That's true, but it definitely isn't the whole picture. A group of people trained and equipped to deal with attackers can face more of them and have fewer deaths than another group of people who are regularly around violence without the same tools for defense. That's not to defend their narrative, and I wouldn't be surprised of bartenders were under higher threat, but that stat alone is not enough to show that it is true.
