I think we could all stand to pay just a little bit more attention to what is going on around us while out in public.
I Recently read, in my local paper, about a woman who lost her purse while pumping gas. She explains how she pulled into the gas station in a very busy part of town, and with many other people around. Her gas tank being on the passenger side of the car, she parked appropriatly. She exited her vehicle and proceeded around the car to begin pumping her gasaline. She finished pumping her fuel and reentered her car. She then notice that her purse was missing. When she originally exited the car, she took only the one credit card she needed to pay at the pump and left her purse sitting on the passenger seat. A bit frazeled she went into the gas station store and spoke to the manager. Together they observed the security tapes of the pump area. There it was, all captured on video.
When she originally pulled into the pumps, a small sedan followed her in and parked at the opposite pump to her drivers door (remember her gas tank was on the passenger side of her vehicle). After she exited her vehicle and proceeded around her car, and inserted her credit card into the pump, a passenger from the sedan parked opposite of her, exited the passenger side of his car, and while squatting down low, opened her car door, entered her vehicle through her drivers door, removed her purse and closed the door very softly. All this was done in less than 30 seconds!
Now I can tell you how to combat this type of theft, but that would be assuming that you were an idiot. What I would really like to drum home to you, is that by just paying a little bit more attention to what is going on around us, this type of activity would not have been possible. I would however, suggest that you always carry your key chain out of the car when refueling, and preferrably have a Key chain pepper spray attached. If this woman had caught this man in mid theft, it may have come in handy. Another good tool would be a portable personal alarm attached to her purse, that would have activated when it was moved. That really would have dumbfounded him.
I thought doubely hard about this crime when I found myself parked at the gas pumps, in a similar manner, just a few days after I read about my neighbors victimization. While pumping my own gas, a woman drove into the gas station and stopped a couple of islands away from me (the station was not to busy) and proceeded to ask me directions. As she was a bit of a soft talker, and me being slightly hard of hearing, I left the close vacinity of my vehicle and walked over to her vehicle to give her directions. After giving her directions and making sure she understood them, I realized that I had left my car unlocked and if some one had wanted to enter it while the woman distracted me by asking for directions, they most easily could have. I was lucky that she really did only need directions.
My point is that we all could stand to be just a little more aware of the situation around us. I know we like to think that it can never happen to us, but there really are people out there that are willing to take what is rightfully yours if the oppourtunity is given to them. I’m also not advocating that we all become paranoid of everyone around us. I’m just reminding everyone that An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.
There have been an increasing number of recent sightings in my neighborhood and community, of coyotes of all things. With the longer days and extended sunlight hours, wild animals of all types will become more and more visible to the community as they search for food and water. Just walking your dog, or walking for exercise, has become an event that you should maintain a higher situational awareness for. And specifically for coyotes. Coyotes have been known to attack and kill small dogs and cats as well as stalking the occasional child. It would be a good idea to keep your garbage can lids on tight as well, in an attempt to deter them from entering your property.
Carrying a good defense spray is never a bad idea. You can carry a specific K9 repellent or a common pepper spray will work just as well. If an animal approaches you, try to maneuver so the you are upwind of the breeze (most animals will approach from downwind anyway). Then simply spray your product into the air in front them, letting it drift toward them or allowing them to walk into it. You don’t even have to hit them in the face. With their sensitive nose, they will detect the spray far enough away and most likely move away. If for some reason this tactic does not deter them and they continue to approach, then spraying them directly in the face, as you would a human, will definitely put a stop to their aggression.
Most people do not realize that pepper spray and K9 spray are primarily the same product. The K9 spray must be EPA approved to be environmentally safe in order to carry the label of K9 spray. Either will do the trick when it comes to deterring man or beast.
Security Equipment Corporation joins the fight against breast cancer via
a donation made on the sale of every PINK (HC-NBCF-01) pepper spray..
Every two (2) minutes, a woman in the United States is diagnosed with breast cancer.
There are over two million (2,000,000) women living in America with breast cancer and
approximately one (1) in every eight (8) women will develop breast cancer within their
lifetime. According to the American Cancer Society, breast cancer has now become the
most frequently diagnosed cancer in women.
The NBCF Mission “is to save lives by increasing awareness of breast cancer through
education and by providing mammograms for those in need”. The NBCF provided
more than 22,000 free mammograms for underinsured women in America in 2006, and
the Foundation also supports cancer research, primarily through a relationship with the University of Texas
M.D. Anderson Cancer Center in Houston, TX, and research programs at the Cleveland Clinic in Cleveland, OH.
Unfortunately, nearly every American household has been affected by cancer and similar to most families, Security
Equipment Corporation (SEC), a family owned and operated business, has had several members diagnosed with
cancer. SEC’s President and founder, Larry D. Nance, has been a patient of the M.D. Anderson Cancer Center. Fully
realizing the seriousness of this disease, SEC was pleased to learn about the National Breast Cancer Foundation’s
(NBCF) efforts to fight breast cancer and support cancer research. SEC is proud to announce it has joined the NBCF
in the fight against breast cancer.
Beginning January 1, 2008, SEC will make a donation to the NBCF on the sale of each
SABRE RED, Pink, Key Chainpepper spray (HC-NBCF-01). SEC’s compact and most popular key chain pepper spray is equipped with a quick
release key ring and deploys up to 25 shots at a 10 foot range. David Nance, SEC Vice President, said, “We are very
happy and proud to support the NBCF and its fight against breast cancer. Fortunately, the NBCF chose our most
practical and popular SABRE product which maximizes SEC’s ability to support this excellent charity and cause”.
This partnership enables consumers throughout the United States to support an excellent charity while equipping
themselves or a loved one with the increased safety provided by SABRE RED pepper spray. Look for the new pink
packaging shown above at one of thousands of retailers within the US beginning in 2008 and join the fight against
both cancer and crime.
Since 1975, Security Equipment Corporation has produced the most effective line of defense spray products.
Branded as SABRE, SABRE RED and FRONTIERSMAN, customers are offered the finest defense spray possible with
one thought in mind: When a life is at stake, our products must be effective.
Physical Fitness is a major part of our life today, but always ensure your safety when you exercise alone.
* Jog with a partner.
* Jog in familiar areas, and avoid secluded places.
* Do not jog alone after dark.
* Wear a reflective vest during hours of darkness.
* Carry a whistle when you jog.
* Don’t wear you Ipod while jogging outside, you can’t hear cars or people coming up behind you.
* Always lock your door when you leave and carry a key, someone might be waiting for you to leave.
* Always be aware of your surroundings.
* Think about carrying pepper spray with a hand band or belt clip.
* Remember… being aware of your surroundings is the best defense you can have.
You can’t put a pricetag on peace of mind, believe me. For the longest time I would walk to my car at night wondering who might be lurking in the shadows. Ever since I found your store, though, I haven’t had those worries. Some of your personal safety products have given me the confidence to go anywhere I want whenever I want. I shouldn’t have to stay cooped up just because it’s dark outside!And the best part is that it wasn’t even that expensive. I’ve seen products similar to yours being sold locally for two or three times as much. I’m not made of money and I need to watch my budget just like everyone else. I don’t think it’s fair for people to put giant markups on their products just because they’re so necessary for so many people.
