In terms of statistics being a cop is pretty safe?

In terms of statistics being a cop is pretty safe? So many other occupations will lead to an early death? Page 4, and 5 on: F http://www.bls.gov/news.release/pdf/cfoi.pdf I don't want to argue with anyone, but I've always felt if police officers were given better training, and maybe required a bit more than a high school diploma, say an AA in psychology; we wouldn't have these posts? By better training, I mean less paramilitary emphasis? I'll admit, I'm tired of the endless pullovers--for no reason other than driving an old car, or out past 10:30 p.m. I'm tired of the Revenue Collection(that's not their fault! We need to tie income to violations in the United States, or lower fees altogether?) A rich man get a ticket--he tell the wife at dinner. A poor man gets a ticket; it just might be the last straw? I'm just tired of being scared when they are around! I don't think things are going to change for a long time. All I rely on is dash cams at present. No need for spending more than 20 bucks at Amazon? Those cheap ones work, and last a long time. Buy two--in case one breaks? I had on going over a year now. I haven't been pulled over since? Maybe I don't do out like I used to, or they see that little screen flip down?
