Nice vid Sarge. There are some bad apples in every profession. But remember, these are people who wake up EVERY DAY and go to work knowing that it may be the last time they see their child, kiss their spouse or live a "normal" life. I certainly couldn't do it. Thanks to them.

Sure, it's more dangerous than my job, but cops don't even break into the top ten most dangerous jobs. Fishermen are ten times more likely to die on the job than cops. There are a bunch of different lists out there, but most of them point to fishermen, logger, farmers, construction workers, garbage collectors, taxi drivers, pilots, roofers, and miners all having more dangerous jobs than cops and firefighters.
