Of course LE is not the most dangerous job...just the most likely to get murdered for doing. Tough to compare shooting yourself in the foot with a nail gun to getting shot at a red light for wearing a badge.
The only thing worse than a liberal is a liberal that thinks they're a conservative.

These are my opinions, feel free to disagree.

Your family is worse off when you're murdered than when killed otherwise?

While it’s a regional thing.....we have far more people killed in oil field related accidents than we do police officers! memtb

Being a cop may not be the most dangerous job,..but it's *got* to be the most irritating, soul scorching one.
I mean, c'mon,...let's call a spade a spade.
In large parts of the country the police have become the jiggaboo patrol.
How would *you* like to have to go out every day and deal with those low IQ, impulsive, violent fuggers?
Every time you pull one over for doing some stupid schitt, you've got to worry about him shooting you with a Hi-Point 9mm.
I wouldn't take that job if it came with a dump truck load of silver dollars.

Some people choose to go shoot cavemen in Afghanistan to make a living,...some people join the jiggaboo patrol.

Y'all excuse the fug right outta me,.......but what little PC inclination I might have ever had has had its throat slit by reality.
I'm not good at hiding it and I don't really see any good reason to do so.

Most pragmatic response I have seen to date. And for what it is worth, if you are paid it is not service.

Mark Begich, Joaquin Jackson, and Heller resistance... Three huge reasons to worry about the NRA.

Probably the most underappreciated segment of our society.
I'm here to increase my social credit score and rub elbows with some of the highest rollers on the internet.

That's right Lt, I gotta watch my chit here at the farm too, tractors, loaders, 1000lb hay bales, cattle, horses and 20' bush hogs can have quite the attitude if you let any of em swarm ya. No doubt. It takes some skill and a little luck to stay alive doing many things. The distinction is that most don't entail people with a plan to kill you. Luckily for cops, most of those are really stupid.
