Personally, I think that purposefully attracting attention to yourself by looking like a target when you are really not is a bad idea. I know a lot of people who claim to be able to recognize a cop from a mile a way. They are able to pick up on the out of place body language. For instance, a white guy walking around 130th and Amsterdam at 1 AM who doesn't look like he is waiting to get mugged by every passerby is probably a cop.

I'll take not looking like an easy target when you really are over looking like an easy target when you are not any day of the week. I can't get hurt in the fight that doesn't happen.
