Would it have anything to do with police officers having training and tools that are specifically used to avoid injury and death?
It would be like saying swimming in a kiddie pool is more dangerous than scuba diving, because every year 400 kids drown in their backyard and only 80 scuba divers die per year.
Obviously scuba diving is more dangerous on paper, but those who partake in that activity have equipment and training specifically to not die.
if something dangerous is happening to a pizza delivery guy, its happening TO them, they do not have a choice
Cops can just decide "nah fuck that I'm not helping" like they did while those children were slaughtered at Uvalde
That's totally true as well.
Its untrue that US police are not obligated to intercede for your protection or safety?
Its untrue that US Police did not let over a dozen children get slaughtered while hanging out in the hallway, PLAYING ON THEIR PHONES?
Its untrue that a pizza delivery person who is suddenly violently accosted or involved in a traffic accident is helpless to remove themselves from the situation?
Please, tell me.
Edit: oops, I just realized I misread. Still gonna leave this here tho
