The NYPD does not internally call itself a "police force", its always "paramilitary organization" or similar.

    Unfortunately you saying that still has the same credibility as your first statement. It's just your word. I don't doubt they do on occasion but to say ALWAYS refer to themselves that way is a lot to take on word alone.

    "F*** the paramilitary organization" doesn't quite have the same ring to it.
