Pardon me for interrupting, but most police departments are PARAmilitary in organization -- in other words, a group of civilians organized in a military fashion.

Paramilitary is an organization operating in substitution for or as a supplement to a regular military force. That is not what our police force does. It enforces civilian laws and codes. That is something that our military is forbidden to do, or used to be.
