Indian Beach, NC (OPENPRESS) December 31, 2008 -- WomenOnGuard.com donates pepper spray to a different cause around the country each month. The pepper spray donation was given to the Bradley-Angle House due to the sex offender Rickey Robins escaping from authorities.
Rickey Robbins fled his parole supervision and has not been found yet. Beware of this sex offender who is considered to be very dangerous. Robbins had served time back in 1983 for raping a woman in Oregon. He served time for that offense and was arrested again in 2007 when he fled from his parole supervision. During that time, he managed to break into two other women's homes in upstate New York. But his record did not stop there. Rickey Robbins served time again for those crimes and in 2008 he was apprehended when authorities found him viewing child pornography in a university library in New Orleans. Apparently he does not stay put in only one state, he has committed crimes in 3 different states. He is not only interested in women, but also in children.
Martha Z. Martinez of WomenOnGuard.com stated that, "It appears that there are hundreds of thousands of missing sex offenders in the U.S. and that all of these offenders should have received longer prison sentences. Scott Berkowitz, founder of RAINN (Rape, Abuse & Incest National Network), mentioned that rapists are usually repeat offenders and that they should be kept behind bars for a longer period of time". WomenOnGuard.com also wants to send out the message that rapists attack more during the holidays due to the fact that there are more intoxicated and less careful people walking around. This gives them the upper hand on raping women and men and they know it.
Donation recipient, Bradley-Angle House was founded in 1975, by women that had had enough violence for a lifetime and were ready to make a change. Named for Sharon Bradley and Pam Angle, who died from the violence of living on the streets in Portland, Oregon, Bradley-Angle House was the first domestic violence shelter on the West coast. Today it provides a continuum of supportive services for survivors of domestic violence and sexual assault and their children, serving individuals and families of all backgrounds, cultures, ages, and sexual orientations. The Bradley-Angle House has the dream to end sexual and domestic violence in all its forms.
WomenOnGuard.com was launched in October of 2006 by two determined women who set out to provide other women with the much needed tools to defend themselves against crime. Founders Susan Eaton and Martha Z. Martinez, want to let women and men know that they can carry a self defense product, no matter where they are. Whether a person is at work, on the streets, at home, in a park, in a taxi cab or in an elevator… they can defend themselves with a personal defense product. WomenOnGuard.com, carries many types of personal defense products and you can easily purchase Mace, pepper spray, stun guns, Taser products, personal alarms or any other items on their website. "Most women are unsure of where to purchase personal defense products", Susan mentioned, "Gun shops can be intimidating to some women." WomenOnGuard.com only sells non-lethal, self defense products. Susan states, "We don't carry guns or knives on our website. We realize that it is possible that if you are carrying a lethal weapon, it could be turned against you. In this case, it is better to be pepper sprayed or Tasered, than to be shot with a bullet from your own gun or stabbed with the knife you were carrying to protect yourself."
