I don't know the world stats on this but here in the US, being a police officer has the lowest probabiity of injury of all blue collar jobs. Thirty years ago, they were comfortably in the middle of the pack and sixty years ago they were in the top five. Could this be because they are paying less attention to our civil liberties when they perform their function? I don't like the idea of any law officer carrying a weapon when the civilians don't have one and yes, when the injuries of the unarmed apprehended are statistically astronomically higher and more severe than the armed officials making the arrests, it is a strong indication that there is less police 'work' than vicimization.
