[quote=jpinpb]How many of you almost got shot at yesterday at work? How many of you would like to have the kind of job where you don’t know which day you could be shot at?
Officer dies while serving subpoena
Sanders, who was the city’s police chief from 1993 to 1999, said the tragedy is a reminder of how officers put their lives on the line each day. “They perform acts of bravery literally every day,” he said. “Every day they go off to work, their families know there’s a chance they might never come home.”

Really sad.[/quote]

That particular (section 8) complex has been the site of the murder of an early morning newspaper carrier and a young pizza deliveryman. A newborn baby was also found in one of its dumpsters.

Ironically, many police officers love patrolling this beat.

So very sad.

See for yourself this is where my facts came from:

http://lgcr.sco.ca.gov/Default.aspx

Check City of SD and try to find a firefighter with an income below $100K (most were 130 to 150K) or a cop above $100K (most were between 80 and 95K)

Sorry another strawman argument from you. I live in my neighborhood because of the money I made in the private sector not in RE. I could not afford to buy here based upon a single RE income. Most of the realtors who own in my community are part of two income households with the other being not RE related.

Lastly, we both know a firefighter could afford to live here if they wanted to just like several other firefighters and cops I know who already live here. They are very easy to pick out. They are the 55 year old guys working in their gardens, washing their cars, waxing their surfboards and enjoying an early retirement while the 75 year realtors drive by tryiny to earn a living because they can never afford to retire. Sarcasm right back at you;)

My coworker, a maintenance worker, fell through the roof and died last year and I believe his maintenance job is much more dangerous than police work. Of course, no body except his relatives and my coworkers know about this.

Here is the list of the jobs that are more dangerous than police:
pilots, truck and bus drivers, captains, crane operators, sailors, construction laborers, carpenters, roofers, operating engineers, iron and steel workers, farmers and ranchers, construction managers, executives, retail sales, cashiers, sales representatives, door-to-door sales, real estate workers, telecommunications installers, mechanics, computer repairers….
