The Ultimate Personal Protector - Taser C2!!!
If you're new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed. Thanks for visiting!
If you have followed my blog for any time, you know I recommend carrying some type of personal protection device - like pepper spray, mace, stun gun, or a Taser C2 - the ultimate personal protector!.
Unless you have been tazed…you may not realize that this little device can knock the socks off of a predator..an attacker..or person assaulting another. And guess what…they deserve it! The Taser C2 is a non-lethal device that is meant to stun and/or disable a predator or attacker enough for the victim to get away to safety and contact the police.
Here is a video of a young man who ran from the law and finally ended up feeling the full force of the Taser. This young man is being very truthful in letting other potential criminals know the full effect and full force of the Taser. Listen to his recommendation on whether to fight the law or fight the Taser….

If you already have a Personal Safety Plan then you know how important it is to be prepared and know what to do if confronted by an attacker. Having self-defense skills and knowledge are a great part of the plan, but if you are dealing with someone who is totally bent on doing you grave harm, you want that secondary backup - and that is where the Taser C2 can be your ultimate personal protector. If you decide to carry a Taser C2, be sure to become properly trained in knowing how to use the device. You will receive a training DVD from Taser which gives excellent instructions. Practice using your Taser. That way you know exactly what to do if a situation arises where you must use it. Also check with your local city/county/state to be sure it is legal to carry within your area.
NOTE: Isn’t it ironic that YOU are trying to keep yourself safe and protect yourself from the criminal element who wants to assault/rape/attack or kill you, and the only way to protect yourself is by self-defense measures or using personal protection devices…and the LAW in some states say that personal protection devices are illegal to use. I wonder who they are trying to protect!! The criminal or the innocent????

Realtor Fights Off Attacker In House - South Bend, IN
This past weekend there was an incident where a realtor (female) was attacked by her prospect. As I have written about on many occasions - it doesn’t matter that you live in a small community like South Bend, Indiana where crime may not be as prevalent as in the larger cities - but crime still happens! And these criminals are looking for the avenue of least resistance. Realtors are considered a high risk profession and they need to do everything they can to ensure that their personal safety is one of their highest priorities.
That means ensuring you have a Safety Plan that includes taking self-defense training to learn simple, yet effective defensive techniques and tactics that will enable you to protect and defend yourself against an attacker. Also, take a personal safety awareness class that reviews and reiterates many realtor safety guidelines that are designed to promote everyday awareness to keep you safe. Read more
Top (5) Personal Safety Tips On Staying Safe and Alive!
Everyday we get up and go about our daily lives and activities without even giving a second thought to our personal safety. In reality, we shouldn’t have to because personal safety should be a part of our being. It should be second nature…a habit that we don’t even have to think about it. We should instinctively know that our personal safety, as well as those we care about, is a high priority no matter what business we are in, what we do, or where we live - from the safest, small community to the largest, most crime-ridden city.
There’s an old adage that many women think concerning violence and crime and that is, “It won’t happen to me.” Either they say, “I’m too big to be raped,” “I’m married and live in a safe area” or “I’m way too old, no one is going to rape me.” That very thinking usually comes about because it hasn’t happened to them, but they are still at risk and at any given time it could happen to them. If you go through life without considering the possibility that a sexual assault crime could happen…then what will you do if it does? You need to be prepared and ready in the event that somebody does try (at some point) to attack you. Read more
Personal Safety - Jobs That Put Women At Risk
Are you in a "high risk" job that affects your personal safety? Over the next few weeks I will be talking with women in high risk jobs to find out how they deal with this risk day in and day out, and what they are doing to stay safe and avoid becoming a victim of crime. Some of the professions women have that are considered high risk are Realtors, In-Home Sales Consultants, Nurses, and Attorney’s - to name a few.
In my personal safety training, one of the first things I recommend that women do to stay safe is develop a Personal Safety Plan. As you become proactive in your personal safety it puts you totally in control. (And when you lose control you lose period). As part of the plan, I also suggest taking some kind of self-defense training (RAD Self-Defense is excellent) along with a safety awareness course. With both types of training you becoming mentally and physically educated in how to protect and defend yourself against an attacker. This will give you a tremendous amount of confidence and empowerment knowing you are in control. I also discuss the use of non-lethal personal protection devices that women can carry to more positively fend off an attacker.
If you would like to comment about how you deal with your personal safety on the job, that would be great. Sharing this type of information with others will help us all. I will be posting my interviews to my website so be sure to sign up for my RSS feed or email.

Personal Security-Jogging & Walking Tips To Keep You Safe

Spring is definitely in the air and for a lot of people – this is jogging or walking weather. If you are like me, you want to make sure you are getting your exercise – your cardio – so you feel and look better for the coming summer season.
But guess what? The fact that you might think nothing of throwing on your cute little shorts – your halter top – pulling your hair back into a cute little ponytail and strapping your MP3 player to your upper arm and into your ears – means you should definitely be aware of some crazy predator out there looking for someone just like you – happy go lucky, with the CD or MP3 player going on in her ear, and nonchalantly jogging or walking. (The perfect prey).
Before you do your final stretch to hit the road, consider your personal safety along the way. You may be in a truly positive mode as you’re hitting the road – but the sad fact is – crime is rampant in certain areas – and there are predators out there just looking for someone who appears to be totally unaware of what is going on around her.

Realtor Personal Security & Safety Awareness

There are many professions that are considered “risky” professions, but none (other than our great soldiers) are as risky as the real estate profession. There are sales professions that I would also consider risky – such as in-home sales – but the Real Estate Profession over the last 20 years has been marked with sexual assaults, brutal physical attacks, and murders. Enough so that the National Association of Realtors (NAR) has placed Realtor Safety among its’ top priorities.
Let’s consider the Real Estate Profession:
• The Real Estate Profession is made up of more than 60+% women who for the most part are trusting individuals.
• Real estate professionals are independent business agents and tend to work and meet clients alone. Many agents occasionally go into an office but primarily work from home. They come and go without others always knowing their whereabouts.
• Real Estate agents advertise in many venues – billboards, magazines, newspapers, flyers, and corner benches – and usually have their picture and phone numbers out there for everyone to see and know how to contact them.
• Many real estate agents still use “old” glamour shot photos dating back 5-10 years or more on their business cards and advertising material. Back then these photos were more on the glamorous/sexy side and are probably not the best photos to use today. Displaying a professional business photo is the type of photo to use – indicating a more professional image.
• Many realtors are very busy and have become complacent about their personal security and safety. Sometimes without giving a second thought they quickly accept an invitation to meet a prospective client without following the proper safety precautions and guidelines.
• With the real estate market so volitale – agents are taking prospects who are looking to buy a home without doing the proper background check. Follow the prescribed real estate safety guidelines before meeting with new clients. Criminals can be very savvy. They may consider this criminal activity “their” business and think that real estate agents are an easy target. While the real estate professional is trusting and thinks the prospect is a potential buyer, he on the other hand may be contemplating his next criminal move. Read more
Self-Defense Lessons Learned-Don’t Be Lax About Your Personal Safety
By Ken Watterson
The event I am about to describe is a true story. It happened to me. Hopefully my story will raise the awareness of those who read it and save them from making the same kinds of mistakes that I made – mistakes that could have cost me serious injury or possibly my life, at the hands of a street thug who prefers to prey on other people rather than work to make a living on his own.
One evening a couple of years ago, I agreed to meet for dinner at a nice downtown restaurant with a couple of friends from work. We live in a city of a little over 100,000 people in the upper Midwest. Our city has what I would describe as a moderate-to-high crime rate with certain areas of the city much more dangerous than others. Some of the more dangerous areas surround the downtown area and some of the more unsavory characters make their living working the downtown streets. Read more
Protect Yourself and Your Family 24/7
Did you hear that a mother and her 8-year old daughter were found shot to death and left inside their SUV in Baca Raton, Florida? This just happened on 12/13/07 as they were leaving the Town Center Mall. (12 days before Christmas).
They were probably doing the last of their Christmas shopping and as they left the mall out of nowhere someone approached them and forced them inside their vehicle. Did he want money? What was his motive? And why did he have to kill them?
