What I'm questioning is why they over, and over, and over say "Paid Duty Police Officer" on the radio - a (for all intents and purposes) closed, private radio channel. It just seems so strange to me.
Protocol, and it probably annoys them as much as it annoys you.
I explained it already, it is the proper call sign for a Paid Duty officer. It is a universally accepted term. And it doesn't annoy them. We use that language all the time on the police radio too. It is utilized by most agencies.
