Where can I get a personal (safety) alarm in Singapore? The personal safety alarm is encouraged to be used by the police force in time of danger, the alarm can be activated and would sound really loudly. Anyone has any idea on where I can get them specifically in Singapore? Thanks!
How can laws ment to maintain personal safety be constitutional? Where do legislators get the power to make laws such as ones that force a person to wear a seatbelt or not allowing the sale of fireworks to people over 18? I can see why there are laws to make us safe from others ex: no speeding because you might hurt someone else) but if your old enough shouldent you, not the government be in charge of your safety?

How can I get my brother to take his personal safety more seriously? Whenever my brother goes out with friends he always walks home alone in the dark. We live (we share a house cos he's 18 and I'm 20) in a bad area and so he could get robbed, raped or even killed. Whenever I talk to him about it just laughs at me and just says sis don't worry. How do I get him to take his safety more seriously cos I'm worried one day I may get the dreaded call from the police
What is your experience with personal safety in Gdansk? We've heard various accounts of how safe it is for western travellors to Poland. Are some parts of the city safer than others? Are you comfortable walking around at night? Thank you for all your insight. I look forward to visiting. We will be there in June, 2007
What suggestions do you have for personal safety in times of possible danger? I like to take night-time walks (I'm male, not female, which excludes rape scenarios for the most part) and some places (I have noticed) have a little "Activity" which maybe dangerous for me. I am sixteen years old. This question is aimed at anyone willing to answer, yet ideas from criminals would be appreciated, so I know the activities of common offenders of the law. Murderers, rapists, and all! Come forth! Tell me not of your crimes, but of your methods. Thank your...
Why does the government think they can mandate personal safety in every situation? So now there will be a 'restructuring' of how stores can advertise for holiday sales, increased security measures, more costs to the consumer to pay for these changes...blah blah blah. All because ONE person gets killed during a rampage of lowlife losers. Hey! Someone got killed driving a car today? Why don't we just make new laws to protect everyone? We can add rubber bumpers 12" thick around every car and every obstacle in the road. The libs have taken over the world.
Do you feel your country has let you down in regards to personal safety? Think about the lax gun laws and high crime, the incidents following Hurricane Katrina, susceptibility to terror by being at the forefront of world politics. Is this in the best interests of the people compared to how other western countries are run? How will the new government protect you?
Which do you think is the bigger threat to personal safety? Which do you think is the bigger threat to personal safety of the "average American" (however you define that)- Al Queda type groups or criminal gangs coming from South of the border? I'm just curious to see what people on here think. Hey Peace you stupid puta!!! I'm NOT a WASP!!! I'm a freaking Catholic 2nd Gen Mexican American living what alot of white people call "the barrio". Don't believe me...look up my previous posts Q/As. I'm just curious to see what people think. I myself don't feel unsafe anymore or less. It's white people like you make me want to stay in my racists' ways. It annoys me very much that you think a Mexican can't ever be online and on these boards. At least that's what I'm thinking when you say I'm white...LOL!!
Does Republicans believe in giving up personal freedom for safety ? Republicans believe in giving up personal freedom for safety (Patriot Act, warrantless spying, toture) and they believe in unregulated business ( no min wage, no environmental regs) Dems believe in rights over safety (no spying without a warrant) and a well regulated ecomomy (min wage, strong env ands safety laws, oversight of markets to curb abuse and speculation)) to stop the abuses we've seen in the last few years. what do you think?
This is something that has bugged me for a long time. Would you be willing to sacrifice your personal safety- to save a few seconds? The problem I'm talking about is something either you do or you've seen - Whenever a vehicle you're riding in comes to a stop and you are leaving the vehicle - why do you STAND UP BEFORE THE VEHICLE STOPS? Planes, buses, and many others I'm sure. Are you in that much of a hurry that's you're willing to injure yourself? Sometimes when I drive a shuttle I'm tempted to hit the brakes a little harder for people that do that (and our signs specifically say that we aren't responsible for injury if you're not wearing a seat belt) and if you're standing up you're obviously not wearing one. Your thoughts? I said hit the brakes a LITTLE harder. I'm not trying to deliberately injure anyone. But yeah it seems so acceptable to not have any common sense these days.. What if someone backs out in front of me? What if someone pulls out in front of me? Or I have to make a panic stop for whatever reason? Should they be allowed to sue if that happens too?
if my life is in danger and i feel threatened for my personal safety and of those around me; who do i contact? if my life is in danger and i feel threatened for my personal safety and it cannot be the police department as they have let me down and i have NO faith or respect in my local law enforcement or their superiors; i turned to them years ago and they let me down continuously... they became involved... and, as such the law enforcement and it's chain of command from the bottom all the way to the very top in arizona have betrayed me... my only thought is the fbi...
How can I ensure my personal info safety on an old computer? I have an old computer that crashed a few years ago. I have been thinking of donating/trashing it, but I don't want any info that I have/had on the computer to be able to be restored if someone gets the thing working. I have removed my hard drive from the PC. Is this all I will have to do?
What kind of scary things have your children/Grandchildren done that risked their personal safety? I thought it would be a good idea to post these things that actually happen, might save a life. One four yr. old Grand son has done all this in the past 6 months at his own home, husband and I have worried more than once. Followed the ice cream truck for 1/4 mile while his Dad was watching him outside. Got up at 5AM, had car keys and was sitting in the car, waiting to go to work with Daddy. Had the garage door open after Daddy went to work at 5AM and Mom didn't know. By himself standing by the street. Has locked both parents out of the house numerous times, but was able to find the keys or to unlock the door. They finally got wise and recently put in deadbolt locks. They have a front loading washer and dryer which he loads and unloads himself. He only weighs 33 pounds. Now, let me hear your scary adventures.

Question about urban vs rural dwellers? Personal safety question? I live in the middle of a large city, and love the convenience-walking distance to so much. But honestly the biggest reason is safety, yeah there's audible gunshots and crack dealers around. But isn't that better than the threat of bigfoot, zombies, and ufos? They run rampant out in the country.

The little things: Animal Safety or Personal Purity? I think I have ended up in the minority on this vegetarian topic. I have heard of many v*gans who will buy pre-packaged products like raman noodles or some such and throw away the meat packet… or buy jeans that have the big, leather label and cut off the leather part. Those are smaller examples… I wish I could think of a bigger one at the moment. In my world, buying meat is as good as eating it. I do not mean they are not v*gan, I just mean that you contributed money to the slaughtering of animals and told a company to make more. I am only a vegetarian, so I do not have a ton of room to talk, but I feel that not contributing to the product is as important as not consuming the product. Vegetarians and vegans, what are your thoughts? Did I miss something? :) EDIT #1- I am curious, not judging. I like getting others' thoughts on topics. EDIT #2- Please no rude answers Good points so far... I guess I should mention that I am talking about ethical v*gans. :) I just realized I have been putting my asterisk in the wrong place. Sorry. @Aladdin I'm not quite sure if picking out the meat is the same thing. If I pick the pepperoni out of a pizza, I am still consuming the leftover fat/grease etc. of a pig, which is not vegetarian. I think with the extra packets etc., personal purity is maintained because the meat never touched the noodles... Hence, personal purity being more important than animal safety. Any thoughts? Apparently "veg*ns" is a quicker way of writing "vegans and vegetarians." :)
Would you risk your physical/financial safety for the sake of personal dignity or morality? Examples: As a pro-lifer, would you adopt as many children as possible to keep them from being aborted, risking you putting yourself in the poor house? As an environmentalist, would you purchase all the latest conservation technology, at the unbelievably high costs? As one who supports peace, would you be willing to see the US disarm before any other country agrees or even suggests such a thing?
Women~What is the best piece of advice for personal safety you have learned? Self-defense is 90% risk reducing strategies, not how to fight back. Prevent something from happening in the first place, ladies. http://www.rad-systems.com/ is the course I have taken several times. My kids are also radKIDS. My advice...while dating, do not allow the man to drive. If you drive the car, you have control and the ability to get yourself out of a bad situation if the need arises. You could also just meet him at the destination. Which is more important, manners/tradition or your safety? If it were my teenage daughter, I would make sure she has sure transportation to safety if she needs it. I just answered a question that really got me thinking about what I was trained to do and wondered if anyone else has good sound advice to share.
ICan you help me with warehouse safety promotion? I need to promote safety on a bulletin board at work. Size is not an issue on the board. It is to prevent injuries, and or death. The warehouse is grocery (cold/dry) with lots of power equipment. It is high paced production. This board will be the first visual that workers see when they enter the work building. Our top 4 injuries are foot/ankle/back/hands. It needs to be a strong promotion on personal safety. I am instructed to do this board every 10 days. I can use a digital camera/clip art/photographs of injuries (no faces) and words phrases.
Tasor or Mase? How high voltage is enough for personal safety? I want to get something for my wife for personal safety. A knife and a gun are far to much for her, so the next step is mase or a taser. Which ones are better? I realize they can both be used against but what are the pros and cons? What are the options? The Tasers I was looking at are 200,000-900,000 Volts. Voltage isn't important, its the amps that are important so how do I decide which one to get? Opinions prefered. Thanks in advance. (I also live in PA)
Where can I find info on Swimming Pool Safety Contracts.? I have recently installed an in-ground pool and the neighbors comment on how much their children want to go swimming. I would like to have a clear and concise contract available for them to sign and agree to various provisions. ie. A parent or guardian must be watching, must provide personal safety flotation device, no running etc... Is there a web-site or general contract form that I could use as a template?
Any personal experience with the interference caused on the 800 mhz fcc public safety band by Sprint Nextel? So Sprint Nextel is supposed to stop using the frequency that Nextel is on by mid next year. The reason is that it is causing interference on police, fire, and other public safety radios. I am REALLY curious to know exactly what this interference is. Is it just static? Can you hear voices of people using their Nextels? Do you get it all the time or just certain times or areas of the city? There are never any more details in the news articles except for "causes interference". Thanks!
