This is Denmark not America, there is literally no risk to their life.

  Just because Denmark doesn't have the same gun laws, culture around using guns for self-defense, or prevalence of guns as the US does, it doesn't mean that Danish police face no risk when they raid someone's home. Anytime the cops raid someone's home, regardless of whether or not is it a legitimate raid of a legitimate criminal, it's a violent act and there's risk that the cops will be hurt or killed.

    Since 1945 12 cops have been killed in the line of duty (excluding traffic accidents), mostly when responding to a violent crime (trying to stop bank robberies lead to 6 of those fatalities).

    Do you have any danish stats to back up your claim?

    That’s such an American mentality. Here’s a short clip which might broaden your mind on possible ways to view how and when police should be using violence. https://www.reddit.com/r/BeAmazed/comments/1c0e24s/american_police_visit_scotland_for_deescalation/ https://www.reddit.com/r/BeAmazed/comments/1c0e24s/american_...
