Safety for girls - not a joke

>> Women.... In light of the recent kidnapping and now

>>info for your own
safety. Things women should know to stay safe:
>>
>>
>>
>> Please take the time to read these pointers. There may

>>
>>
>>
>>
>>
>> After reading this, forward it 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 it !
>>
>>
>>
>>
>>
>> 2. If a robber asks for your handbag, DO NOT HAND IT TO
>>HIM. Toss it away from you.... he is probably more interested in
>>your
>>handbag than you and he will go for the
handbag. RUN LIKE MAD IN
>>THE
>>OTHER DIRECTION!
>>
>>
>>
>>
>>
>> 3. If you are ever thrown into the boot of a car: Kick
>>out the back tail lights and stick your arm through the hole and
>>start
>>waving. 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 cheque
>>book,
>>or making a list).
>>
>> DON'T DO THIS! A predator could be watching you, and
>>this is the perfect opportunity for him to get in on the passenger
>>side,
>>and attack you.
>>
>> AS SOON AS YOU GET INTO
YOUR CAR, LOCK THE DOORS AND
>>LEAVE.
>>
>>
>>
>>
>>
>> 5. A few notes about getting into your car in a car
>>park: A.) Be aware: look around you, look into your car, at the
>>passenger side floor, and check the back seat.
>>
>> B.) If you are parked next to a big van, enter your car
>>from the passenger door. Most attackers surprise 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 shop, 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 lift instead of the stairs.
>>Stairwells are horrible places to be alone and the perfect crime
>>spot
>>
>>
>>
>> 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!
>>
>>
>>
>> 8. As women, we are always trying to be sympathetic:
>>STOP IT! 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
>>babies'
>>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.
