Self Defense-common Sense Tips For Assault Prevention

Here are some common sense tips to help you avoid an assault, sexual assault or rape.
 Use an elevator instead of the stairs. I know you need the exercise but going down a stairway by yourself at night can be a scary thing without anyone around. It is prime ground for perverts.

 If confronted with an armed assailant on foot-TAKE OFF. Only 2% of attackers are armed anyhow. Chances are that his aim isn't that good. Your chances are better running away than staying and being assaulted or raped.

 If an assailant gets into your car with a gun-step on the gas, gun the car and CRASH THE CAR.

 If an assault from the front appears imminent YELL "Stop or Back Off." Most assailants are not up to resistance. They expect an easy time of it. Resistance throws most of them for a loop.

 ALWAYS carry some non lethal self defense weapons such as pepper sprays or stun guns. The bad guys use surprise as a weapon. You can use it too. Imagine an assailant grabs you from behind with his arm around your neck and you spray him with some pepper spray.

 ALWAYS carry a personal alarm and be ready to use it.

If you follow these tips you are going a long way to preventing an assault-perhaps even protecting yourself.

Please Note that even though pepper spray is legal in all 50 states, some states and cities have restrictions. Some states and cities have restrictions on stun guns. Check with your local police department. Literally thousands of police departments carry and use pepper spray and stun guns. Why wouldn’t you?
