The term pig was also used as a pejorative, such as against law enforcement officials by 1960s radicals. This term was infamously used by [[Chelsea Clinton]], the daughter of then-President Bill Clinton, in reference to the Secret Service, with her claiming that her parents referred to the Secret Service as such.<ref>http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-3029364/Book-Young-Chelsea-Clinton-called-Secret-Service-pigs-told-one-agent-s-mother-father-call-you.html</ref>
