Comparing direct occupational hazard (accidents and injuries) to risk of being targeted for assassination is wildly disingenuous and misleading.

replace ‘journalists’ with ‘students’ in the above tweet. Still ok with that ‘hot take’?

Roofers? Hahaha. You’re conflating occupational hazard with workplace violence, which is a non sequitur.

Why, did someone call commercial fishermen and roofers "the enemy of the people"?
