Even the smallest amount of information that you can read and remember is a

You never know how this could help you one day, so let’s not keep you waiting.
To start off, we’re going to go over some important signs that may signal you to
the fact that something could be going on.
There are always a bunch of other signs that maybe you didn’t even think of...but
don’t you worry. We’ve got the info here for you to learn.

Suspicious people that don’t belong
While this may seem like a given, most people go through life day by day and don’t
take notice of the people around them.
So this may be an easy one to spot, you have to be paying attention to notice this.
Keep watch in your neighborhood, at work, or just out in public for people that just
seem to be out of place or acting suspicious.
Inquiring about information
Via a phone call, mail, email, or in person.
A singular person or an organization may
attempt gather information on specific
people, the military, certain standard
operations.
If you come across this and feel like there is
something funny about it, be alert.
Security
People may try to test out security systems or procedures to see how strong it is or
determine how long it takes people to take action towards a breach.

Monitoring
Take notice of people watching, recording, listening, etc. They could be monitoring
daily activities and taking notes on a person or company’s routines.
Supplies
Be extremely wary of people who are buying dangerous supplies or are gathering

weapons, items to make weapons, etc.
Practice
What does this mean?
Watch out for people wandering aimlessly in areas that they should not be. It is
possible that they are practicing for something or planning out routes.
One of the easiest ways to spot something that isn’t quite right is taking notice of
people checking entries that they shouldn’t be around, people placing strange bags
in places and then leaving them, or even people that are wearing a large amount
of clothing as though they may be hiding something.
With all of these signs, it is important to
note that if you suspect or see anything like
this that raises your attention, it is always
best to report it.
It’s not silly if you have that gut feeling that something is wrong
and it could possibly save lives.

Let’s talk about some of the places that are more likely for something to happen.
It’s just a matter of fact, high profile places are going to be larger targets, so we
just want you to have the knowledge and think about it.
At Risk Locations:
Airports
Airports seem to be a huge target, especially international airports because tons
of people are flying from all over every single day. It is a place that would have a
large impact.
Government facilities
Military or civilian, government locations are a important places that would be a
high risk.
Large cities
Not only just large cities, but important cities, like capitals, etc would be at a high-
er risk than a small country town that no one has heard of.
They would want a place with a higher impact.

Important Landmarks or Monuments
Anything that is important to us as citizens has potential to tampered with.
Mail
Unfortunately, even some terrorists use the mail couriers to possibly send explo-
sive or dangerous items.
Important gatherings
This one may not seem like it would be high threat, but it could be a place with a
large population of people or an important event.
A political rally, we had the Boston marathon bombs, etc.
Anywhere that brings together a large population.
What are some examples of acts of terror?
Although there are SO many possible things that could occur, we’ll go over what
we think are the top 3 most prominent examples
Cyber attacks
These are becoming more and more prevalent in
today’s society and with all the technology that is
out there.
Threats of terrorism and bomb threats
The threat of terror is one of the major scares about
terrorism. The thought of what these people can
or would do is terrorizing in itself.
Shootings
It seems as though you see active shooters in the news more and more. Unfortunately,
this is placed in the list of the 3 three major examples.

So the questions remains…
What can you do to prepare for possible terrorist acts?
The first step in this is what you are doing right now, educating yourself.
You’ve taken the leap on learning the details of this which is great, but there are
still other steps you can take to further your knowledge.
You need to be aware of your surroundings.
Preparation:
1. Sit down with your friends and family and determine what possible events could
happen in your neighborhood and community.
2. Once you’ve unveiled any potential threats that could possibly occur, develop a
plan together for each potential threat and decide on what you would do.
3. Assign everyone a role in the plan and
make sure they know and understand that
role.
4. Lastly, practice your plan and memorize it.
Inthescenariothatsomethinghashappened,
it is important to follow the protocol that
you and your friends/family developed.

What do you do if you don’t have a plan?
First and foremost, try your best to remain calm.
(I know this could be difficult, but think about it. You are not going to be any help
or use to anyone if you are freaking out. If you are ok and you are freaking out,
then you are not helping those who really need you)
Stay Calm
Check yourself and your family for any injuries.
Shut off any damaged utilities and turn the main gas valve off and get everyone
outside to regroup together.
If you’ve deemed that your location has no damage, turn on your radio, TV, etc
and listen for any news or instructions by your local officials.
Depending on what has happened, mental and physical clean up for the affected
area can possibly take a very long time.
Try to alert your families that you are ok and prepare yourself to work hard to
move forward.
We are going to loop back for a second to something that we touched base on
earlier.
In the event that an act of terror occurs, there are generally two types of people.
Those who freeze and those who take action.

Now, who do you think are the ones who make a difference and help?
...That’s right, those who take action.
So my point in this is that your strongest weapon in the face of danger, is your
brain.
You can to mentally keep yourself strong and keep yourself going in order to
save yourself and potentially save others.
As said previously, those who freeze or those who freak out, are only going to
be a burden to others and they’ll be the ones that the ones who take action
are helping.
