funny i was just reading an email from a friend of mine.
Please read - notice on car (not a joke)]
Warning....!!!!
Just last weekend on Friday night we parked in a public
parking area. As we drove away I noticed a sticker on the
rear window of the car. When I took it off after I got home,
it was a receipt for gas. Luckily my friend told me not to
stop as it could be someone waiting for me to get out of the
car. Then we received this email yesterday:
"WARNING FROM POLICE
BEWARE OF PAPER ON THE BACK WINDOW OF YOUR VEHICLE--NEW WAY TO
DO CARJACKINGS (NOT A JOKE)"
Heads up everyone! Please, keep this circulating... You walk
across the parking lot, unlock your car and get inside. You
start the engine and shift into Reverse.
When you look into the rear view mirror to back out of your
parking space, you notice a piece of paper stuck to the middle
of the rear window. So, you shift into Park, unlock your
doors, and jump out of your car to remove that paper (or
whatever it is) that is obstructing your view. When you reach
the back of your car, that is when the carjackers appear out
of nowhere, jump into your car and take off. They practically
mow you down as they speed off in your car.
And guess what, ladies? I bet your purse is still in the car.
So now the carjacker has your car, your home address, your
money, and your keys. Your home and your whole identity are
now compromised! ! |

When leaving a club, I usually walk around my car first to make sure there isn't anything on my windows. I also look around before gettng in my car. I need to be even more careful now cuz I usually travel alone.
The other thing I don't do is take my purse with me. It stays home along with my fat wallet. I only carry, my license, atm card, and maybe a few dollars.
During these messed up times, we all need to be aware of our surroundings even more so and DON'T trust anyone!
About a week or so ago, I was leaving a shopping mall parking lot when I noticed this guy trying to get my attention with some battery cables. He was signaling me to give him a jump. Alittle light went on in my brain which said keep going. As I drove away, I was thinking that maybe he was up to something no good. Sorry dude but I ain't stopping for you, ask a guy to help out if you really need a jump! |

| How do you go about carrying one of these pistols when you're going into a club? You obviously can't take it in or leave it in a bush... I've seen some crazy things happen before and accidentally went down an alley near Vanguard once and had some dudes following me but I lost em. Shame the cops don't care about the people over there :rolleyes: |

Carry small of the back so it looks like you are reaching for your wallet and double tap that SOB between the eyes. |

Even if it does, you shouldn't let your guard down. |

that i don't know... but its beside the fact that this can happen to anyone.
just letting everyone know to becareful! |
was he alone?
if so, that was the problem.
It was in essence his mistake if he was alone. I have walked around hollyweird alone at night but NEVER alone. Well i used to run around alone until i had an "encounter." But they only left bruises to the head. I always keep my NBCS (a stick) in my car. |
