Do you believe there are certain habits that increase your chances of being victimized by violent crime?

[jennifer_bloom]

I've been looking for patterns in perpetrators for several years through stories I learn about on the news or on YouTube and some common habits I see that increase the likelihood of early death are

- cheating

- wasteful spending

- attention seeking actions like virtue signalling, posting guarded information online, showing off your body to people you don't know, revealing secrets because you do not understand that some forms of knowledge should only be shared with a privileged few

- scamming behaviours

- illegal behaviours like drug use or violence or unacceptable bed side conduct

- unhealthy habits like staying out late, drinking too much, getting drunk, gambling debts, meth addictions

- people who look for easy money like illegal deals, illegal sales, morally corrupt methods of getting riches, using manipulation to gain income instead of working an honest job like McDonalds or high school janitor etc...

- befriending known offenders and wicked people because they offer you benefits you did not pay for like rides or free meals or invitations to parties to meet guys etc...

I agree with some of those points. Most people who fall foul to violence tend to associate with bad people. Another group are those who don't seem to a sense of awareness to danger. The type who wander alone down dark alleys or see everyone as equals and don't avoid the type of people sensible folk do.

Of course. Being involved in the drug trade is a good way to raise one’s risk of being a violent crime victim.

Item 3. I try to establish familiarity first.

Well, if I enjoyed walking in dark places known for violence, that would be a clear hint.
Maybe I enjoy calling people names, or showing off endlessly in front of every group?
Yes, clearly.
