Whatever you do for a living, when is the last time you lost a close coworker due to normal rigors of the job?
Matter of perspective, not sure I could give any example that wouldn't be more or less invidious.
Police and armed services in the USA seem sentimentally -- which is to say unreasonably -- exalted over other professions. Sometimes to the point of cultish adoration.

Mostly turns on what one thinks is honorable.
Of course. I've know a lot of military folks, walked through airports in uniform and experienced the "adoration". Many of my comrades didn't care for it, don't ask for it and find it weird. However people do it because they have no other way to offer their feeling of relief that it's you going, not them. People who intentionally go into harms way to rescue people or make them safe do so for different reasons, but the outcome is the same.
Do you have more respect for a dog for the blind than just a pet? I do. Maybe it's wrong but that's just how it is. It has to do with the role, the benefit society gets from that role being performed and sometimes the dangers of doing that role. Yeah you could say a person cleaning your sewer is playing a vital role, and they are, but that's a job.
Didn't happen, not sure how that relates.
There are a dozen or so occupations more dangerous than being a police officer, uniformed armed services doesn't even sniff the top 25 most hazardous..
The emphasis in danger is misplaced; honor tells, but varies from place to place amd time to time. Honorabilty is contingent, not inherent.
I guess I miss the point. Who is requiring a show of respect?
My parents taught me to respect my elders and to honor my grandparents. Why are these people any more honorable or deserving of respect than anyone else?
There are a number of posters who go bonkers whenever the police or the milotary come in for criticism. The critics are usually called haters and traitors.
You've been doing it yourself the past.few days.
The same Deepstate that was pushing Russiagate and supposedly fighting against Trump are now pushing the pro-war narrative against Iran
The same Deepstate labels Soleimani a terrorist
What makes all you Trump supporters think that they are telling you the truth now?
Why the flip flop? Why the selective hearing?

These guys need visuals and to keep their rants under ten minutes, preferably five. I rarely watch any of these webcam armchair generals blithering in their basements.
Maybe the longer this Coronavirus hoax/scam gets dragged and people start getting fed up, maybe that's what it will take to motivate people to wanna watch these type of WAKE DA UP videos![]()
There has never been a better time for Nationalism than the past 5-10 years
You care or else you would not post that you don't care.
I'm get to that video but first I want to watch Mad Max
Oh not not your cliche bull again... lol you ing .
If there was a way to express what eats me on the inside and vent my frustrations, this video does it.
We didn't need that video to know you are frustrated
Why are you unable to express your thoughts without the aid of a youtube video nobody will watch? What do you really think is going on?
TGY is a magpie, he doesn't give own takes.
To All The Police and Military...

police have long-time, well-known inclination to much more domestic violence than the general public
