DEFINITIONS

Anti-Thought-Control Dictionary created by American Christian Ministries
POLICE

CONTROLLED MEANING: Officers hired to protect the public from crime and keep the peace – to enforce the law.

ACTUAL MEANING: The enforcement arm of the State to protect the interests of state from being damaged or compromised by the public; to keep the public submissive and under control, and collect revenue from the public for government use. Police are not hired to protect the people; they are hired to protect the state from the people. Police are government strong-arm hirelings whose job is to intimidate and suppress the public and force them to do the bidding of the politicians and bankers.
Webster’s Dictionary of the English Language, 1828
POLICE, noun [Latin politia; Gr. city.]
1. The government of a city or town; the administration of the laws and regulations of a city or incorporated town or borough; as the police of London, of New York or Boston. The word is applied also to the government of all towns in New England which are made corporations by a general statute, for certain purposes.
2. The internal regulation and government of a kingdom or state.
3. The corporation or body of men governing a city.
4. In Scottish, the pleasure-ground about a gentleman's seat.
Bouvier’s Law Dictionary, 1856
POLICE.
1. That species of superintendence by magistrates which has principally for its object the maintenance of public tranquility among the citizens. The officers who are appointed for this purpose are also called the police.
2. The word police has three significations, namely; 1. The first relates to the measures which are adopted to keep order, the, laws and ordinances on cleanliness, health, the markets, &c. 2. The second has for its object to procure to the authorities the means of detecting even the smallest attempts to commit crime, in order that the guilty may be arrested before their plans are carried into execution, and delivered over to the justice of the country. 3. The third comprehends the laws, ordinances and other measures which require the citizens to exercise their rights in a particular form.
3. Police has also been divided into administrative police, which has for its object to maintain constantly public order in every part of the general administration; and into judiciary police, which is intended principally to prevent crimes by punishing the criminals. Its object is to punish crimes which the administrative police has not been able to prevent.
Black’s Law Dictionary, 1st Edition, 1891; 2nd Edition, 1910
POLICE.

Police is the function of that branch of the administrative machinery of government which is charged with the preservation of public order and tranquility, the promotion of the public health, safety, and morals, and the prevention, detection, and punishment of crimes. The police of a state, in a comprehensive sense, embraces its whole system of internal regulation, by which the state seeks not only to preserve the public order and to prevent offenses against the state, but also to establish for the intercourse of citizen with citizen those rules of good manners and good neighborhood which are calculated to prevent a conflict of rights, and to insure to each the uninterrupted enjoyment of his own, so far as is reasonably consistent with a like enjoyment of
rights by others. Cooley, Const. Lim. '572.

It is defined by Jeremy Bentham in his works:

“Police is in general a system of precaution, either for the prevention of crime or of calamities. Its business may be distributed into eight distinct branches:
(1) Police for the prevention of offenses;
(2) police for the prevention of calamities;
(3) police for the prevention of epidemic diseases;
(4) police of charity;
(5) police of interior communications;
(6) police of public amusements;
(7) police for recent intelligence;
(8) police for registration.
POLICE OFFICER.

One of the staff of men employed in cities and towns to enforce the municipal police, i. e., the laws and ordinances for preserving the peace and good order of the community. Otherwise called “policeman."
Ballentine’s Law Dictionary, James A. Ballentine, Third Edition, 1969
police.

Verb: To keep order. To keep clean, particularly the ground around buildings of the military.

Noun: The law-enforcing department of a state or local government having the duty of maintaining order, detecting crimes, and making arrests. Peace officers. In the broadest sense, inclusive of both administrators and magistrates. State ex rel. Walsh v Hine. 59 C’onn 50. 21 A 1024.

The department of a municipal government, consisting of a head, usually known as the chief of police, captains, lieutenants, inspectors, sergeants, detectives, patrolmen, traffic officers, and other officers within the broad category of policemen, which has the duty of maintaining order, detecting crime, and making arrests.

Police power.

An authority conferred by the American constitutional system in the Tenth Amendment, U.S. Const., upon the individual states, and, in turn, delegated to local governments, through which they are enabled to establish a special department of police; adopt such laws and regulations as tend to prevent the commission of fraud and crime, and secure generally the comfort, safety, morals, health, and prosperity of its citizens by preserving the public order, preventing a conflict of rights in the common intercourse of the citizens, and insuring to each an uninterrupted enjoyment of all the privileges conferred upon him or her by the general laws.

The power of the State to place restraints on the personal freedom and property rights of persons for the protection of the public safety, health, and morals or the promotion of the public convenience and general prosperity. The police power is subject to limitations of the federal and State constitutions, and especially to the requirement of due process. Police power is the exercise of the sovereign right of a government to promote order, safety, health, morals and general welfare within constitutional limits and is an essential attribute of government. Marshall v. Kansas City, Mo., 355 S.W.2d 877, 883.
DOD/DOJ, US Code 42 §1437a.
police officer –

any person determined by a public housing agency to be, during the period of residence of that person in public housing, employed on a full-time basis as a duly licensed professional police officer by a Federal, State, or local government or by any agency thereof (including a public housing agency having an accredited police force).
