A Safety Tip For Everyone

Thought Id share this e-mail with ya'll: ;-)

Good advice...I have never heard of this before but it might be of some
benefit for others.

Put your car keys beside your bed at night. If you hear a noise outside
your home or someone trying to get in your house, just press the panic
button for your car. The alarm will be set off, and the horn will
continue
to sound until either you turn it off or the car battery dies. This tip
came from a Neighborhood Watch coordinator.

Next time you come home for the night and you start to put your keys
away,think of this: It's a security alarm system that you probably
already
have and requires no installation. Test it. It will go off from most
everywhere inside your house and will keep honking until your battery
runs
down or until you reset it with the button on the key chain.

It works if you park in your driveway or garage. If your car alarm goes
off
when someone is trying to break in your house, odds are the burglar or
rapist won't stick around....after a few seconds all the neighbors will
be
looking out their windows to see who is out there and sure enough the
criminal won't want that. And remember to carry your keys while walking
to
your car in a parking lot. The alarm can work the same way there.....

This is something that should really be shared with everyone.

Seriously...very good advice.

~tongue firmly in a salty cheek~
PLUS....the HONKING of the horn will muffle the sound of your Mister Smith &
Wesson blowing the SOB's a** away...

Chance favors the prepared mind.


////but...that's just my opinion\\\\

Great tip! I love it!

Much more practical than the "large size hunting boots on top of the guns n ammo magazine by the back door" security system.
