Because being a cop is less dangerous than being a roofer.
If that doesn’t make sense to you, then congrats. You’re too smart to be a cop.
Being a cop isn't even in the Top 15 of dangerous jobs. I've held 2 jobs in the top 5, and I never went around demanding respect because my job was so dangerous.
More pizza guys are killed on the job than police so yeah that checks out.
Even when adjusting for population numbers (nunbers of cop deaths vs total cops / delivery deaths vs delivery drivers) it's not even close
Being a cop is less dangerous than being a pregnant woman (in the US)
