If you pull out their rates of assault where they don't die, the job starts sounding a lot more dangerous, even if a lot of those "assaults" are bullshit.

Being a cop is genuinely dangerous, and the fact that it's not in the top ten most fatal jobs doesn't make it safe any more than Scottie Pippen not being one of the top ten greatest basketball players of all time makes him a mediocre player.
