Hello to All, thanks for your support, words of encouragement, and critical analysis, it is greatly appreciated. To you and yours from the team here at Preventative Measures, Bahamas Safety NET Kids, and Island Martial Arts, I want to wish you a very Merry Christmas and a Blessed New Year.
The following suggestions are recommended not just for this time of the year, but all the time.
Trust Your Gut - we all have a built in alarm system that sends alerts to us when something just is not right. So if you are approached by a stranger and even it is someone you know / or arrive home and things do not look normal withdraw yourself from the situation. Better safe than sorry!
Travel in Groups - when working late / attending events / shopping etc. 2 heads are always better than one, in fact the more the merrier. The chance of you being selected are less likely if you are in a group.
Vehicular Maintenance - Keep your car in good working condition. If you get a flat in an isolated area drive to a 24 hour operation and call someone / police. If it is late and the vehicle stops moving, remain in the car and call for assistance / inclusive of the police.
Cell Phone Use - Keep your cell properly charged at all times, put emergency numbers and reliable family member and friends on speed dial. Develop emergency codes to alert persons that you are being followed or need help now.
Party Time - If you are the designated driver do your best to keep sober and be alert,(I will have enough fun for the 2 of us, that is what friends are for) If end up being left alone on the drive home, call someone who can be on the phone with you until you are safely inside your home. Also have them call you back 10 - 15 minutes later. This also applies if you are coming to work early or leaving late.
While Driving - Always drive with all doors locked and be alert to your surroundings. If you feel that you are being followed do not stop your car or go directly home. Go to nearest 24 hour operation (police station / gas station / laundry mat etc.) Also sound your horn in an effort to draw attention to yourself, do speed just keep driving.
Armed Robbery Response - If being robbed of money / jewelry / car etc. let the robber have everything, do not look them in their face, and be as calm as possible, offering no resistance.
Physical Assault - If you or a loved one become the direct target of aggression where the person is trying to abduct, rape, or hurt you....., FIGHT LIKE HELL!
Improvised Weapons - Keys, shoes, flashlight, pens, cell phones, laptops, belts, umbrella, bags, etc. Targeting eyes, mouth, nose, throat, ears, genitals, knees and shins.
PRAY - Learn how to pray before - protection from evil, during - strength to over come evil and after - deliverance from evil.
Stay Safe, Stay Strong
Be Safe, Be Strong
