      Our friendly neighborhood DA @chesaboudin is at it again. This man SHOT A GUN AT PEOPLE. He was released from jail so he wouldn’t get sick. I swear to god not everyone who lives in SF thinks this is okay. I feel immense sympathy for the police who risk their lives for this. :(https://twitter.com/SFPDTenderloin/status/1244382017153691648 …

      I'm surprised you're into talking about cops "putting their lives on the line" . Their profession is way less deadly than construction, agriculture, taxi drivers, and much more that keep our society running. They choose to be cops.

      Huh, just looked it up and found that wow police get injured a lot: 3.8% chance of injury per year. (Calculated from: 14.6 deaths per 100,000, 108 fatal injuries, 28,740 other injuries.) Not sure what counts as an injury but median recovery was 9 days. https://www.usatoday.com/story/money/careers/2018/01/09/workplace-fatalities-25-most-dangerous-jobs-america/1002500001/ …

      Being a police officer is not "way less deadly" than driving a taxi or construction; from that source, it's about as deadly as either of those (though 2016 was a bad year for police deaths, so maybe it's usually "slightly less deadly"). Still way less deadly than logging omg.

      The logging fatality rate was 135.9 per 100,000 workers.

      Yea, my point is no one is thanking their blue collar folks for putting their lives on the line to provide our entire infrastructure of existence, so I like to point that out, as just thanking cops because their job is less safe kinda misses the point.

      Here's the chart I was referencing. Note your friendly neighborhood garbage collector is 3x more likely to die than a cop (who's 3x more likely than an average person) and they keep us from living in our own filth.pic.twitter.com/pfzWZVJ4va

          Okay, that's fair, 10.8 is legitimately way less than 17.8.
