Don't get me wrong as I think most cops are 'dom kings' in uniforms..Evil little power hungry boys with small ummm ego's. But... I wonder how many policeman were shot at that didn't make this list?? How many harmed, or shot at?? To make this a fair statistic it would have to include assaults against cops, too. Or attempted murders.. Then you would have to hold that list up to the people being arrested and harmed (probably huge)..
Hmm I got curious (tis the Libra in me :-) and looked it up..
FBI 2012 stats show
