If someone attempts a robbery at you, do not react because if you manage to win the aggressor he will then be back with a pistol or a knife, or bystanders will help him in certain areas.

Cars: never open your windows to any solicitations, do not ajut your wrist out of the window at semaphores carryng watches or rings, do not altercate, do not react if rearended, do not react if soembody scratches your car body, use an old car as new ones won't be yours for much.
