Do you feel safe when you walk to your car at night? Do you feel there is somebody stalking you when you are sitting alone at a bus stop? If so, we have the best crime prevention weapon for you. This item is provides the perfect element of surprise.
Introducing the mighty Pretender cell phone stun gun. This stun gun is very easy to carry in the hand. Do not snicker at the looks of its small size. This machine definitely packs a wallop. At 975,000 V, you can wield this machine against your assailant and watch him drop to his knees right away.
This unit measures 4″ x 2″ x 1″. It contains a black and grey plastic housing made of ABS plastic and operates on three (3) CR123A 3 V lithium batteries. This little fake cell phone weighs only 4 oz.
Included with the cell phone stun gun is a leather case. The Pretender fits nicely into the leather case which has an open window in the front to expose the “numbers” on the cell phone. Unlike other stun guns on the market, you can carry this item with you and nobody will suspect that it is not a cell phone. The belt clip on the back side of the leather case allows you to carry this unit on your belt or on the inside part of your purse.
The Pretender cell phone stun gun hides nicely in your hand in plain sight if you choose to carry it with you. You could not do that with a flashlight stun gun in broad daylight or a C2 Taser stun gun since they would look too obvious. With the Pretender, you can.
The Pretender functions as a flashlight. This unit contains 12 powerful LED’s. It is great when you need to fumble for the right key when you open the car door or unlock the front door to your house at night where visibility is low. Just depress one of the buttons marked “light” on the face of the cell phone and the flashlight shines brightly wherever you point it.
Not only does the Pretender function as a flashlight, there is also a stun gun feature embedded in the unit. The other button on the face of the cell phone clearly spells out “stun”. By depressing this button and positioning the contact probes on your attacker, you can discharge this tool in his gut and send him screaming with 975,000 V. That is more voltage to put down a horse!
Are you concerned about accidental discharge of the stun gun? Not to worry. On the side of the cell phone stun gun, there is a power switch. A simple slide of the black switch turns on the entire unit’s flashlight and stun gun features. A simple slide of the switch in the opposite direction turns the entire unit off.
Personal safety is always a concern on the minds of many women today. With this product, you can rest assured that you are getting what you pay for.
The physiological effects of the Pretender cell phone stun gun are as follows:
- Shocking the attacker for ½ second will startle him and give him some pain and muscle contraction.
- For 1 to 2 seconds, he will experience muscle spasms and mental confusion.
- For 3 to 5 seconds, he will experience loss of balance and voluntary muscle control along with total mental confusion and disorientation.
Always keep stun guns away from children since these are not toys. These are self defense items. Always check your batteries to ensure that you have a fully charged unit that is ready for use whenever you leave your house or your job.
Remember that the safety of you and your family members should always come first.

Do you feel safe when you walk to your car at night? Do you feel safe when you leave your college campus late at night? Do you want peace of mind without the associated baggage of carrying a handgun or firearm?
Introducing the mighty Double Trouble stun gun by Zap products. This stun gun is very easy to carry around with you in the hand since it conforms to your fist. But do not let its looks fool you. By the looks of this item, one would mistake it for a Batarang found on Batgirl’s utility belt. However, this item can do more what a Batarang was intended for. At 1,200,000 V, you can wield this machine against your assailant and watch him drop to his knees right away.
By carrying this item in your hand, a simple pull of the trigger using your index finger will fire this personal defense weapon and cause the two pairs of electrodes to fire up and delivery shocking bad news to your attacker.
This unit measures 6.25″ x 3.75″ x 1.25″. It contains a black and green rubber coated housing and operates on three (3) CR123A 3 V lithium batteries (included). This dynamic tool weighs only 6.9 oz. Even if the batteries were discharged, you can still use this item as a hand tool. When you hold this item in your fist, this tool can be used as a punching weapon since each of the two pairs of electrodes protrude past your knuckles. These extensions of your hand can function as “claws” used to scratch or poke the offender in the eyes and face. You could not do that with a C2 Taser or any of the “boxy” looking stun guns on the market. The Zap Double Trouble stun gun definitely will stop him in his tracks while buying you time to escape.
Included with the Double Trouble stun gun is a nylon holster/carrying case. The Double Trouble fits nicely into the nylon case which has a flip top Velcro closure to maintain the weapon in its holster. In addition, there a metal belt clip on the back side of the nylon case that allows you to carry this unit on your belt or on the inside part of your purse.
The Double Trouble stun gun conforms nicely in your hand. Using your thumb, you can flip the on switch which will power up a red LED indicator light signifying that the unit is live and ready for action. In the off position, the unit will not operate even if the fire button is pressed in. This helps to prevent any accidental discharge of the weapon.
Many women consider their personal safety of utmost importance. With this product, you can rest assured that you are getting what you pay for. However, knowing what to target on your attacker is just as important. When using the Double Trouble stun gun you want to focus on the perpetrator’s face, shoulders, midsection, and groin. He will love the groin part since his manhood could be fried off. I think you get the picture.
The physiological effects of the Double Trouble stun gun are as follows:
- Shocking the attacker for ¼ second will startle him and give him some pain and muscle contraction.
- For 1 to 4 seconds, he will experience muscle spasms and mental confusion.
- For 5 full seconds, he will experience loss of balance and voluntary muscle control along with total mental confusion and disorientation.
Always keep stun guns away from children since these are not toys. These are self defense items. Always check your batteries to ensure that you have a fully charged unit that is ready for use whenever you leave your house or your job.
Remember that the safety of you and your family members should always come first.

There is no doubt that crime can happen anytime, anywhere, even at instances and in places that you couldn’t imagine being a scene of a crime. There are many reasons why these people perform certain criminal acts, aside from the need for money. Some people do it because under the influence of drugs. Some people do crimes for the purpose of revenge. Others are under the control of a more powerful entity who give them no choice but to follow their commands. While others, are paid to do crimes and are considered as experts with doing it.
Since you are not really sure where the safest place could be, it is very important that you ensure your personal security. You may not be a public servant that needs to have your personal guards nor an actor that needs to have his personal assistant. Criminals are not very choosy as to whether their victim is a well known person or not. Even a normal person like yourself should be vigilant as even you could be a potential victim.
Even though it’s a great advantage to know some martial arts moves, you don’t really have to enroll in martial arts classes just to learn how to protect yourself from criminals. Knowing some of the basics of self defense might be enough to escape from the bad guys if they have you trapped. You don’t really have to learn these skills from a school or pay for someone to teach you how to defend yourself. Some television shows and documentaries discuss self defense and protecting yourself from many forms of crime. You can even read detailed steps in books or magazines. Some self defense techniques are even taught for free at certain localities.
If it makes you feel better and safer, you can buy pepper or mint spray. Just be aware that some places consider them illegal, so if you are not violating any rules in your locality, it’s okay to have these items on hand. Having a whistle would also be helpful in asking for help if you are in danger. It would also be advantageous to have a personal security alarm that you can activate if a criminal corners you. This will surely drive him away.
The most important thing that you should keep in mind whenever caught is these situations is to have your presence of mind intact. Succumbing to your fear can lead to even worse cases. If you feel nervous, you cannot think clearly which gives you more chances of becoming a victim. Once you have your presence of mind intact, you can plan and think better on how to get rid of these criminals or even catch someone’s attention for help and without risking your life in any way.
The next thing that you should realize is that your life is far more important compared to anything else. If it’s a matter of life and death, the best decision to make is to surrender whatever property you have in exchange for your life. You may have to work hard for the money and belongings later on to get them back, but you can never replace a life once it’s taken away. So when all else fails and if your personal security plans don’t work, it is better to give the criminal whatever he is asking for, just to save your life.

For many people happiness is an elusive butterfly in the garden of life. Imagine a young child in the garden on a summer day. The child sees a beautiful butterfly flitting from flower to flower. With eyes of wonder the child wants to see it close up, touch it, and hold it in their hands.
Bioterrorism has a history like anthrax attacks and is the most dreadful of all the probable massacres by terrorists and prompts us to instantiate the first step in bioterrorism preparedness by choosing the right safety gear like gas masks for bioterrorism protection
Despite the safety measures imposed by the government, bioterrorism is a reality and it is essential that citizens be prepared for possible attacks. Bioterrorism involves the use of harmful germs or other biological agents to create illness and fear among the general public. A number of biological weapons can be used in an attack of bioterrorism--most notably, many people are concerned with smallpox, anthrax, and ricin.
Some of these agents can be spread by people who have become infected, such as smallpox. Others, such as anthrax, only pose a threat to those who come in direct contact with them. Many of these agents can cause infection via inhalation. If there have been news advisories either on television or the radio, you can increase your safety and that of your family by wearing gas masks during reported bioterrorism attacks.
You should always be careful when you receive mail from an unknown sender, as biological weapons such as anthrax can be delivered by such means. The FBI recommends that you check the postmark on any package you were not expecting to see if it is from a foreign country.

If you or a family member have experienced abuse, you know how difficult it can be to get your life back on track after such a traumatic experience. Fortunately, there are a number of professionals and organizations that can help. Here is some information about abuse counselors that may be able to give you and your loved ones the confidence and healing you need to live productive lives
One of the first things that you may want to do is contact your local hospital to find out more about local abuse counselors that can meet your needs. If you or a loved one have had to go to the hospital to be treated for substance or alcohol abuse, your doctor can provide you with contact information for professional counselors and therapists in your area that will help you to go through exercises and rehabilitation activities that will help you to restore your health. Most states also have a specific department that deals with alcohol and drug abuse, so if you search your state’s website, you should find links to the information that you need. You may also have to travel in order to be matched up with the right abuse counselors–states like California and Arizona have some wonderful treatment centers that are especially for those that are struggling with alcohol or drug addictions, as well as a number of treatment centers for battered women.
If you’re not quite sure what you should be looking for in a counselor, you may also want to take a look at the NAADAC website. This site will let you know more about the organization, and will give you insight into the type of training that these counselors receive. You may even decide later that you want to be a counselor yourself. There is also a section on the technology that is used in addiction treatment, so you can find out how the counselors are using computer programs and software to improve the mental and physical health of addicts.
Your local church may also be a great place to find abuse counselors that can help you and your family to work through issues with substance abuse or domestic or sexual abuse. There may be professional counselors in your congregation, or your church’s office may be able to give you contact information for Christian counselors in the city that will offer professional counseling with a spiritual base.
If you want to know more about how abuse counselors are trained so that you can get the right help for your family, or if you think that you will want to become an abuse counselor, you can also visit sites like www.princetonreview.com for more information.

Now that your son or daughter has started dating, it’s time to reinforce some of the things you may have told them about sex and intimacy, so that they will make the right choices–even when you’re not around. But you should also make sure that you discuss abusive relationships with your teenager. Your child needs to know what to look for to determine if their partner is abusive, and these tips are necessary for adults as well.
Surprisingly, a number of teenagers are in abusive relationships, and their parents have no idea. The teen that is doing the abusing may be charming and friendly in front of family and friends, but will say and do things that are extremely harmful behind closed doors. You should let your teen know that the person they are dating should have the same temperament and attitude at all times; if their characters consistently changes, this could be a sign that abuse could begin to take place.
Abusive relationships can also start when one person tries to change the other. When your teen enters romantic relationships, it’s important to teach them that the person they are spending time with should be satisfied with them as they are. When a guy tries to make a girl dress differently so that he will ‘like her better’, or is pressuring her to do things that will make her look older, such as wear more makeup or change her hairstyle. This is definitely a warning sign; in some cases, if the girl refuses to make these changes, the male will attack her verbally or accuse her of not loving him. This could lead to physical force, so if you find that your daughter is doing things that are out of her character in terms of appearance, it’s time to further investigate the relationship.
Of course, other obvious signs of abusive relationships include depression symptoms and physical changes in your teen. If your son or daughter is wearing unusually warm clothing during the spring or summer, this could be to cover up wounds and bruises. If your teen becomes suddenly withdrawn, is no longer interested in spending any time with the family, doesn’t even want to hang out with friends, this could be an indication that abuse is taking place.
Of course, all of these signs are true for adults as well. If you have friends or other family members that have been in abusive relationships in the past, you should be looking for these indicators whenever he or she starts dating someone new, since individuals that are abused tend to date in patterns. Making sure that your teen or family member knows how to get in touch with someone that can help is also important; be sure to keep the numbers of the police department, as well as your state’s contact information for the Partnership for Domestic Violence in place where you can always find it.

When it comes to defending themselves from an attack, too many people confuse self defense situations with a fair fight. In order to protect yourself in the best way possible, you must understand the key differences between these two situations.
First, there are no rules when you are being attacked. You cannot expect your attacker to fight fair. Nothing is out, including weapons and “unfair” fighting tactics like eye gouging or hits below the belt. As the victim, you must keep this in mind, using every method you know to fight back against an attack. Ignore everything you’ve been taught about what makes a “fair” fight, because this is not one.
When force is used to compel somebody to participate in some sexual act then that is categorized as sexual abuse. Vulnerabilities in some individuals allow them to become victims.For example,a partner may be unable to reject participation due such things as pressure, alcohol influence, immaturity or disability.In family relationships such as marriages and friendships, it si not that easy to find this type of brutality.
The symptoms are not so obvious when someone is emotionally abused. Emotionally victimized persons may be financially and economically depended on the abusive person.The victim may be subjected to humiliation, embarrassment in public and isolation from friends and relatives,if found to be out of step. Sometimes threats to revel some painful state of affairs or preventing access to financial resources may be employed to pressure a victim.
Our sexuality is a complex process, far beyond the meeting of genitals; and it is a process that envelops the human being in a cocoon of sensuality. It begins in the womb with the fetus bathed in liquid warmth, nurtured by the very blood of its mother, and comforted by the ever-present beating of that nearby heart. Nine months of such intimacy from our earliest moments, leaves us craving that closeness for the rest of our lives. We search for it in relationship with living beings, and if we do not find it where it is most natural, we will substitute for it whatever will give us some comfort.
Our sexuality is as natural as any function of our body, and much more important, because it is so closely connected to our first sensual experience of consciousness in our mother’s womb. Our womb experience was totally sensual, and unless we find that sensuality outside the womb, we will not survive in any balanced human form. That is why children, if allowed to be what they naturally are, will crave to be held, touched and caressed. I once had a client who from the age of eight until the age of fifty-three when she completed her therapy, lived in a hell of shame and blame that caused her immune system to shut down, developing a terminal illness from which her doctors told her she would not recover. This lady, this eight-year-old child, deprived of normal human affection, gravitated to the only warmth and affection available in her cold and sterile environment, the gentle touch of the man who cleaned the floors of the of the hospital ward in which she was isolated. Over time he won her trust. He held her, he caressed her, took advantage of her trust and fondled her; but she looked forward to his presence every night, because his was the only affection she received during each long, lonely day.
Who of us would condemn her to death for longing for and permitting the touch of another human being? She condemned herself, because she was programmed unknowingly by those whom she looked up to as the bearers of ultimate truth, to believe that what she had done was despicable, unforgivable and worthy of a sentence of death. Without knowing it, we too, through our frightened and rigid belief systems about our sexuality, have condemned to a slow death the millions of children who have been molested. Many times, the abused childdoes not know they have been abused. Do we really know how many there are? The latest statistics say one in four, but those are only the ones that have been reported. It is time that they are released from their self-imposed death row. It is time that they understand that they were not to blame, even if they willingly permitted and even enjoyed, and looked forward to the touch of their molester. The worse abuse is not the abuse of the bodies, but that of the hearts and the very souls of these children, the emotional child abuse, by those who would have us fear one of our most basic human needs.
There is a massive distinction between the act of fighting and a self defense situation. Too many people think that such fights will be fair, but they won’t be. You have the right to protect yourself against violence by using reasonable force against an attacker. Doing so does not mean that you agree with fighting or with violence. You must defend yourself during these situations with a survival standpoint, disregarding any comparisons between what you are experiencing and a sport fight

Something needs to be done as I am hearing about more and more deaths at the hands of this countries (the UK) knife culture and the problem seems to be getting out of control.
I have had personal experience about Britain’s knife culture. When I was about eighteen years of age I went out for a few drinks with a number of my close friends. We all ending up getting quite drunk and I ended up walking home with three of these friends. On the way home we passed a group of four men all in their twenties. They pushed passed us in an aggressive way making a number of nasty comments at the same time.
Despite being rather worse for wear, myself and my friends did not react. We were however very shocked as only a few moments later these four youths started to run towards us in quite a frightening way. We all started to run but one of my friends stumbled and fell over. I looked behind me and saw that these four men had surrounded him and were starting to punch him. I was not really sure what to do and was quite surprised to find myself going to his aid, rather brave or stupid I now think.
Luckily for me the youths ran off with my friend lying on the floor in agony. As I reached him I noticed that there was blood on the pavement at the place where he was lay. I asked him if he was OK and he said that he was. He had been stabbed in the stomach or chest area but had not realised. He thought that he had only been punched.
We managed to get him to the hospital where we later found out that he had been very lucky, even though he did have a punctured lung.
Now I am by no means an expert in this area; I am acually involved on a daily basis with stammering, external doors and jobs in foster care however my advice to people is to leave your knives at home. By carrying a knife you could end a persons life, ruin the lives of that persons family and friends and even ruin your own life.
Over the last weekend, I have read about three murders on the streets of Britain via knife stabbings. I can not truly believe that the people carrying these knives left their houses with the intention to kill. The act was possibly influenced by alcohol or by some troubles in their own life. The majority of the people that commit these violent acts are likely to show remorse when they realise the scale of the damage they have caused; this however does little, if anything, to make the situation better. This however is too late for their victims.

Identity theft is higher than ever and the amount of people that got their personal identity stolen continues to rise. Identity theft service companies can be utilized to keep this crime from happening. ID theft occurs every day and is rampant.
You will see that there are a few different ways that these businesses can cover you. They keep a very close eye on your credit report and can notify you at once if there are any changes. In addition, they’ll be on the lookout for new applications for credit and applications for loans. It’s comforting to know that they are looking out for your credit.
Recovery service and insurance are both important features to take into consideration while choosing an identity theft service remedy. You’ll be covered in the event anyone takes your credit data and puts erroneous charges on your account. Most businesses will provide full recovery as well as a one million dollar protection policy. This defends you completely as well as it gives you guaranteed peace of mind. Restrictions usually apply, so always review the agreement prior to choosing a company.
Lost wallet protection is a benefit offered by credit identity theft companies which might interest you. This will cover you in the event your pocketbook is misplaced or stolen. Lost income is also covered by many businesses. There are many components that can assist you.
The cost of these programs work out to be about ten dollars a month. This will be a small price to part with for total protection. Identity thieves seem to be becoming trickier when trying to take your identity and these programs provide a defense for consumers. I believe that the programs pay off in the end regardless if you have to put in a claim or not.
Since identity theft is increasing, companies that offer this kind of protection would be a wise choice. You can research them via the Internet to get more information. Compare what each plan has to offer and choose wisely. With any luck, you will not need their service, but one can’t be too cautious.
