Don't be afraid to be rude. Pretend that you're deaf. Don't be afraid to cross the street. If they come after you they are hunting you. Don't walk through a pack of them on the sidewalk. Do not let them approach you asking for the time, a cigarette, money, etc. do not turn your back on them. Do not let them flank you.
Good points.
