Roofers, landscapers, construction workers, garbage collectors, truck drivers and farmers are all in much more dangerous and essential occupations than those choosing to be police officers. Police officers just complain the loudest.
Police officers cause much more death in the population than they are subjected to “in the line of duty”. They are net aggressors.

Please don’t rob us, we don’t carry more than $20 in cash for a reason.
When I managed a pizza place, people would ask if the driver could bring change for $100. I’d tell them if they wanted to leave a $50 tip, the driver can give them his $20.
I was once told you rob a delivery man for his pizza not his cash as the police won’t do shit for theft of pizza.
I wonder how many of the deaths are violence versus traffic accidents from being made to drive all the time under time pressure.
Sad either way.
The real most dangerous job is tree feller.
