Street Piracy By Another Name



Just like European pirates of old and African ones now off the coast of Somalia, streets of America are roamed by those I call street pirates, more commonly described as car jackers. Women I talk to drive on or near 'E' for fear of being attacked while pumping gas. This unsafe situation birthed my Borrow A Brother volunteer safety escorts, specifically in response to street piracy as part of advocacy and security advice.

Just like European pirates of old and African ones now off the coast of Somalia, streets of America are roamed by those I call street pirates, more commonly described as car jackers. Women I talk to drive on or near 'E' for fear of being attacked while pumping gas. This unsafe situation birthed my Borrow A Brother volunteer safety escorts, specifically in response to street piracy as part of advocacy and security advice. Some modern merchant vessels on the high seas have armed security standing anti piracy watch, ready to defend them. Others try to fend off pirates in speed boats with high pressure water hoses. Many are unarmed and gamble sailing through high risk areas, not unlike most drivers in cities targeted by street pirates. This is why I urge folks partnering up when going to gas stations, and generally, for strength in numbers at a time when carjackers and other assailants target the unwary. Some observers tell me it's a shame that I stand watch while female friends get gas as a highly recommended safety response at unsecured locations. I answer after we make things safer then we will be accompanying female friends out of courtesy and companionship. Carjacking is street piracy by another name and requires pairing up and looking out for each other as an organized response to organized criminals driving around like it's the high seas. #CapBlackSafetyCreator #securityadvisor
