This is a big book about crime that goes all the way from how to deal with getting hassled and arrested to how to protect yourself from all manner of crimes then I talk about jobs in the law enforcement-criminal justice fields which are huge and growing all the time.

I was mugged when I was about five.  An older guy in the neighborhood walked past me, turned around, put me in a headlock and wanted to steal whatever I had but I had nothing on me.

When I was about ten, I'm driving my little bike down the street.  Some big black guy jumps on behind me and tells me to stay cool.  He pedals about five blocks then gets off.  He wanted to get somewhere but he was too stupid to know he was abducting me and scaring the shit out of me.  He wasn't aware that he was terrorizing me. 

I realized that there are evil people in the world who don't know and don't care when they inflict pain on others.

I act friendly and all that but I don't know who is thinking about sticking a knife in my back.  People think they can read people but the con artists and evil doers have perfected their charming exteriors to fool people.  They're really good.  Just look at all the middle-aged women getting ripped off by con artist lovers who ask them for money and they give it.  No self-respecting guy asks a woman for money.  If a guy asks you for money, that should be the end of that relationship.

I watch true life crime shows where I see friends and family doing evil things to their supposed close intimates.

I'll bet everybody reading this was ripped off at least three times in their lives.

I used to help homeless people by giving them a place to stay or giving them a maintenance job around my place.  I don't anymore because a homeless guy is generally a desperate guy. 

People rob other people on the street for the chance of getting a few bucks.  They don't know what this random pedestrian walking his dog might have on him but they might kill him for five dollars or even nothing.

I'm a cynical man in general.  I believe that if you live 50 years in modern-day United States or Canada and you don't see the greed, selfishness, evil and betrayal regularly in daily life then you have lived in some kind of fantasy world up until now.

I'm friendly and sociable.  I act like I trust people but I don't.  I don't trust the sales guy at the store, my local politician, the bank manager, the priest or the guy I'm talking to on the street. 

If somebody knocks at my door at eleven o'clock at night saying their car broke down and I open it, I'm asking for a crime to be committed against me.

There are certain things you don't do anymore because you can't trust people.  Ted Bundy, the serial killer, had a friendly-looking face and manner.  Charming evil people quickly learn to use their looks and affable manners to get people off guard then go in for the kill.  It happens all the time.  Read your local newspaper.
