Here’s a story that was in USA Today recently about how domestic violence has increased nationwide because of the economy. Law enforcement officials feel that this places more stress on a relationship because of economic hardships.
A law enforcement official was quoted as saying “When stresses in the home increase because of unemployment and other hardships, domestic violence increases,” Thomson said. “We see it on the street.”

Domestic violence can happen anywhere and it doesn’t happen with just bad economic conditions. Even wealthy families have domestic violence. We call it equal opportunity devastator of lives.

Here’s a story about a woman who was sexually assaulted at Delta College in Stockton, California recently. She was able to get away on her own but police are still looking for the assailant.
You can read the whole story HERE.
Sexual assaults on college campuses are much more common than you think. Whenever I see this I often wonder why college-age women especially, or women in general don’t carry some self defense products.
One of the best self defense products women in carry is the Wildfire Key Chain Spray that fits right on your key chain so it is handy in all cases. It has an 18% concentration of oleoresin capsicum instead of the usual 10% that most pepper sprays have so it’s almost twice as potent.
Please check out all of our other Wildfire Sprays. One of them might be just right for you.

Here’s a story about some new military police trainees who are undergoing training that hasn’t been done before. They are finding out what oleoresin capsicum, better known as pepper spray, is like. Believe it or not,until now, Military police had no nonlethal alternative to deadly force. Now they are starting to carry pepper sprays to help them perform their duties.
The course is called Law Enforcement Training Seminar.

It is actually not surprising that the military would choose pepper spray as their first nonlethal alternative to deadly force. It is close to 90% effective on average and is the most widely used nonlethal self defense product in the world.
We have a wide selection of Mace Pepper Sprays which are the most popular pepper sprays in the marketplace. When people say pepper spray they think Mace.
If you want a stronger concentration of oleoresin capsicum Wildfire Sprays would be your choice.

It seems that hardly a day goes by we don’t read or hear about a situation where somebody is attacked and injured by a dog. In this case it was an older woman who got attacked by two dogs. People came to her defense by throwing things at the dogs but they continued their attack until somebody finally got them to stop by hitting them with a stick.
You can read the whole story HERE.
If you’ve ever been attacked by a dog or bitten by a dog you know how absolutely terrifying it can be. It leaves an indelible scar and memory that you just don’t forget.
There are many items that you can use to prevent dog attacks and protect yourself. The Dog Chaser is one. It makes an ultrasonic sound that chases dogs away. It can only be heard by dogs and is not harmful to them just very un- pleasing.
Second is the telescopic stun baton.
Of my recent favorites is the Mace Pepper Gun. The reason I like this better than anything else is because of its long-range. It has enough pepper spray to shoot seven 25 foot shots.

You can travel safely with a rear view mirror camera with audio. The camera can pick up happenings on the road behind you, which can be advantageous if you have limited vision.
Getting a rear view mirror camera with audio for your car can allow you to travel safely. You have to remember that you can meet accidents on the road, and anything can come at you from all directions. You might find yourself encountering people from the side, and frighteningly, from behind. You may have the ability to focus on the front of your vehicle, and, with some limitations, you can also see and act on anything that comes from the side. But how well can you monitor what is happening behind you so that you can act in time to save yourself, the vehicle, and the rest of the people in your car? What if you were driving a truck that had limited vision?
One good thing about some rear view mirror cameras is that they have audio capability. You can listen to what is going on in the road behind you, and you can anticipate coming cars that might come from behind carelessly, or even trucks that have a limited range of vision and will not be able to see you. There is another thing that you should look for when you get a rear view mirror camera with audio: you might need one that can rotate so that you can see the inside of your car. This can be useful if you have a big car with children in the backseat, and if there is anything precious or expensive the backseat that you need to watch.
If you are going to buy a rear view mirror camera, look for one that has reliable and clear audio. Often, poor audio will have a lot of static that can ruin the noise that you would like to hear; and poor audio could even create sounds that would alert you into hearing something that is not even there. You might also have the option of getting a rear view mirror camera that has recording capabilities. This will allow you to monitor what is happening in your backseat, and you can trace breakage or sources of fights, depending on whether you have baggage or children.
These are only a few things that a rear view mirror cam plus audio can give you while you are on the road. For more information on what a rear view mirror camera plus audio can do, as well as the best bargains on such combos, ask for more information from your camera retailer. Come up with a big selection of brands so that you can select the brand that fits your budget and needs best. You should be able to travel safely, and if a rear view mirror cam plus audio can help you, then you will need to invest in one today.

Far too often women are the victims of attack when they don’t need to be. Learning a few self defense tactics can save the day. Even just by reading this you are getting a little edge on your attacker. It is doubtful he is at home reading “How to attack women.”
The most effective technique you can employ is not to get attacked at all. You are most vulnerable when you are on the move, like going to your car. Stay within sight of people as much as possible. Your attacker wants you to be alone. If you are being attacked, don’t let him force you into your car (throw your keys if you have too) or around the corner of the building. Women will often notice that they are being targeted before an attack. If so keep an object between you and him weather it is a car or bench or anything that could slow him down. Just slowing him down might be enough to get him to leave as he only has a small window to work in.
If it appears the attack is imminent then you need to quickly review your options. Is screaming or making noise going to help? Often times it is pointless so it is time for a weapon. Of the personal non-lethal options the stun gun is the most effective as in makes that intimidating crackling. You don’t have something like that? It is time to improvise. An ink pen or keys to the eye is devastating. If you are grabbed from behind and you’re wearing heels you have a great weapon. Even if the heel is ½ inch square on the bottom your 135 pound weight becomes 540 pounds with all your weight on it. If the heels are ¼ inch it goes up to 2100 lbs. Ouch!
You just used one of the 3 strongest part of or body to strike with. The other two are you elbows and the ball of you palm. Use them or go after his weakest targets. You already got one but there is still the groin, harder to hit than it sounds, his trachea, and his face. Eye gouging is great too. If he gets his hands around your neck there is one defense move you need to know; turn your head toward your shoulder. This will stop him from crushing your trachea. Also try to get control of his hands. Just by holding his wrist you have severely limited what he can do. He would find it hard to draw and use his weapon, you would limit his ability to hit you, and make it very hard to rape you. Remember that time is on your side. He has to work quickly or get caught and your screams will make this time seem like hours to him.
A short article is not a replacement for a good self defense class but it will give you a start and put you in the right mind set. In the class you have an opportunity to apply what you learn. Also, look into a non-lethal self defense device. A 135 pound woman armed with pepper spray and 500,000 volts is going to be able to take any man. Both the stun gun can be the size of a marker. Big things can come in little packages.

Homes may be our most sacred place, but burglars and other criminals won’t care about this. If they wish to invade the sanctity of your home, they’ll do so. The only way to deter them right from the start is to let them know – or at least think – that your home won’t be as easy a target as they think.
Outsmart Attackers with Female Voice Changer
Physically speaking, women may be the weaker sex. It’s why attackers of all kinds tend to prefer to attack homes with female members, especially if they happen to be alone. You can, however, outsmart them and make them think twice about attacking your home with a female voice changer.
Pretend that You Are Not Alone
Use the female voice changer to adapt different voices when answering the phone. This will make your attackers think that you are not alone in the house and have more than one person with you.
Fool Would-Be Stalkers
Women are more likely to be targeted by stalkers than men. The whys and how’s don’t matter. What you should be concerned about is preventing your stalkers from contacting you. If a stranger is calling you, use the female voice changer and convince them that they have the wrong number.
Discourage Prank Callers
Prank callers and other people who harass you through phone calls may also be discouraged from repeating such undesirable acts with your female voice changer. If you warn them off using your own voice, they might not take you seriously. But if you use a different voice and speak to them in a more threatening fashion, that could make them think twice about calling you again.
Remember to Be Consistent
The female voice changer will be more effective in keeping you safe if you remember to be consistent. If you use a particular voice with a particular person for a particular reason, remember to do the same if that person calls again.
Try creating a credible persona and schedule for the various voices you use with the female voice changer. A male adult who’s with you even during working hours should be someone who may be currently vacationing at your home and one who works at night.
Charge!
Finally, be sure that your female voice charger is fully charged or plugged to the socket. Your secret will be out if your female voice changer suddenly loses power and reveal your true voice. Don’t wait for that to happen!
