kreiderrider: allcops:I’d argue that COVID deaths + heart attacks + fatally mishandling firearms + crashing motorcycles + “training accidents” do not count as “officers killed in the line of duty. “COVID deaths - how many of those chuckleheads refused to get vaccinated or wear masks? Negligent suicide shouldn’t count as “killed in the line of duty.” That takes care of 77% of this list!”Inadvertent gunfire” sounds a lot like “accidentally killed because they or someone near them wasn’t following basic firearms safety. You know, like this cop. See also the “motorcycle crash” and “training accident” categories. The “line of duty” requires them to handle firearms, train, and drive their vehicles safely & responsibly. The dead ones didn’t.Heart attack = “killed in the line of duty”? Really? Can you think of any other job where if you had a heart attack & died at work people would say you were “killed in the line of duty?” Take all that away, and you’re left with just 103 cops “killed in the line of duty.” In a country with more than 800,000 cops. So about one in 10,000 killed “in the line of duty.” Showing us once again that being a cop is one of the safest professions out there. You want to talk dangerous jobs? Try roofing, or construction work, or farming. 82% of the dead cops on Amy’s “killed in the line of duty” list would arguably still be alive today if they had followed common-sense safety precautions and taken better care of their health. amy, my good bitch, you are from minnesota. your offices are literally in minneapolis, on a street that gave you front row seats to the uprising that happened in our city after george floyd was murdered by a fucking cop. and you thought that the intelligent thing to do would be to declare the week which contains the anniversary of his murder as bootlickers official week???? just. beyond comprehension. -- source link
