Ever been an airport cop Bruce? It can be a dangerous job like any other LE job. I have two very good friends who were airport cops and have arrested rapists, armed robbers (in the process of), vehicle thieves and a host of other criminals. There are often car chases with drunks and car thieves.

I know it is not nearly as risky as being an accountant but there is always a risk of death and serious injury when you are charged with making arrests and someone decides "I'm not being arrested today".
