Just a gentle reminder as we approach the 2011 Holidays (Thanksgiving / Christmas) season to remain vigilant, keep your head on a swivel, and stay armed where legally permitted while you're out and about doing your holiday shopping.
It's no secret that our economy remains in the toilet and likewise no secret that "crimes of opportunity" increase as folks start feeling the pinch of bad times, no money and a sense of pressure to provide material things to themselves or their families. Please stay mindful of what's going on around you and ensure that you do not make yourself an easy target for a robbery, or worse, by failing to pay attention to your environment or failing to use common sense about how you conduct your business.
