Actually, for reported ND's that I heard about in WA last year? Cops 3, CPL holder 1. Cops have more manditory training every year than an state requires for a carry license, yet, in a state with no manditory training for our CPL (and there are almost 400,000 active CPL's in WA, and an unknown number of people that carry (legally) without a license) there was one reported NG discharge. I do not know how many LEO's are in WA but I would bet it is less than 400,000

In 2008,the State of Washington had 174 sworn Police Officers for every 100,000 residents. See this survey:

in the District of Columbia (722), Louisiana
(405), New Jersey (389), New York
(341), Illinois (321), and Wyoming (317)
(figure 4).
In contrast, there were fewer

Utah (175), Oregon (177), Vermont
(178), Kentucky (183), Minnesota (185),
West Virginia (186), Alaska (189),
