Criminals Are Hunting You Before You Even Notice

About this video

Colion analyzes surveillance footage of an armed robbery in Philadelphia where three suspects circled the area for three hours before targeting victims. He argues that criminals are shifting from gang conflicts to robbing ordinary citizens in ‘safe’ neighborhoods, and teaches that situational awareness and recognizing predatory behavior patterns are more critical than the weapon itself. Colion emphasizes that most defensive situations are won or lost based on awareness minutes before contact, not during the confrontation.

Key takeaways

• Colion teaches that predatory criminals spend hours surveilling and selecting victims who appear unaware and vulnerable, hunting for targets who look like ‘food’
• According to Colion, compliance during a robbery buys hope, not safety—victims in the incident he discusses were robbed despite cooperating, with one still being pistol-whipped
• Colion stresses that situational awareness 15 minutes before contact matters more than any weapon—noticing surveillance, turning around periodically, avoiding phone distraction, and trusting your gut can deter predators before they commit
• Colion advises layered defense (pepper spray, knives, awareness) especially in gun-free zones like bars, and recommends operational security measures like removing visible valuables and never leading strangers to your home
