I have data only back to 2005 so that will have to do. I have included the data suggest police were shot, stabbed, strangled or otherwise murdered. Using the same source, I show that just for police murdered by gunfire, 2014 is the third safest year since as recently as 2005.

When you include police murdered by means other than a firearm, 2014 is still only the third safest year since 2005.

When you look at police deaths by all causes, a surprisingly large number of officers die in car accidents and motorbike accidents or were run down by vehicles.

@ChristchurchCC Deputy Mayor is clueless about the criminal justice system

In responding to demands for police to crack down on windscreen washers, some of whom intimidate motorists to pay, the deputy mayor of Christchurch showed a cultured ignorance of youth courts. She has never read newspaper reports that show that youth court defendants are never named and their convictions are not held against them as adults. Furthermore, she is unaware of the spent convictions law in New Zealand that expunges most convictions after seven years, especially petty convictions.
