Lowering your odds of being robbed while out on the street is possible through some common sense choices on your part.

  • Pay attention! Crooks look for easy targets and people who are paying attention are not easy targets.
  • Don't be flashy. Showing off how well you are doing with expensive clothes, shoes or jewelry does exactly what it is intended to do, get you attention. Of course, the issue is the attention can turn out to be from bad people.
  • Get and carry a self defense weapon of some type. There are tons to choose from like Stun Guns, Pepper Spray, Kubotans and other many other options. Something as small as a $5.00 Pepper Spray can mean the difference from being a victim or not.

Lastly, especially at night, travel with at least one friend.
