Learn How To Refuse To Be A Victim By Using Self Defense Products

In today’s world, it is important to learn how to refuse to be a victim by using self defense products. According to research and statistics by the Federal Bureau of Investigations, as of 2006 there is a murder committed every thirty one minutes, a forcible rape every six minutes and a robbery every one minute somewhere in the United States. This is alarming and should wake everyone up to the fact that no matter who you are or where you live it is necessary to protect yourself somehow.

There are many personal protection products that can help you if faced with an attacker. The best steps to take are to have a combination of items to ensure your personal safety. This way you are prepared no matter what. Having an electronic pocket whistle or personal alarm will bring attention to the situation if you are being threatened. This will often cause a potential attacker to flee the scene rather than continue an attack. It will also alert others that you are in need of assistance. People who sound an alarm receive fewer injuries, are found quicker and emergency personnel are able to assist them in a more timely manner. A personal alarm or whistle is the first line of defense. They are beneficial because you do not need to blow into it with your mouth, which may be near impossible when under attack. You simply need to press a button and a loud sound will be emitted. They are often small enough to fit on a key chain or belt loop, which means they are accessible when needed. You can also get larger alarms that also include a flashlight and can double as a doorjamb when at home. These multipurpose alarms are excellent gifts for those loved ones who live alone, must walk alone to and from work or school or anyone that you want to feel safer in their lives.

Another wise investment when putting together a personal protection kit is to have pepper spray. This is a non-lethal way to stop any attacker. Pepper spray will cause your attacker to immediately and involuntarily close their eyes, have a burning sensation in the eyes and on skin, and have temporary blindness, which will allow you the time needed to get away. Some sprays also have dye so that the perpetrator can easily be identified even if they are able to flee the scene before police arrive. It is available in different sizes and shapes to suit anyone’s needs. Containers as small as a ring or lip stick tube, keychain or canisters that attach to your belt, purse strap or easily fit into a handbag or back pack.

Taser guns and stun guns are becoming increasingly popular items to include in personal protection kits because they give the potential victim control over the situation and a non-lethal way to fight back. Each allowing you to debilitate an attacker by an electrical charge surging through their body, allowing you time to escape and find help.

One of the greatest things you can give yourself and your family is peace of mind and safety. Preparing for an emergency or an attack before you are faced with one can be the difference between life and death, between being a victim and refusing to be one. Having self defense products and knowing how to use them can help you ensure that you are not a victim.

Newark Police and the U of D Get Ready For School

I applaud our local law enforcement for planning for the upcoming school year and the return of college students to the University of Delaware in an effort to curb a spike in crimes and disturbances.  I am attaching a link to the article I just read talking about this topic – http://www.delawareonline.com/article/20090814/NEWS01/908140358/Newark–UD-police-get-ready-for-school. 

Law enforcement is critical in trying to curb the increase in crime, but the unfortunate truth is that they cannot be everywhere they are needed as a crime occurs.  We just don’t have enough protection in our communities.  Therefore, you, as parents and students, have the ultimate responsibility of making sure that you are prepared to protect yourself and your belongings while away from home.

Colleges are also responsible in keeping their campuses safe for students.  But, again, you are ultimately responsible for protecting yourself.  You have that right and should take the initiative to do so.  There are various products on the market to keep you and your belongings safe.  Let’s think about your dorm room.  Do you have valuables you need to protect while you are away from your room?  Maybe you need to hide some cash, your iPhone or maybe some jewelry.  You should consider Diversion safes.  Who would ever think you are hiding your possessions in a flower pot safe?

How should you protect yourself as you go from place to place on campus?  Personal Alarms, Pepper Spray and a Stun Gun are all viable options.

To check out all of our college safety products, please visit Protect Your Home and Family.  Just remember – You are responsible for your own safety.

College Safety Products – Back To School Specials

Hello Everyone,

It’s back to school time already.  My, where does the time go?  I have provided some campus safety tips and have also provided two (2) Back To School Specials for your loved ones that are heading to school for the first time or maybe heading back to finish up their hard earned degree.  Either way, make sure that they stay safe and out of harms way.

 

CAMPUS SAFETY TIPS

Street crime is on the increase in most large U.S cities. It’s also growing on campuses and in small communities. Schools and colleges that receive public funding are required to post the crime statistics at their campus. No college is immune to crime. In fact many crimes are more common on college campuses than off. So wherever you are, keep yourself and friends safe with an awareness of your surroundings. These campus safety tips will help you.

• When leaving your dorm or apartment, make sure that all doors and windows are locked – including the main building entry and exits.
• Keep an eye out for anyone who is loitering or hanging out around your home, campus, after school work or your car. College students are much more likely to be stalked.
• Check out around your car as you walk up to it. If there is a van parked on one side of your car get in on the other side.
• One campus had a series of attacks where the attacker would hide under vehicles and then slash the victim’s Achilles tendon with a knife. The victim was unable to run away. Check under the other cars as you walk up to your car.
• Don’t carry large sums of money.
• If possible, travel with another person. This is especially true after dark.
• Carry a personal alarm that will draw attention in an emergency and scare away an attacker.
• When carrying a purse or wallets, only place three or four one dollar bills placed inside. Credit cards, currency, driver’s license, and keys should be carried in a coat pocket or concealed, possibly in an inside zipped pocket. Other possible options include special security belts and stash pouches are available for this purpose.
• At night, travel on well-lighted and well-traveled streets. Avoid unlighted areas. Walk in the middle of the sidewalk and never loiter in deserted areas.
• Walk on the side of the street nearest to oncoming traffic. If accosted by someone in a car, run in the direction opposite of the way the car is headed.
• Be aware of people who approach asking for directions or the time of day; keep a polite but safe distance. One ploy that to be wary of is someone asking to use your cell phone to make an emergency call, but there doesn’t seem to be any emergency at hand.
• Men should consider carrying a second wallet containing a few one dollar bills and old expired credit cards, which are normally destroyed or discarded. If you are mugged, give the suspect the second wallet and take a mental note of a good physical description of the suspect.
• If you feel someone is following you, go to the nearest occupied residence or building and ask for assistance.
• If you are confronted with a dangerous situation, cry out for assistance. Yelling “FIRE! FIRE!” instead of “HELP!” will generally bring faster attention. WARNING: Just don’t do this in a crowded movie theater, night club or other area where it might cause panic.

When you get home, particularly after dark, don’t hang around at the entrance of your residence. Make a quick check for mail or newspapers, and go in right away. If you feel something is out of place, don’t go in, go to a friend or neighbor’s house and call for police assistance.

Ten People Who Should Use Pepper Spray

Pepper spray is not just for the great outdoorsman who is worried about being face to face with a bear. There are reasons for every person to think about pepper spray as a form of defense. Pepper spray is a non-lethal weapon that can be used to fend off any attacker. It is made from hot cayenne peppers. The ingredient that makes pepper spray effective is called OC, which stands for oleoresin capsicum. You can buy pepper spray with different concentrations of this ingredient. The types of spray with between two and ten percent concentration of OC will effectively incapacitate you but sprays with eighteen percent concentrations will incapacitate you faster and will be debilitating to the person who is sprayed by it, it’s affects will last for about 90 minutes without having permanent damage to the eyes. You can get sprays that also have indelible ink included so that your attacker will be easily identified even if they run.

Everyone should think about the benefits of having a pepper spray canister to protect them.

Campers for obvious reasons would be wise to get themselves some to protect them while in the wilderness from any threats that there may be. Wild animals who are hungry or menacing will be stopped in their tracks giving you time to reach safety and causing them to run away.

Law enforcement officers are usually equipped with pepper spray as it is a non-lethal way to get a perpetrator under control. Dog the Bounty hunter and others in his profession also use pepper spray rather than carrying guns. It is an effective way to apprehend a criminal without the risks that stun guns or a real gun would have of being fatal.

College Students are often in a position where they are at risk and pepper spray is an excellent way for them to be in control of their safety. Whether it is concerns during the biggest party of the year or worrying while walking home from studying late at the library pepper spray can ease their minds and give them a way to protect themselves.

Sons and Daughters. Kids want to be independent and to have their own lives but we live in a dangerous world. Whether it is the mean dog on your son’s paper route or the high school date that goes horribly wrong for your daughter, pepper spray can be an effective way to keep them safe, give you peace of mind, and let them be able to get out of a dangerous situation.

Nurses and Doctors. Recently a study came out that showed that 1 in 3 nurses are attacked by a patient at work. Some seriously injured because they were alone with the patient and had no defense. Pepper spray would certainly be a viable option to keep our health care staff safe and not cause permanent damage to the attacker.

Moms. Whether they are walking their toddler to the park or waiting in their seniors’ apartment for the great grand kids to stop by for a visit, moms should always feel safe. We need to know that our moms are safe and that they feel confident to lead an independent life. Pepper spray can give them some extra protection and give them peace of mind when their kids are young, and give the kids peace of mind when grown and off on their own.

Dads need protection too. There were an estimated 1,417,745 violent crimes nationwide in the year 2006. Over a million in just a year. That is almost 475 violent crimes for every hundred thousand people. This should tell you that no one is really safe without taking measures to protect themselves. Pepper spray is a convenient, safe, economical, and non-lethal way to feel more confident and capable to get away in any situation.

My Top Five Reasons For Using Personal Alarms To Protect Your Home and Family

In today’s world, personal safety is one of the biggest concerns that we face. Families and personal property are threatened constantly and we all need to find a way to be confident that we are protected from the dangers around us. While there are dozens of reasons to warrant the need for taking steps to feel safe here are five great reasons to invest in an economical and easy personal alarm for your family and home.

1. Peace of Mind. It is difficult for anyone to feel secure these days. Flipping through the channels you cannot ignore the fact that individuals and their property are violated on a daily basis. In 2007, over eleven million crimes were committed in the United States against people and their property. It is hard to feel safe with statistics like that but having items such as personal alarms can bring you some comfort in this crazy world. An alarm may not stop every crime but it certainly will deter most criminals from wanting to stick around and continue what they started. A personal alarm will draw attention to what is about to happen and usually cause the perpetrator to run away rather than be the center of attention in a quiet neighborhood. Just knowing that you have the ability to make a commotion, if you need to, can bring you and your family some peace of mind and comfort in any situation.

2. A Way to Get Help. While having a personal alarm may not stop all criminals from trying to commit a crime, it will provide you with a way to draw attention to the situation and give you an opportunity to get help from others. A personal alarm can alert others that you are in need of help and will give them notification to call for help. This can make all the difference in the world.  There are many different types of personal alarms available from ones that simply emit a loud noise to draw attention to ones that will allow emergency crews to find you that are accurate to within a few meters or feet of the location. Allowing you to get help quickly.

3. Time. A criminal is going to be shocked by the noise and attention of a personal alarm going off. This can give you time to react while they are planning how to handle the situation. You will have a much greater chance of being able to defend yourself, get out of danger, and find help when needed. The critical few seconds that are provided by this can give you an opportunity to escape, protect yourself, and scare the criminal off rather than possibly being at their mercy. It can allow you to make your next move before they get a chance to make theirs.

4. Personal Alarms can save your life. The world today can be a scary place. Lives have been saved because of personal alarms. The response time of emergency personnel is much quicker when an alarm is activated. A man who was swarmed by a group of teenagers received help in less than six minutes thanks to the personal alarm he activated. He received only minor injuries in the attack as opposed to the thousands of stories each year of people being seriously or fatally injured in similar incidents where there was no alarm used.

5. Your Family’s health and safety. Whether you are worried about a family member who has poor health and may need emergency medical attention or a young adult walking to their college dorm after a night of studying at the library, personal alarms can protect your family from any unexpected incident and provide you and them with confidence, comfort and safety at all times. Their lives are important to you and a personal alarm can make sure that they have help anytime from anything.
