Police Departments don't "label" anyone as anything. They simply describe the perpetrators as the applicable law and common-use language identifies them.

(sidenote) Actually I believe that you will find that it is the news media which first invented the phrase.

Which is a better job fire or police?

There is no objective basis upon which to conclude that one of these jobs is better than the other, but if I had to choose I would say police, on the basis that police departments hire more people than fire departments; it takes more people to enforce the law than to put out fires, so from the perspective of career planning, you might find it easier to get a police job.
