Crime is an Unfortunate Reality
Everywhere!
Big
cities, small towns, high income, low income, even rural communities. Meth labs are hidden
in rolling hills of small town areas - soon meth addicts are
breaking into homes and hijacking cars where violent crime were
virtually
unheard of only a year ago.
RAPES...
In 2006, there were an estimated 92,455 forcible rapes
reported to law enforcement.
The highest percentage of rape is in the Northeast. July is
typically when the greatest number of rapes occur.
ROBBERIES...
Nationwide in 2006, there were an estimated 447,403
robbery offenses.
The highest percentage of these were in the South. 44.5% of the
robberies occurred on the streets, 14.3% occurred in homes.
ASSAULT...
Nationwide, there were an estimated 860,853 aggravated
assaults during 2006.
Firearms were used for 18.1% of the assaults,
knives
or cutting instruments 15.8%, other weapons (clubs, blunt
objects, etc.) 29% and personal weapons (hands, fists, feet,
etc.) accounted for 20.1% of the assaults.
CAR JACKINGS...
There are around 38,000 car jackings each year. Approximately
75% of the victims faced a weapon. About 63% of carjacking
incidents occurred within 5 miles of the victim's home,
including 17% that occurred at or near the home... sometimes in
their own driveway. Only 4% occurred more than 50 miles from the
victim's home.
Emergencies can occur anywhere,
and preparedness matters
Think of Hurricane Katrina in New Orleans. Think
of the flooding and tornadoes in the Midwest. Think of the
wildfires in California. God forbid you are ever caught there as a
homeowner, worker or tourist. But if you were thrown out on to
the street to fend for yourself and protect your family, you'd
be much better off equipped with a
Taser,
stun gun
or at least
MACE
in your pocket
Most people are "under-protected"
and admit that "they ought to do something about it…"
Well, do something about it. Get yourself a
Stun Gun Emergency Flashlight to
keep in your truck or car. Most families probably need two.
Small businesses such as trucking companies or security services might
might need
twenty... If they are not provided by your employer, ask or
provide your own. Don't wait until it is too late.
Key chain pepper spray
should be a staple item carried by every woman and every teen
age girl… The
Child Protection Kit are a must for homes with toddlers…
Every homeowner needs safes to hide valuables.
Hidden safes that look like cans of soda, beer or soup… even a simple, complete,
Home Security System
would benefit any homeowner or apartment dweller. Do you have
yours?
The long haul truck driver, delivery van driver
or traveling salesman: they need a security product for their
car, a
portable door alarm for their hotel or motel room door.
Parents need
nanny-spy-cams
and
voice intercom systems.
Guard Alaska
Bear Repellant Spray should be on the packing list for every camper, hiker or hunters....
The
NapZapper,
an over-the-ear alarm that awakens a drowsy driver should be
ready to be worn in any car or truck driving later at night.
Don't make excuses for not being prepared, Be Prepared.
Is there a day that crime isn't in the news?
Child abductions, rapes, robberies,
assaults, car-jackings, break-ins and home invasions are
headlines every day. Everyone can use a slight edge. Shouldn't
you be protected?
It would be nice to believe that nothing will
happen to you, but the reality of it is that an ounce of
protection could be worth more than a pound of cure. What is
Worth Protection to you? Your belongings? Your family? Your
personal well-being?
