She\u2019s black, she\u2019s female, and she\u2019s wearing a hoodie and the security guard refuses to show his ID, but wants to see hers.\u00a0 I\u2019d call the cops on HIM. The problem with security guards is that they forget that they are supposed to call the po-po re: suspicious characters. And why would this jerk not<\/em> show her his ID, but demanded hers?<\/p>\n

She is visibly upset by what happened, but instead of sniffling about it, she could do several things, among them:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. a) get a dog to accompany her on her morning promenades. I used to take my German Shepherd with me when I went out running after work at night in Chicago, 3 miles total. Did Piggy a lot of good and made me feel secure. No one is going to mess with your pooch. Having a 4-legger with you as a running mate tends to generate respect and create a distance. It also should indicate that you\u2019re just out walkin\u2019 the dog.<\/li>\n
  2. b) find that old reflective PT belt or go buy one at a surplus store and wear that (or a couple of them), along with sweats\/tees that say USAF\/whatever Vet.<\/li>\n
  3. c) drop the hoodie and wear something else on the head that reflects light, e.g. Military Veteran<\/li>\n
  4. d) call 911, or offer to do so if the guy won\u2019t leave you alone. Just do it. You have to be a bit bold without going overboard, and saying calmly, \u2018Shall I call the police?\u2019 is as good as anything else.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    If I lived in Chicago now, I\u2019d have two 4-leggers with me. As it is, if things get bad up here in my kingdom, I\u2019m getting a dog, period. Well, maybe two, and call one of them Mai Gun and the other one Bullet. My two cats are more useless than sofa pillows.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
