FOR YOUR INFORMATION--SAFETY TIPS

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. Tip from Tae Kwon Do: The elbow is the strongest point on your body.
If you are close enough to use! it, do!

2. 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 preda! tor 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.

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'd walk 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 is another one *******

9. Another Safety Point: A woman 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. The !
Crying Baby theory was mentioned on America's Most Wanted this past
Saturday when they profiled the serial killer in Louisiana.

Maybe you'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. The world we live in has a lot of crazies in it and it's
better to be safe than sorry.
