Unfortunately, the video above depicts the dangers of living in an urban community like St. Louis, Mo. Residents, commuters and visitors must be vigilant about being aware of their surroundings at all times.
In college, there will be kids from everywhere attending the very same school as your daughter. They may be students but they may be trying to hide malicious intentions that you could never know about until it is too late. Because of this, personal security for college students has to be made a priority. Especially, when traveling through the urban areas of St. Louis, Mo.
Self-defense devices will definitely be convenient but can come out useless if you buy the wrong items. Not only does that put you in danger, it is a complete waste of money as well. A smart way to ensure personal security for college students would be via special purpose kits. These ideally contain all the gadgets that an undergraduate may need for security against crooks. Whether you need alarms set up in your room or a device on your person that can incapacitate thugs, an urban safety kit will protect your son or daughter from being victimized by urban street thugs in St. Louis, Mo.
However, it is important that you select an urban safety kit that will will be easy for your college daughter to employ if needed for self defense and overall personal protection, especially if your daughter is living off campus in the urban St. Louis community. A good college urban safety kit must possess an array of self-defense devices put together by professionals for the specific purpose of surviving on campus or off of university property. Kits that uphold personal security for college students are also much more cost-efficient because you buy the contents as a whole. Not only that, you save a lot of time and effort from needing to search for those separately. There are several tools that you will need to remain protected but a few of the vital ones that you will be surprised you really need would be a nap alarm, electronic pocket whistle and pepper spray with keychain.
When searching for a college survival kit, ensure that you acquire more than simply the actual devices for protection. Personal security for college students is much more than simply about tools. Purchase a package that contains an instructional DVD along with the user manual, and special safety reports. By securing the suitable kit and learning how to utilize it, you can reduce your chances or that of a loved one from being victimized by street crime.
Another senseless murder by urban thug claims the life of an elderly church going woman in her 80′s.

Self defense and some form of personal protection is a must in these dangerous times in America.
Anyone who has driven to a St. Louis Cardinal’s baseball game, know that parts of St. Louis, MO look like a war zone. Abandoned homes, warehouses and buildings are crumbling throughout the city. Though the suburban population has ballooned to approximately 3 million, the frequently quoted population of St. Louis city is roughly 356,000.
Believe it or not, car thefts and break-ins are so common in many parts of the community that the city actually post signs in public parking areas warning city visitors not to leave valuables visible in their vehicles or better yet not at all.
Sadly, in the most dangerous city in America. Murders have become common on local television news channels. St. Louis residents can expect a murder to be reported every few days in the most dangerous city in America. The murder rate in St. Louis is about 4 times higher than the murder rate in New York.

I’m sure by now you have read or heard the announcement by CQ Press that St. Louis, MO is the most dangerous city in America. There is much disagreement aboutthe statistical data used to return St. Louis to the #1 ranking in the nation. There has also been much written and reported in the local media of the outrage and unfairness of announcing St. Louis as the Most Dangerous City in America.
The outrage should be about St. Louis criminals being the most dangerous in America and what’s causing St. Louis to consistently be one of the most dangerous cities in the nation. After all, we were ranked #1 in 2006 and leaders took no apparent action to address the problem. So why is everyone acting so surprised?
Also, there has been much discussion about how most of the violent crimes are being committed within easily identifiable zip codes. Well, if you already know that, wouldn’t it make the problem much more easier to solve?
Here’s my personal predictions; murders, rapes, robberies, shootings and aggravated assaults will continue to rise out of control as public officials argue about being ranked the #1 most dangerous city in America as opposed to #3, #6, or #10. Who cares about the ranking, address the problem! Otherwise, St. Louis criminals, the most dangerous in America, will venture out to the suburbs and affluent parts of the community and we’ll really have a problem when this happens. And as quietly as it’s kept, some say it already has begun.
Criminals aren’t stupid, they’ll eventually search for softer targets near colleges, universities and more affluent parts of the community. Don’t wait until after you have been victimized by a thug to think about your personal safety. Wildfire pepper spray andStun Master‘s 4.5 Million Volt Hot Shot stun gun provide extremely effective non-lethal personal protection for women.
Well after being named the most dangerous city in 2006, we lost the title and managed to make second place last year. But no worries, St. Louis is once again the most dangerous city in America…Got Your pepper spray?
According to CQ Press, St. Louis has the highest incidences of murder, rape, robbery, aggravated assault, burglary and motor vehicle theft in the nation. It’s scary to think we beat out Detroit, Michigan and Oakland, California for the most dangerous city in America. But until all law enforcement agencies and police departments are required to submit complete crime statistics using the same metric, the only thing we know for certain is that crime is real and these are dangerous times.

Avoid overloading yourself with packages. It is important to have clear visibility and freedom of motion to avoid mishaps.
At home, be extra cautious about locking doors and windows when you leave the house, even for a few minutes. Leave lights and a radio or television on so the house looks occupied. Do not put large displays of holiday gifts in view of your windows or doors.
If you go away for the holidays, try to keep your home appearing “living in”; Get an automatic timer for your lights. Have a neighbor watch your home and pick-up your newspapers and mail.
If you use lights on your tree, make sure that they are in good working order.
Immediately mark your new gifts with your driver’s license number, and note all serial numbers, keeping records in a safe place.

I’m often asked what is Holiday Shopping Self Defense? Well, Holiday Shopping Self Defense incompasses everything from being aware of your surroundings to employingself-defense weapons if attacked by an assailant. The holiday season is a busy time of the year for everyone including criminals. Remember, holiday shoppers are bouncing from store to store often carrying large amounts of cash and carrying multiple packages.
The FBI crime reports confirm that criminals are more active and crimes such as burglaries, robberies, car jackings, car thefts and muggings increase during the month of December. Holiday Shopping Self Defense means being vigilant about your personal safety during the holiday season.
These are dangerous times and criminals are looking for someone they can catch off guard. As you already know, the day after Thanksgiving is the official start of the winter holiday shopping season. The following Holiday Shopping self defense tips will minimize your chances of being targeted and victimized by a criminal. Remember, Black Friday is on November 26, 2010 which officially launches the holiday shopping season.
Your safety and security while shopping and enjoying the holiday festivities should be high on your list of priorities. Again, with the number of carjackings, robberies, personal assaults, burglaries and home invasions increasing at this time of year, it is imperative that you implement these Holiday Shopping Self Defense tips…
1. Be fully aware of your surroundings at all times and be totally alert as your walk to your car. Take notice of anybody loitering around the parking lot or garage especially at night.
2. As you walk to your car, have your car keys ready in your hand and be prepared to use them as a weapon if assaulted or attacked. It is strongly recommended that women carry a wildfire pepper spray keychain as a non-lethal form of self-defense.
3. If your car has a remote, only unlock the driver’s side door with your remote and wait until you are fairly close to the car before doing so.
4. Before getting into your car, check to make sure there is not someone hiding inside. Many people have a dangerous habit of not locking their car doors.
5. Women, wear comfortable shoes rather than high heels when shopping. If you are attacked in the parking lot or garage, comfortable shoes with no heels can help you escape.
6. Avoid parking near large vehicles or shrubbery, especially if shopping alone. Also, be leery of vans with sliding doors parked next to the driver’s side of your car. Above all, trust your intuition and return to the mall to request a security escort if you don’t feel safe or you feel that something looks suspicious.
7. Finally, don’t leave valuables such as iPod’s, wallets, laptops, purses, cash or packages in plain view inside your car. You are just inviting a thief to break into your car.
Chances are if you are reading this that crime has touched you in some way or you in some way consider yourself at risk. Take the next step and do something to protect yourself and your love ones away at college. Your life and personal safety are worth more than the cost of a pepper spray or stun gun.
Don’t be complacent and think that crime can only happen to the “other girl”. The “other girl” is thinking the same way and to her the “other girl” is YOU!
Unfortunately, most people don’t take action and purchase personal protection until after they have been assaulted or victimized somehow by an attacker. Also, it’s important to remember that violent crimes such as assaults, carjackings, rapes, muggings and home invasions increase during the Christmas holiday season.
Personal protection from criminals is something you can guard against but you must take action now, not later when you’ve been attacked or sexually assaulted. Both stun guns and pepper sprays are inexpensive forms of non-lethal personal protection, yet extremely effective and life saving!
