i used to have a short talk with any new-to-town coworkers or students at my unis -- there were many of them
i'd stress that if they were ever anywhere in the city & had the sense that something was wrong, or someone was suspicious, they should GTFO immediately. even if that meant breaking into a run or looking foolish or possibly racist. to just get out of a situation if you had any inclination of danger.
Baltimore has problems. but it prepared me so well to deal w the unexpected

I remember seeing a training video
Of a US Marine, demonstarting how to win a #knife fight.
It was excellent!
The Marine was a real expert in knife fights.
Step one, the assailant pulls the knife on you.
Step two. You turn around 180 degrees, showing your back to the guy with a knife.
Step three (this is where you win). You sprint as fast as possible away from the guy with a knife.
@n_dimension @rustoleumlove HAHAHA! Excellent.
