FOR WOMEN, ON STAYING ALIVE

The elbow
is the strongest point on your
body. If you are close enough
to use it, do it! If you are ever
thrown in the trunk of a car.
Kick out the back tail lights
Stick your arm out of the hole,
and start waving like crazy.
The driver won't see you but everybody
else will. This has saved lives!
Three reasons women are easy targets
Lack of Awareness.
You MUST know where you are, &
what's going on around you.
Body Language
Keep your head up, swing your
arms, stand straight up.
Wrong Place, Wrong Time
DON'T walk alone in an alley,
or drive in a bad neighborhood
at night. Getting in to your car
AS SOON AS YOU GET IN YOUR CAR,
...
LOCK THE DOORS AND LEAVE Be aware,
look around you, ...
look in your car, at the passenger
side floor, and in the back seat.
If you are
parked next to a big van, enter
your car from the passenger door.
Look at the cars parked next to
you. If a male is sitting alone
in the seat nearest your car,
walk back into the mall, or work,
and get a guard/policeman to walk
back out with you. (Better paranoid
than dead.
ELEVATORS
ALWAYS take the elevator instead
stairs.
Do not get on an elevator if a
weirdo is already on.
(Of course, bad men don't always
look bad).
Do not stand
back in the corners of the elevator
be near the front, by the doors,
ready to get off or on.
If you get
on the elevator,
and the Boogie Man gets on the
next few floors, ...
get off when he gets on.
If the predator
has a gun
(and you're not under his control)
ALWAYS RUN!
Police only
make 4 of 10 shots, in range of
3-9 feet.
This is due to stress.
The predator
will only hit you (a running target)
4 in 100 times.
And even then, it will most likely
NOT be in a vital organ.
RUN, ... !!!
Tips to save your life
if you've gotten into a violent
situation
REACT IMMEDIATELY
If he abducts you in a parking
lot, and is taking you to an abandoned
area,
...
DON'T LET HIM GET YOU TO THAT
AREA.
If you're
driving, ...
crash your car while still going
5 mph.
If he's
driving, ...
find the right time, and stick
your fingers in his eyes.
He must watch the road, so choose
an unsuspecting time, and gouge
him.
It is your ONLY defense!!!
While he is in shock, GET OUT.
(This sounds gross, but the alternative
is your fault if you do not act.)
RESIST
Don't go along with him, run,
if you are able
DON'T EVER GIVE UP!
You DO NOT want to get to a crime
scene.
Always keep
your distance when walking past
strangers
GET A CELL
PHONE.
BREAK DOWNS
Avoid breakdowns,
...
by keeping your car in good working
order. If your car does break
down
LOCK YOUR DOORS. You better have
a cell phone to call for help.
If it's noon on a business day,
you may want to put on your hazards,
and walk to safety.
Physical
defenses we can use
The EYES,
are the most vulnerable part of
the body. Poke him there, HARD.
It may be your only window of
opportunity. The KNEES, Everyone's
knees are very vulnerable, and
a swift kick in the knees will
take anyone down. A cautionary
note about these things If you
do not do these things right the
first time, you are in trouble,
because it will only anger the
individual, and that anger will
be TAKEN OUT ON YOU. I'm not saying
don't attempt them (it may be
your only hope), but be forceful
when you do. If you are walking
alone in the dark (which you shouldn't
be), and you find him following/chasing
you Scream, "FIRE!"
not, "Help" People don't
want to get involved when people
yell "help", but "fire"
draws attention, because people
are basically nosy. RUN! Find
an obstacle, such as a parked
car, and run around it, like Ring
Around the Rosie. This may sound
silly, but it's SAVED LIVES.
Our world is not as safe as we
pretend,
and living in our fantasy worlds
WILL get us in trouble.
BE PREPARED TO ACT AND ACT HARD!!!
HAVE A PLAN
