Well, truckers can die on the highway, pilots can die in the sky, workers in chemical plants can die from toxins, etc and they all volunteered to be there.

Now see, I disagree with that. Anyone can die in an accident, cops included. I see stories about officers dying in traffic accidents, or fires, or what-have-you. But the fact is, a trucker probably won't be shot (or even shot at) while approaching a loading dock. Someone pobably won't try to ram their plane into a pilot for little or no reason. The reputation that the police have in this country puts them in the line of fire every hour of every day that they're working.


It's obvious that I'm in the minority here, and I hesitate to call the nice folks here "hypocrites", but...c'mon. What do you guys do for a living?



Oh, and Unit? For $50K a year, I agree, they should be a lot nicer to everyone.
