No it's not, on avg the thing that kills most cops is getting run over on the highway. A cop that lives in gangland is still more likely to die by car accident.

    You didn't read your own study, it's highlights that police deaths in the line of duty have gone down. This means it's actually gotten SAFER to be a cop. Furthermore, if. You look at all the metrics shootings are the least threatening thing. Literally thier own health lifestyle is what kills them.

    Yes it's safer but gunshots are now higher than auto?

    Also everyone's "health lifestyle" eventually kills everyone. The more you work the higher the percentage your death will be "on the clock" and therefore an on-the-job death.

    Firearms-related fatalities have claimed the lives of 47 officers in 2023,

    Traffic-related fatalities decreased 27% with 37 deaths in 2023

    47 Firearm Deaths > 37 Auto Death
