Crime Prevention street smart
(From the book The Art of Urban Survival Stefan Verstappen)
In social and professional attitude is the same as the warrior, even when there is discord. Consciousness to observe the dynamics of situations, including in a group, is the art of war.
Yagyu Munenori, The Book of the family tradition in the art of war
Consciousness
The first step in preventing crime is to develop an awareness and presence of mind to detect potential hazards in advance and take action to avoid them. Naturally, the degree of supervision to use depends on your environment. At home, homes in the workplace and friend, of course, you can let your guard down, however, when traveling in public or when the watch should be in place.
When in a strange environment, be alert, walk with a purpose, and be aware of their surroundings. If you feel suspicious in the area or the people around you mentally prepare for an attack. Think of a plan of action to take if you were to be attacked. Note account that can be performed using as the police station nearest retail store or restaurant.
When you enter a public space, make a rapid analysis of their environment for potential problems. Make a mental note of all the world too loud and obnoxious drunk and disturbing insulation. Shout-out, the reform-de-sacs, and always sit facing the entrance.
Position
Another aspect of education and deterrence posture. His stance is part body language. Good posture and foot solid fluid contact with people around a sense of confidence and strength. Criminals often target victims who appear weak and easily intimidated. Consciously or instinctively tends to people whose body language communicates a weak and vulnerable character. Good posture sends signals that indicate the strength, confidence and knowledge, helping to prevent an attack. Most criminals think twice before attacking someone with that attitude confidence and simply wait for a victim more likely to find.
Safety distance
Safety distance is the minimum distance should be maintained between you and a suspicious person or car. This distance is four to eight feet away. The reason to keep a distance to a time when the nervous system between perception and reaction (about 0. 5 seconds.) This means that if a foreigner may be closer to a safe distance, while that the alien "idiot can pinch or" blind side "(a hand without provocation), before having time to react. However, maintaining a distance security forces an attacker to take two steps before you can hit. This gives a warning and enough time to escape and evade or attack-cons.
If a potential attacker moves in close to him say keep your distance. Do not be embarrassed to shout at people to back down if you feel threatened or uncomfortable. If they are converging, go away to maintain a safe distance when you return the call. Advances near you then be interpreted as an attack and must react accordingly. (See combat hand to hand p. 143)
Street Smarts
Darwinian Socialism requires that resources are scarce, there is fierce competition for survival. These environments are deserts, forests, swamps and tropical forests. In urban areas, poor neighborhoods would with high unemployment and street crime, urban or rural areas subject to environmental depletion and economic depression, as well as entire nations are subject to limited resources and limited political dictatorships.
The common factor is the scarcity and the difficulty in acquiring basic needs survival. In this context, one is not part of the immediate family or clan is a competitor and therefore the enemy. The first question to foreigners is always: "What want? and "What should I do?
On the basis of this cynical, if not practical resource is only the understanding that each encounter with another person is a small battle for survival. In this context, any person who acts friendly and interested in their welfare is there for you use. On the street, can be a bully, pimp, thief, or a rapist. In business, could be a crook, a thief or a swindler. In the desert can be a villain who will kept in an ambush, or is the size of their wealth and strength to return later with reinforcements. Any alien handshake that is suspicious for any reason and is best avoided until you can discover the real reasons about them.
If you need help from strangers, you indicate that you are willing to negotiate compensation for your help. Otherwise it would do the same suspicions, you must have if someone approaches you with the pretext of friendship or an urgent need. In these environments, no one feels sorry for you or feel sorry for you. If you need help or advice you owe, or threat.
Given these simple precautions in public, can prevent and avoid becoming a victim of street crime.
href = "# _ednref1"> [i]. The importance of self-defense posture illustrated in a study of United States on the effectiveness of self-defense training for women. Although women have been trained in a martial art is only slightly chance of escaping an abusive situation, showed that the women were significantly less likely to be attacked. The study revealed that although women have a 25% chance of becoming a victim of violence, women who have studied martial arts an opportunity showed below 3%. The explanation for this disparity is thought to be attributable to body language. Interviews with rapists, abusers, pickpockets, showed that criminals tend to choose easy targets, people that, through their body language, look vulnerable. It suggests that women who have studied self-defense provided a more confident and match the language the body that discourage potential attackers.
[He] Perhaps the factor most often mentioned as relevant for developing a strategy of deception, especially among men, the competition is at a disadvantage in relation to the ability to obtain resources and their potential mate. Ideally, people are less likely to compete with men in a status hierarchy, or to achieve their classmates through the election Women are more likely to adopt a strategy of deception. (See, for example, Thornhill and Alcock 1983, 1983 and Daly and Wilson Gould and Gould 1989 re:. Nonhuman animals, and Symons, 1979, Kenrick et al 1983, MacMillan and Kofoed 1984, MacMillan and Kofoed 1986, Cohen and Machalek 1988, Tooke and Camire 1991 and Thornhill and Thornhill 1992 Re: humans). In humans, competitive disadvantage could be linked to a variety of factors, including age, health, physical attractiveness, intelligence, level socio-economic, and social skills.
