We all have a stake in crime
prevention. As tax payers
crime costs us money and we
must be interested enough to
invest in salvaging people
especially preventing young
people from becoming first of
fenders. If we believe in
justice and rehabilitation we
will naturally assist in the
prevention of crime instead
of leaving it up to our Security
Police Force the FBI or local
authorities. We 'you and I'

citizens" by standing on the
sidelines while the criminal
does his or her thing. Nobody
wants to be a "fink" but it's
only good sense to holler
"ouch" when you'er hurt
and the crook is hitting you
where it hurts in the pocket-
book and by stealing our pride
as individuals! If the thief
knows that you're watching
the chances are that he'll be
reluctant to put the pinch on
pads pens or pocketbooks
and if you do see him
in the act you're only pro
tecting yourself and your tax
dollar by blowing the whistle
on the person who is taking
your daily bread. And you're
not being an informer when
you ask the local fuzz to assist
you in bringing a criminal
(and that's what he is) to
justice ... you're taking care
of yourself and all of the other
honest people who are being
victimized by a predator.
Now after all that and in
the event that you want to
protect you and yours from
the unprincipled and lawless
here are a few tips that will
apply to your worksite as well
as your home.
1. Don't leave valuables in

don't even leave them in a

2. Don't leave valuable

3. Don't flash what appears
to be large sums of money
in the presence of strangers
(friends either they might
want to make a touch!).
4. Don't leave doors unlock
ed when you leave your home
unoccupied.
5. And for goodness' sake
don't leave your house keys
in the mail box or under the
"welcome" mat some
schnook might feel welcome.
6. Don't go away and let

7. Don't close all the cur
