1
If somebody tries to force you into a car *never* get in. Take your chances with whatever you're being threatened with. If you end up in the car your odds of survival are *exponentially* worse.

2
You can walk and keep your head on a swivel. When you’re in a bad neighborhood looking around and either eye contact or making sure people see that YOU see them can be as much a deterrent as anything. Be alert

3
Try not to look lost. Mind your own business. Keep walking.

4
Never get in a knife fight. The looser dies in the street and the winner dies in the ambulance.

5
Do not engage with crazy people

6
Be on alert if asked for innocent things, like telling someone the time, there are a hundred tricks you’ve never heard of

7
always trust your instincts and be aware of your surroundings.

8
Know your surroundings and don’t be afraid to “make a scene”, if you find yourself in a tough spot.

9
Never trust a water-filled pothole.

10
Take nothing from anyone ever . Food , drinks , sweets. The red apple.

11
It's not worth getting into an altercation if you can help it. You might be bringing fists to a knife or gun fight.

12
if a stranger tells you that you have nice shoes. NEVER LOOK DOWN.

13
When mixing with people in a social settings don’t give out personal details. It’s ok to be kind but very vague. Nobody needs to know what street you live on or where you work. If they don’t respect your boundaries, move along. ( had a stalker, from my Karate club ! Found out my location and would flip my mail slot on the door open, looking inside. Woke up one evening to him standing over me. )

14
Never look lost

15
Pay attention to your surroundings. Don't keep your head down on your phone or wear headphones.

16
If you're a woman in trouble another woman is far more likely to help you

17
If someone were to god forbid pull a gun on you and rob you, just give them what they want. There's no reason to risk your life trying to be a hero all for your wallet and phone.

18
Be aware of your surroundings. You don't have to be paranoid, but just get a feeling for the general flow of things. If something about that flow changes, you should start looking for the reason behind the changes. That rule goes for basically anything.

19
In a street fight, there’s no such things as rules. There is no fairness in a fight, do what you can to survive.

20
Look both ways before crossing

21
There is no legitimate reason to stop for a stranger who needs to ask you something. Keep it pushing, you don’t owe anyone your attention. Criminals and con-artists rely on your politeness.

22
If it’s rush hour, and every subway car is packed like sardines, never enter the one empty subway car. You didn’t suddenly get lucky. Trust me on this.

23
Do not answer questions that no one asked.

24
Don't wear your politics on your shirt or head

25
Don’t f**k around if you really don’t want to find out

26
Navigate before departure, and look like you know where you're going.

27
While you may not see your kindness as a weakness, prepare for others to take it that way.

28
Trust must be earned. Never give it blindly.

29
stand up straight with your shoulders back

30
lock your car doors as soon as you've opened your door to get in. immediately. not after you've gotten in, but as soon as your door is open for you.

31
Don’t entertain ignorance & or match ignorance with more ignorance.

32
Be emotionally prepared for trouble....sometimes going out of your way to avoid it will actually perpetuate it.

33
Be careful when eating food given to you by strangers. Those nuts may not be what you think, etc...
