My 17 year old daughter and I have watched your movie Just Yell Fire. It is an excellent movie and is very powerful. My daughter was a Victim of sexual abuse at age 10. I think your movie may have prevented that from happening.
Thanks again for putting this movie out to our young woman.

While working out at the gym today, I saw your organization's segment on the Montel Williams show. On the TV next to the one showing your segment was a news report on Fox News showing an 18 year old girl that was just abducted from a Target in KS. My daughter was working out at the gym with me. I would like to request one of your DVD's for her. I want her to have the information that she needs to help her know what to do if she ever finds herself in that kind of situation.

What an amazing idea!! I heard about this on the Clark Howard Show and I am a survivor of rape and I want to use my experience to help and educate others. Thank you for doing this it means so much to me

I am a Sexual Assault Nurse Examiner (SANE) and have performed more rape exams than I care to remember. I live in North Carolina and education regarding rape and encouragement to report is not what it should be. I am sure that most females, both teenagers and adults, can tell you the signs and symptoms of a heart attack or what to do if there is a fire, but can't protect themselves or identify risk factors for assault. I am pleased to see a media form of information regarding sexual assault. Our society (especially young people) is very media driven, especially visually, and to see something is more credible that to be told something. I see victims who have been devastated and always "wish I had made a different decision" or "wish I knew what I could have done to stop this". I could bet many people know the Heimleich maneuver if someone is chocking and they surely know what kind of diet to prevent heart disease, but don't know what they can do to protect themselves in a mall parking lot or identify behavior that is suspicious or threatening. It is more believable that you could have a heart attack than it is that you could be sexually assaulted. I applaud your advocacy for safety and sexual assault.

I just had the pleasure of reading the article �Fighting Fire with Fire� by Dallas Jessup in the Current Health 2 � Sept. 2009 issue and watched the Just Yell Fire video on the website listed. What a tremendous video! I want to extend my sincere thanks to Dallas and everyone involved in making this video and to let you know I plan to include it in my Human Sexuality Course that I teach as part of my health curriculum. Thank you for helping all girls everywhere stay safe!

I work at a fortune 500 company and am trying to get the Just Yell Fire site information out to all the people in our company so that any of them with preteen or teen girls in their family can get a copy of this movie if they believe it�s appropriate. Living in the Miami/Fort Lauderdale area of Florida it is common to hear about an abduction and occasionally a girl lucky enough to get away. I used to take Judo as a kid and took a bit of Wing Chung Kung Fu. I had heard of Escrima, Jeet Kune Do, Tae Kwon Do, Kempo Karate, and Savate as a Bruce Lee movie fan but I never heard of Filipino street fighting which from this video appears to be the best self defense martial art out there. Congrats to Dallas, I am surprised that teens would do this and not some �Big Child Advocacy Group�. Thank God they did and are giving it to young girls so they can get away from any sicko out there.

Hi, I watched you guys on the Montel Williams show, and I thought this was the best thing anyone has ever done. Especially for females. Thank you so much.

I am a legal advocate and health educator for my community. I see violence and abuse on a daily basis. Part of my jobs allow me to educate and I look forward to using your video to educate people. Thank you for making the video and fighting the good fight.

My name is Jessy, I'm a mother of three, 13, 7, and 4 and I am so glad you made a movie that shows them just how to protect themselves when I can't. I have taken this DVD to the school board in my area and your video will now be a key to saving kids for the next at least four years in classrooms in the Dallas area. you have truly made a difference in the world!! Be proud! All of those who made this possible!

I think that you both are doing an amazing and inspiring job making this video. It could effect mostly teenage girls. It could save a tune of girls all around the world. I know a friend that was followed by an elderly man, so instead of fighting him or doing something she just ran! He could have followed her home and done pretty bad things to her. I am 12 years old almost 13 and I was almost kidnapped! After I saw the Montel show, I knew that I had to see your website and look at the video. It is truly inspiring!!! Around my area here in Toronto there are a lot of girls who were being kidnpped and they only yelled out help and they didn't do anything. I live in Toronto. Even the most smallest children are being kidnapped in my area! So, in my school they always say to be very careful and we always get newsletters saying if there is someone in the neighboor hood or if a man got released from jail. Our principal is very caring and has codes for when strangers come in. Code red means that there is a man inside the school. So, we get down and lock the doors and hide until it is safe. Code yellow is when someone is around the area. Code orange is when someone is in the school yard. I am a big fan and you are so brave!!! I wish I could be like you and be so brave!!!
