This stuff is always a good thing to read every year or so.
Anyway, anybody forwarding this should remove the "crying baby" part.

Because of recent abductions in daylight hours, refresh yourself of these
things to do in an emergency situation... This is for you, and for you to
share with your wife, your children, everyone you know. After reading these
9 crucial tips , forward them to someone you care about. It never hurts to
be careful in this crazy world we live in.
Tip from Tae Kwon Do : The elbow is the strongest point on your body. If you
are close enough to use it, do!
Learned this from a tourist guide in New Orleans. If a robber asks for your
wallet and/or purse, Do not hand it to him. Toss it away from you....
chances are that he is more interested in your wallet and/or purse than you,
and he will go for the wallet/purse. Run like mad in the other direction.
If you are ever thrown into the trunk of a car, kick out the back tail
lights and stick your arm out the hole and start waving like crazy. The
driver won't see you, but everybody else will. This has saved lives.
Women have a tendency to get into their cars after shopping, eating,
working, etc., and just sit (doing their checkbook, or making a list, etc.
Don't do this!!) The predator will be watching you, and this is the perfect
opportunity for him to get in on the passenger side, put a gun to your head,
and tell you where to go. As soon as you get into your car, lock the doors
and leave..
If someone is in the car with a gun to your head do not drive off, repeat:
DO NOT DRIVE OFF! Instead gun the engine and speed into anything, wrecking
the car. Your Air Bag will save you. If the person is in the back seat they
will get the worst of it. As soon as the car crashes bail out and run. It is
better than having them find your body in a remote location.
A few notes about getting into your car in a parking lot, or parking garage:
Be aware. look around you, look into your car, at the passenger side floor,
and in the back seat
If you are parked next to a big van, enter your car from the passenger door.
Most serial killers attack their victims by pulling them into their vans
while the women are attempting to get into their cars.
Look at the car parked on the driver's side of your vehicle, and the
passenger side. If a male is sitting alone in the seat nearest your car, you
may want to walk back into the mall, or work, and get a guard/policeman to
walk you back out.
It is always better to be safe than sorry - and better paranoid than dead
Always take the elevator instead of the stairs. (Stairwells are horrible
places to be alone
and the perfect crime spot. This is especially true at night!!)
If the predator has a gun and you are not under his control, always run! The
predator will only hit you (a running target) 4 in 100 times; And even then,
it most likely will not be a vital organ. RUN - preferably in a zig-zag
pattern!
As women, we are always trying to be sympathetic - stop!!It may get you
raped, or killed. Ted Bundy, the serial killer, was a good-looking, well
educated man, who alwaysplayed on the sympathies of unsuspecting women. He
walked with a cane, or a limp, and often asked "for help" into his vehicle
or with his vehicle, which is when he abducted his next victim.
Another Safety Point: Someone just told me that her friend heard a crying
baby on her porch
the night before last, and she called the police because it was late and she
thought it was weird.
The police told her "Whatever you do, do not open the door."
The lady then said that it sounded like the baby had crawled near a window,
and she was worried that it would crawl to the street and get run over. The
policeman said, "We already have a unit on the way, whatever you do, do not
open the door." He told her that they think a serial killer has a baby's cry
recorded and uses it to coax women out of their homes thinking that someone
dropped off a baby He said they have not verified it, but have had several
calls
by women saying that they hear baby's cries outside their doors when they're
home alone at night.
Please pass this on and do not open the door for a crying baby ---- This
e-mail should probably be tak en seriously because the Crying Baby theory
was mentioned on America 's Most Wanted this past Saturday when they
profiled the serial killer in Louisiana.
