Logger, fisherman, et al: Thank you for your service. Cops killing us, our children and our pets: not so much.

Lists without attribution are like the lieberal media's articles with unnamed "sources".
We may know the time Ben Carson lied, but does anyone know the time Hillary Clinton told the truth?
Immersing oneself in progressive lieberalism is no different than bathing in the sewage of Hell.

Lists without attribution are like the lieberal media's articles with unnamed "sources". The list is available online. Google it. Cop didn't make the top 10 last time I looked but was in the top 20. Roofer, cab driver, commercial fisherman, farmer and logger were in the top 10 from what I remember. A NYC cab driver doesn't get to go armed or wear body armor. Not something I'd want to do in a big city. I have done roofing, climbed utility poles and worked on industrial smoke stacks for a living. One slip or false move on any day, every day, all day in any one of those occupations and your ass is grass.

Insurance companies live by this type of info.
Loggers arehigh on the list .
Give a man a fish and he eats for a day. Give a man a welfare check, a forty ounce malt liquor, a crack pipe, an Obama phone, free health insurance. and some Air Jordan's and he votes Democrat for a lifetime.

I very much appreciate the police but to listen to TV, news and entertainment you'd think it is absolutely, by far, the most dangerous job in the world. The latest info I have found it is 14th on the list of most dangerous jobs, behind logging, fishermen, pilots, roofers, steel workers, truck drivers, farmers, ranchers, construction laborers, etc. What about these people that put food on your table, deliver your goods, build your houses, etc. Like I said, I very much appreciate the police and the work they do but it really does not need to be so blown out of proportion.

I have done at least 5 of the top ten, including farming, logging, roofing. I broke my back and deal with extreme, crippling pain 24/7, and have for the last 17 years and going. I accept gratitude in the form of large donations, officers.

It’s been a few years since I researched it but I do remember that “ garbageman “ was more dangerous than “ cop “. Both were in top twenty but not top ten.
Cops rate high because of vehicle accidents primarily.

Why would I "call" anyone, except that it is mandated by law that I do so? What a ludicrous notion on a firearms forum. What are the cops gonna do, except their jobs, which is to apprehend suspects and collect evidence? Are you asserting that cops' job is to protect me from "boons"? The SCOTUS disagrees, and the policy of every LEO organization also disagrees. You can do better. I know, because I have read many of your posts. Don't stoop to this sort of nonsense.

Loggers are high on the list . And according to our annual first aid/safety/ProLogger training meeting, log truck drivers file the most work comp claims...... Slips and falls climbing around on the truck.... You would think it would be us sawyers ...................

Might be interesting and/or eye opening to have a chart which workers whine the most about how dangerous their job is.

Might be interesting and/or eye opening to have a chart which workers whine the most about how dangerous their job is. Finally, something the coppers can win.
These are my opinions, feel free to disagree.
