Term popularized by the Black Panthers in 1967 to refer to police who lived in the suburbs and occupied the inner city like a colonizing army. Accordingly, the associations with greed and capitalism work well in this context. The term gained currency Thanks to Emory Douglas' art.
Now generally used of the police in a negative but not necessarily revolutionary manner.
