It's that time of year again. Halloween, the time for ghosts and ghouls to go move about in the world. It's also the time when everyone can dress up in their costumes and hit the town, bouncing from party to party. This is just a little reminder that even though you're having fun, you still need to stay safe, so let's go over the basics!
- If you're going to a large party, try not to go alone. Like a zombie apocalypse, there is safety in numbers! Having someone there who can watch your back is a definite plus. They can even act as buffers if someone is creeping you out, and thus are excellent at removals.
- Remember, never set your drink down! It is really easy for someone to spike your drink, and being drugged is not a good experience and is incredibly dangerous. Nothing is scarier than losing time, or not knowing if something bad has happened to you. Not the good kind of fright you want to experience.
- There is nothing wrong with arming yourself! A taser is an incredibly useful weapon that is easy to use and easily carried. You don't even necessarily have to physically use it. The mere sound of the electricity sparking in the air is enough to dissuade most would be attackers.
That’s it everyone! Don't forget while you're out having fun that you still need to remain safe and vigilant. It's important to be able to actually look forward to the next Halloween, and the one after that, until you can start teaching these same lessons to your own kids. Stay safe and have a happy and scary (in a good way) Halloween!
