for humorous or mnemonic purposes.”

Don’t be always gullible to just believe things you see.

The full meaning of "police" is derived from the Greek word "politeia," meaning "administration" or "government." So, "police" generally refers to the civil force responsible for maintaining order, enforcing laws, and preventing and investigating crimes within a specific jurisdiction.

Dumb comment
He was right, very rubbish thread spreading ignorance and misinformation. One person just picks up a word, fabricates some false acronyms, posts, then people start sharing and some believing it's true with all their chest for the rest of their lives. Very useless thread.
