Safety Tips for Women & Teens

The elbow is the strongest point on your body. If you are close enough to use it, do!
If you are ever thrown into the trunk of a car, kick out the back taillights 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.
The three reasons women and teens are easy targets for random acts of violence are:

Lack of Awareness: You MUST know where you are & what's going on around you.

Body Language: Keep your head up, swing your arms, and stand straight up.

Wrong Place, Wrong Time: DON'T walk alone in an alley, or drive in a bad neighborhood at night.
Women and teens have a tendency to get into their cars after shopping, eating, working, etc., and just sit (talking on the phone, listening to the radio, etc). DON'T DO THIS! The predator will be watching you, and this is the perfect opportunity for him to get in 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 few notes about getting into your car in a parking lot, or parking garage:
 Be aware: look around you, look into 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. Most serial killers attack their victims by pulling them into their vans while the driver is attempting to get into his or her car.
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.
If you are alone, ALWAYS take the elevator instead of the stairs.  (Stairwells are horrible places to be alone and the perfect crime spot).
If the predator has a gun and you are not under his control, ALWAYS RUN!

The predator will only hit a running target 4 in 100 times. And even then, it most likely WILL NOT be a vital organ. RUN!
Women often times are 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.
