Crucial Safety for today and every day
« on: October 17, 2006, 08:01:34 AM »
 
 Crucial Safety

Because of recent abductions
 In daylight hours, refresh yourself 
Of these things to do in an emergency situation...
 
This is for you,
 
And for you to share
 
With your wife,
 
Your children,
 
Everyone you know.
 
After reading these 9 crucial tips,
 
Forward them to someone you care about.
 
It never hurts to be careful
 
In this crazy world we live in.
 
 
 
 
 
1.  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
 
In New Orleans.
 
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. 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 gun to your head,
 
And tell you where to go.
 
AS SOON AS YOU GET INTO YOUR CAR,
 
LOCK THE DOORS AND LEAVE.
 
 
 
a. 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.
 

************* Here it is *******
 
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.
 
 
 
Please pass this on and
 
DO NOT
 
open the door
 
for a crying baby ----
 
This
 
e-mail should probably
 
be taken seriously because
 
the Crying Baby theory
 
was mentioned on
 
America's Most Wanted
 
one Saturday
 
when they profiled
 
the serial killer in Louisiana.
 
 
 
 
 
I'd like you
 
to forward this
 
to all the women you know.
 
It may save a life.
 
A candle is not dimmed
 
by lighting another candle.
 
I was going to send this to the ladies only,
 
but guys,
 
if you love your mothers,
 
wives,
 
sisters,
 
daughters, etc.,
 
you may want to
 
pass it onto them, as well.
 
 
 
Send this
 
to any woman you know
 
that may need
 
to be reminded
 
that the world we live in
 
has a lot of crazies in it
 
and it's better to be safe
 
than sorry.

Yeah, good advice, but what's up with the short lines.  What have you got, a 2 inch monitor?

Good tips, but the crying baby part is an urban legend:

In New Orleans after dark one time a guy came up and tried to get me to step into an alley for a "shoe shine". When I politely said "no thank you sir", he said something like "no, you really need one" grabbed my arm and back of my jacket with both hands and tried to spin me into the alley where two more black guys were semi-hiding up against a wall. This was in full view of a crowd of people who could care less.

I swept his feet, he let me go, when he caught his balance and started to come for me, he looked up straight into the muzzle of my SIG SAUER. I won't repeat on this board what I told the three of them, but they were given a choice between leaving or dying.  They left running.

Walk softly, be polite, carry where legal.
