Police are on the list... at #14. Occupations more dangerous than being a police officer in the USA: Logging. Fishing. Aircraft pilots and engineers. Roofers. Garbage and recycling. Iron and steel workers. Commercial truck drivers. Farmers/ranchers. Supervisors in construction and extraction. Agricultural workers. Grounds maintenance. Supervisors of mechanics, installers and repairers. Construction labor. And then police. Police aren't quick to fire because of their fear for their own safety.
