    Law enforcement isn’t even one of the 25 most dangerous jobs in America. Trimming trees is many times more dangerous, for one.

    According to the most recent data available (2020-2021), the most common causes of cops dying were covid and vehicular accidents. Both of which have been directly or indirectly self-inflicted via reckless behaviour in many if not the majority of cases.

    In conclusion: fuck off with your Hollywood fantasies of heroic cops doing one of the most dangerous and important jobs to protect the rest of us, lickspittle, that’s not real. Cops murdering and otherwise unlawfully abusing people with impunity is.
