Going Postal

1978 - Us Rep. Leo Ryan killed by followers of Jim Jones. 1968 - Sen. Robert Kennedy shot and killed by Sirhan Sirhan.
1954 - Alvin Bentley, Clifford Davis, Ben Jensen, George Fallon and Kenneth Roberts shot by Puerto Rican nationalists.
Now Google "Postal Workers Killed".
(Damn... that many get killed?)
Seems that being a Senator or Member of the House is a much safer federal occupation than working for the post office.

Well the post office is the ultimate common folk job so of course they are on the frontline. I don't think anyone knows who the hell their Senator really is until something happens. This time something happened.

Yeah... but politicians are pretty safe as far as federal jobs go.
Postal workers? Man... eff that.
