A Fictional War to Create Fictional Heroes

Here’s the source of the data.

Yes vehicle wrecks on-duty are included. It’s occupational deaths and an occupational injury is defined as “bodily damage resulting from working”. My best guess would be that suicides don’t count.

Tell me again how cops are really all heroes for putting their lives on the line so that our society can function. As if we don’t need loggers, pilots, roofers, garbage collectors, miners, farmers, electricians, construction workers, mechanics..

It is literally more dangerous to be a garbage collector, a bartender, a taxi driver, or a landscaper than it is to be a cop. And still the cowardly little shits fire their gun at anything black and/or disabled that moves.

Tagging the “blue lives matter” morons so they’ll see this.
