Safety tips for our times
« on: February 07, 2017, 06:50:48 PM »
1. Tip from Tae Kwon Do :

 

The elbow is the strongest point on your body.

If you are close enough to use it, do!

 

 

 

2. Learned this from a tourist guide.

 

If a robber asks for your wallet and/or purse, DO NOT HAND IT TO HIM.

Toss it away from you.... Chances are that he is more interested

in your wallet and/or purse than you, and he will go for the wallet/purse..

RUN LIKE MAD IN THE OTHER DIRECTION!

 

 

 

3. If you are ever thrown into the trunk of a car,

 

kick out the back tail lights and stick your arm out the hole and start waving like crazy..

The driver won't see you, but everybody else will.

 This has saved lives.

 

 

 

4. Don't sit in your car!

 

Women have a tendency to get into their cars after shopping, eating, working, etc.,

and just sit (doing their checkbook, or making a list, etc. DON'T DO THIS!)

The predator will be watching you, and this is the perfect opportunity for him to

get in on the passenger side, put a weapon to you, and tell you where to go.

AS SOON AS YOU GET INTO YOUR CAR, LOCK THE DOORS AND LEAVE.

If someone is in the car with a gun to your head DO NOT DRIVE OFF,

Repeat: DO NOT DRIVE OFF!

 

Instead gun the engine and speed into anything, wrecking the car.

Your Air Bag will save you.

If the person is in the back seat they will get the worst of it.

As soon as the car crashes bail out and run.

It is better than having them find your body in a remote location.

 

 

 

5. A few notes about getting into your car in a parking lot, or parking garage:

 

A.) Be aware: look around you, look into your car, at the passenger side floor , and in the back seat.

B.) If you are parked next to a big van, enter your car from the passenger door.

Most serial killers attack their victims by pulling them into their vans while the

women are attempting to get into their cars.

 

C.) Look at the car parked on the driver's side of your vehicle, and the passenger side.

If a male is sitting alone in the seat nearest your car, you may want to walk back into the mall,

or work, and get a guard/policeman to walk you back out.

 

IT IS ALWAYS BETTER TO BE SAFE THAN SORRY. (And better paranoid than dead.)

 

 

 

6. ALWAYS take the elevator instead of the stairs.

 

Stairwells are horrible places to be alone and the perfect crime spot.

(This is especially true at NIGHT!)

 

 

 

7. If the predator has a gun and you are not under his control, ALWAYS RUN!

 

The predator will only hit you (a running target) 4 in 100 times; and even then,

it most likely WILL NOT be a vital organ. RUN, Preferably in a zig -zag pattern!

 

 

 

8. As women, we are always trying to be sympathetic:

 

STOP

It may get you raped, or killed.

Ted Bundy, the serial killer, was a good-looking, well educated man, who ALWAYS played

on the sympathies of unsuspecting women. He walked with a cane, or a limp, and often

asked 'for help' into his vehicle or with his vehicle, which is when he abducted his next victim.

 

 

 

9. Another Safety Point:

 

Someone just told me that her friend heard a crying baby on her porch the night before last, and she called the police because it was late and she thought it was weird. The police told her 'Whatever you do, DO NOT open the door..'

 

The lady then said that it sounded like the baby had crawled near a window, and she was worried that it would crawl to the street and get run over. The policeman said, 'We already have a unit on the way, whatever you do, DO NOT open the door.' He told her that they think a serial killer has a baby's cry recorded and uses it to coax women out of their homes thinking that someone dropped off a baby. He said they have not verified it, but have had several calls by women saying that they hear baby's cries outside their doors when they're home alone at night.

 

10. Water scam!

 

If you wake up in the middle of the night to hear all your taps outside running or what you think is a burst pipe, DO NOT GO OUT TO INVESTIGATE! These people completely turn on all your outside taps so that you will go out to investigate and then attack.

 

Stay alert, keep safe, and look out for your neighbors!

All sounds good accept the kicking out the tail lights part. Most cars have solid metal behind the lights....but a lot of newer cars do have an emergency pull cable to release the trunk latch.

IMO he waits way to long to go to the hand on the weapon location.  I've been at gas stations late at night and with a head on a swivel, the very first approach is me squaring up with strong eye contact and hand just under the shirt while giving some commands.
Kids today don't know how easy they have it. When I was young, I had to walk 9 feet through shag carpet to change the TV channel.

I heard a good suggestion for vacations....keep an old license and expired credit cards in an old wallet with about $30 in cash in it....keep your actual wallet with your main stash of cash in a different pocket. If you get mugged you can hand over the wallet with the old cards etc. They will look to see that there is cash and cards but not check the expiration dates, etc.

There are situations where I wholeheartedly agree. I've used the hand on gun first and stop with verbal commands first techniques. Heck, one time I didn't say a word, just drew my gun and prepared myself to pull the trigger. It seems to me that article is written for the situations where people attempt to get close with a ruse before turning violent.
