Crime Safety and Security
for Women and Children -
Everything You Need to Know
This is the only site that organizes the best of the vast internet into an all-in-one guide to crime safety and security. It’s from 34 years of researching the top experts and teaching hundreds of classes to civic groups, children’s groups, college students, hospitals, corporations, crime survivors, rape crisis centers, and veteran cops at police academies. Now it’s all here to help keep you and yours out of harm's way.
Visitors from 100+ countries every month learn how to outsmart burglars, thugs, muggers, killers, kidnappers, carjackers, rapists, child molesters, stalkers, and human traffickers.
For the first time anywhere, all of home security is simply classified into five types. You can prevent home invasions and burglaries by making sure all
your family members use these safety tips (as a chain is no stronger than its weakest link). Your security really is in
the hands of your entire family. Predators will have to look elsewhere
for easy prey.
Your life in the outside world largely is in your hands with the know-how of driving safety, parking lot safety, and street crime tips.
You'll learn how to protect your kids beyond the reach of your arms with the articles in Child Safety - Overview.
Whenever you’re tempted to be careless, ask yourself, "What could possibly happen?" The real-life stories throughout this website show you what could possibly happen – and how to turn the odds more in your favor.
You'll see how to avoid a face-to-face encounter, how to control fear itself, how criminal minds think, and – best of all – how to outsmart them.
Crime survivors and their loved ones will find counseling resources as well as guidance in choosing a self defense class to empower your recovery.
A Predator's Biggest Advantage:
The Naïveté Of The Prey
Folklore and fables – from vampire and wolf-man legends to tales of The Brothers’ Grimm – tell us of ogres, fiends, and monsters. Today we call them violent criminals. They’ve always plagued us and – as long as passions, madness, and evil exist – always will. Let’s blow away a predator's biggest advantage: the naïveté of the prey.
Violent Criminals Outnumber The Cops – By Far
Roughly three percent of men (one out of 33) are criminal sub-clinical psychopaths. Most of them are masters of deception and look and act perfectly normal, and they easily travel to any neighborhood at any time of day or night. And… they outnumber the cops – by far.
The US Department of Justice says that the United States has roughly 800,000 cops for the entire country - with only a fraction of those on patrol at any one time. And the average 9-1-1 response time is 11 minutes – an eternity in an emergency. In many areas it’s far slower than that.
By contrast, nearly 630,000 prisoners are released each year to walk among us and roughly two-thirds of them are arrested again within three years for new crimes. Add to that the many thousands of criminals paroled in prior years and also all the young criminals who haven’t been arrested yet.
From 1977 to 1997, nearly four million Americans were either murdered, stabbed, clubbed, strangled, shot, or otherwise injured – more casualties than the U.S. military has suffered in all the wars in its history.
Walking among us are paroled killers, kidnappers, carjackers, thugs, muggers, burglars, rapists, child molesters, stalkers, and human traffickers – as well as the up-and-coming young predators. Do you rely on understaffed cops to always protect you and your loved ones? Really?...

Aware of traps and escape strategies – as shown in Spotting Danger and Facing Danger;
Flexible: being tricky, changing strategies as needed – as shown in Victim’s Options - Outsmarting and Verbal Self Defense – and if worse comes to worst:
