Few police have ever been shot at

Forty-two were killed with handguns in 2005; 8 were killed with other
guns.

50 police out of how many hundred thousand? More dangerous being a
farmer.

That was the number killed, not the number shot at. Most criminals don't
hit
what they're aiming at.

And how many farmers had near misses?

I don't know. How many farmers wear blue jeans?
