“There is a difference between some hick sheriff’s department in New Mexico and the deputies who patrol San Antonio, a city bigger than Boston.”

Anyone, that puts a badge on and patrols a county, is putting their lives on the line. It doesn’t matter where they are.
Duh, the number of people killed at work, supporting their families , are a 100 times greater than the number of cops killed. One is no more important than the other.
