Time To Protect Yourself From Crime Or Violence - Don't Be A Victim

Law abiding citizens should always be cautious about surroundings.  We are now seeing the break down of civil society in many blue states and cities though bad things can happen anywhere.  What we see happening with flash mob burglaries is the result of tolerating BLM and Antifa Terrorists rioting, looting and burning down cities.  Since they have gotten away with serious crimes, it will encourage them to commit even more crimes.  So, it is time to take even more precautions when outside our homes.  

Older people in particular are targets for thugs.  You could be in a store or restaurant that is attacked by a flash mob as is occurring in many cities.  This won't stop until city and state governments crack down on crime.  Since that may not happen, it is best that you diminish the chance of being a target for robbery and or violence.  Don't be a victim of these crimes.  Don't be in the wrong place at the wrong time.  Demand that stores and restaurants have private security if they want your business.  

Always be aware of your surroundings.  Don't put yourself in a situation that would make you easy pickings.  Don't be in outside dining that is very accessible to parking lots and the quick get away.  It is not a good idea to wear expensive jewelry unless you are in a very secure location.  Women should  not carry purses that would make them a target for robbery.  The reality is that all you really need is the credit card you will be using for any purchases you are making.  Lock a purse in the trunk of your car.  Always park in very well lit places.  Don't go to stores or restaurants in or near high crime areas.  

People often like to take walks.  Not the best idea unless the area is patrolled by cops or security.  As we get older, I don't like driving at night.  Women especially should not be driving at night alone.  I prefer to live in gated communities and or buildings with security. Sadly, we may get to the point where it is necessary to carry a gun for self defense.  Don't think crime can't happen to you because it is happening to thousands of people in the United States every year.   We can't take safety for granted any more.  Since many cops are quitting, calling 911 will not guarantee police protection.  We have to be proactive to prevent a tragedy from happening to any of us.  Let's go Brandon!
