Abduction Precautions for Women
We can now add to the list of victims the retired 77 yr. old TCU
professor from Ft Worth whose body was found
last week in Oklahoma--and
the 11 yr.old in Sarasota, FL. Because of
these 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 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!
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.
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).
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 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
baby crying outside their doors, when they're
home alone at night. |
