Dangerous Jobs
I couldn't find my old post about dangerous jobs so I started another.
It seems to me the most dangerous job in America being a Rapper. They are getting shot down and killed every week it seems.

and they have the dumbest names :shock:

Rapper Nipsey Hussle, who was shot dead just moments after meeting fans outside his clothing store in LA, was due to meet police today to discuss gang violence, it has been revealed.
The 33-year-old Grammy nominee was gunned down in Los Angeles just moments after posing for photos with fans and tweeting that 'having strong enemies is a blessing'.
Born Ermias Asghedom, the rapper was among three people shot outside the Marathon Store on Sunday afternoon at around 3.20pm.
On Sunday night, LA Police Commissioner Steve Soboroff tweeted that he and LAPD Chief Michel Moore were due to meet with Hussle and Roc Nation representatives to discuss gang violence today.
He wrote at 8.43pm: 'We (@LAPDChiefMoore and I ) were meeting , at the request of @NipseyHussle with him and @rocnation tomorrow at 4pm to talk about ways he could help stop gang violence and help us help kids. I'm so very sad.'
Police have not indicated if the meeting had anything to do with his death.

I saw that.
Like cRappers I would mark it down to lifestyle, personal choices and their culture which is a failure.
That may sound raycist but I consider it realist YMMV.3 -
Re: Ferguson protestors- if you have been engaged in criminal acts with other criminals, why is anyone surprised that some of your friends decided to whack you? How many were getting killed BEFORE the Michael Brown circus, and has that rate changed? 0 -
I would say working for the Clinton's would be high on the list. Your chance of turning up missing or dead by committing suicide by shooting yourself in the back of the head multiple times would be pretty high if you did something they didn't approve of. 0 -

I have to agree with Smitty500mag . Although working for the Clintons needs to be expanded to having anything that may endanger them will get you dead.
A couple others might be in the lumber industry or the Alaskan crab business.
Just one more would be trying to survive in a mothers womb these days. Abortion is a growing business. All to many come out in pieces.0 -
Rappers killing each other?????
Lets bring back the saturday night specials.

shot, pearl handles and cheap engraving.
We could sell a load of them.

Logging. 0 -
The job's not dangerous, it's a lifestyle they lead that is dangerous. Not one of them has been shot because they're rappers that kept their nose clean 0 -

Yeah but if you do what your boss tells you to do in any profession you won't have any problems including working for the clintons.
So really working for the clintons is not a dangerous job. Not doing the job like they want you to do it, is dangerous0 -
Just folks being folks. 0 -
Commercial fisherman have the highest mortality rate in the normal workplace. Most rock or hip hop musicians die from drug overdose or competition issue. Folks trying to earn a regular living earn a more honorable demise. My hats off to loggers and other hard working dudes including truckers and real dangerous traditional workers.
God bless the workers.0 -
Saw millers and tree climbers have one of the highest Worker's comp rates.
Fellow fell across a big circle saw not far from me, DRT, sad times.0 -
Even going to a memorial service or whatever is dangerous.

One person has been stabbed and 19 were injured after violence broke out at a memorial for rapper Nipsey Hussle outside the Los Angeles store where he was shot dead a day earlier.
Scores of fans were holding a vigil at the Marathon Clothing store in the South Los Angeles neighborhood on Monday night when the disturbance occurred.
A Los Angeles Fire Department spokeswoman said they had received a report of a possible shooting or stabbing.
Dramatic footage showed the moment a stampede broke out as terrified fans fled across the parking lot where the memorial was being held.
At least two members of the crowd were critically injured and one injury was reportedly from a car hitting a pedestrian.
Well it looks like he was shot because he was a rat for the LAPD against his gang the rollin 60's Crips.0 -
Dangerous jobs Sam? Ever had/heard of any of those? 3 -

A few,
I worked in a sawmill and I worked for a peckerwood logging operation that did select cut timbering mostly for trees to turned into veneer.
I was a roofer for a while.
I did some other stuff too but it never paid all that good
These Rappers though they get shot on a daily basis it seems. I am surprised anyone would want to be one, that and the music sux really bad.0 -
Yep, in an old family sawmill at an early age, shafts, pulleys, belts, unguarded blades, piles of timber everywhere. The "safety warning" for the mill came from my great grandfather and uncle "...pay attention boy or you're gonna get hurt". That said it all. Working hayfields baling, combining, etc at 12 years old, PTO shafts, old tractors with crap for brakes, worn out bailers, etc. Same admonishment. Funny thing, came thru those years with hardly a scrape. My later career, well, slightly different story. The rappers, thugs and wanna be pharmaceutical sales folks I spent much of my adult life shoving into body bags, just oxygen thieves with a very limited life expectancy. 0 -
It would be the military hands down on the most casualties.

"Rangers," they do a lot of KP duty, don't they? I hear that can be really hazardous.0 -
Lol, I?m not going there Ken. I know of one guy-even referred to in a post as ?grey man?- who?s liable to sneak up on us both at the same time! 0 -

Logging is the second most dangerous job in America. I am not a professional but I have cut down a lot of big trees. Whacked 80 or 90 trees over 90 feet tall to get the view from my log cabin.
And one day, I dropped the big pine where I wanted, I began walking downhill, the tree began to slide, and I got caught under it and it landed on my right knee. Broke the thigh bone, the femur, right in the knee. That was a bad day.
Dangerous job.
Right now I have the 9th most dangerous job, truck driver. I don't believe it is as dangerous as they say, not for the driver. I read up on a lot of truck wrecks, "Truck Hits Volvo." Yeah there were 3 fatalities, the three girls in the Volvo. Truck driver walked away.
I don't see this job as being that dangerous for the truck driver.0 -
Skidded logs for awhile. Better keep on your toes doing that. Come way to close a couple times. I'm to big for the job of tunnel rat , but wouldn't want that job either . Come to think about it there are more than just a few jobs that can endanger your old age pension.
Somewhat ironic is that mostly all my worst medical issues today are from medical errors, so I have to add patient.0 -
Going to a cRappers funeral is dangerous too...............
4 People shot, a riot, cop cars destroyed and people beaten and trampled.

Four people were gunned down, one fatally, on Thursday in California as fans celebrated the life of rapper Nipsey Hussle following his shooting death at 33 last month.
The victims aged between 30 and 50 were three black males and a woman who was also black, LAPD stated as they said about the South LA incident around 103rd and Main streets: 'We must stop this senseless violence.'
Cops said the suspects were in a gray Hyundai as a procession moved through the South LA area around 6.25pm on the day of his memorial event at Downtown LA's Staples Center.
The incident occurred about a 15 minute drive away from late music star's Marathon clothing store where he was killed in March.3 -
