faux-po

Imitation police officer, such as a mall security guard. Derogatory term derived from the common slang for police officer "po-po".

Jane and Sarah ventured to the food court to meet up with John and Steve. Upon arrival, John bent down to give Sarah a kiss when Steve whispered "Look out, here comes the faux-po. Better cut it out before he comes over with his flashlight and night stick!"
