goodbye, cruel world. i'm retiring from peace activism, but not from living my life and commercializing my businesses.

I studied military martial arts flavors from around the world, for over 40 years.

So, what do you think of the adaptability in freestyle with Krav Maga in comparison to Royce Gracie's more controlled Brazilian Ju-Jitsu?

Did somebody say freestyle?

Of course.

Which word of the term "hand to hand' (martial arts) combat eludes you?

What did Indiana shoot the guy with? Did he use his feet? No, he used his hand.

It's a movie. It's not real. And a gun is not 'hand to hand'. That you can't see this, says more about your ability to discern reality than it does about a movie.

 

[Picaro]

It's a movie.

It's not real.

Neither is wannabee Chuck N orrises babbling about 'martial arts' on the innernetz when their likeliest enemy encounters are old ladies in the buffet line fighting over the last slice of cheesecake.

You can't stay in the moment of reality.

It's a perfect social commentary on dumbass 'martial arts' fetishism at any time.

No it's not.

It's a personal comment using fantasy-based movies in a vain attempt to couch it in a comparative, as a fact that even the discussion of it, fetishizes such sports.

DO NOT TRY TO DISTORT THE TRUTH TO MY FACE.

It has been my experience that those who preface statements with "Trust Me" are seldom trustable.

sorry, as a guy who is a bit of an hawkish peace activist, i can not discuss such topics online (or in the real world for that matter).

only those who can keep secrets, will be safe.

 

[Ropey]

sorry

Apology accepted.

I wonder whether those fights are a common occurrence in your lands.

It probably is for those who hang out here, lol. Just a bit of fun; if you haven't seen it, the clip from that movie has a long hand to hand brawl leading up to the 'finale', but I didn't post the whole thing. Probably should have.

It was thing here in the U.S. for people running around claiming to be some sort of Bruce Lee or Stephen Seagal, or 'Special ops military n stuff in Nam' after a wave of martial arts movies came along, and lot of morons were running around claiming 'my hands are registered weapons' and other rubbish, which of course is hilarious bullshit, and guaranteed to get your ass stomped, sort of a red flag, in certain 'milieus', like jarhead bars, pool halls, dives, etc. I was a part time bouncer for a friend's restaurant and bar for a while. and these idiots were everywhere at the time, trying to bully and bluff people. I didn't have a lot of patience or time to screw around with the clowns, the place was too busy.

i take offense to that ego verbal diahrea, that word-salad, that you just "dared" to type in on a whim.
