Personal Security
Jul 18th, 2007, 1:15pm
 
What are peoples plans about personal security to keep away those nasty bandits?
 
I presume no1 here is going the Paris Hilton route and will have a big black man named Bobo with them!
 
I have gone for a nice old 5 wood golf driver, am also looking for my metal baseball bat which seems to be hiding somewhere in my garage!
 
Anyone got any novel ideas?

i wanted to take a big knife for show but think the border controls may woop my bottom if they see it. I may just rely on the 6 ft 4" of lean and mean Paddy, (my co driver).  He can either fight them, or be sold to them. Either works for me.  If you have a weapon you're more likely to get ass kicked yourself. Smiley

Keep the doors locked and windows up.
 
I've heard storys of people grabbing and pinching people's ear lobes in traffic, and pulling them out of the car.

|Yea, keep the doors locked an dwindows up when stopped in traffic. Trying to "protect" yourself will practically always make the situation far far worse then what it could be.

what i find staggaring about your posting crusade is that you are actually giving real responses to whats been said before. Its amazing you have enough material (and time!) to keep posting this much...
 
I'm impressed....

We have a nice lock knife hidden under the sun visor.
 
I'm sure I'll be able to find a suitable stick to swing at bandits aswell.
 
Dose anyone think we will get into any hairy situations?

on a serious note though.. where are you likely to see bandits? A particular country? In cities?
