No it doesn't.

It's worthwhile to look at the history of policing to see why it is the way it is and what purpose it serves.

A paramilitary organization is a semi-militarized force whose organizational structure, tactics, training, subculture, and (often) function are similar to those of a professional military, but is not formally part of a country's armed forces.

This describes a police force. It most certainly describes a tactical police force (ERT)
