paramilitaries?

originaly posted by wikipediea which means i could have written it to prove a point:
Depending on context, paramilitaries can include:

Military forces outside the army, e.g. gendarmeries and forces such as the Indian Paramilitary Forces and People's Armed Police.
Illegal forces which consider themselves military but which governments consider terrorist, e.g. Provisional IRA, Ulster Volunteer Force, AUC, guerrillas.
Private armies and militias.
Militarized preexisting government agencies, such as SWAT teams. [2]
Auxiliary services of regular armed forces, such as the United States Coast Guard Auxiliary and the adult portion of the Civil Air Patrol.
Youth groups and movements that can be considered 'militarized' to various degrees, the Hitler Youth movement being perhaps the most notorious example. Less nefarious modern examples include miltary cadet movements like the Royal Canadian Air Cadets, the American Civil Air Patrol and India's National Cadet Corps. Whether various global Boy Scout organizations fill the necessary criteria today or historically is a topic of debate.
