most effective street fighting style?

[Tant01]

Its not my intention to get into confrontations

Its not my intention to grow old.

Its not my intention to get ill.

etc...

It is not my will and planning to do something though plans are foiled and re-arranged

So.... You INTEND to stay young? You INTEND to stay healthy? There are things that are beyond our control but we can still have the best INTENTIONS!


Definitions; Intent (criminal)
The test of intention
The policy issue for those who administer the criminal justice system is that, when planning their actions, people may be aware of many probable and possible consequences. Obviously, all of these consequences could be prevented through the simple expedient either of ceasing the given activity or of taking action rather than refraining from action. So the decision to continue with the current plan means that all the foreseen consequences are to some extent intentional, i.e. within and not against the scope of each person's intention. But, is the test of culpability based on purely a subjective measure of what is in a person's mind, or does a court measure the degree of fault by using objective tools?

It wasnt my intention to post in a troll-like manner.

But from your intention, you got my "attention"

Bravo on your post(s).

Very good. Move to the head of the class!

Tap tap..

Where I am from, you send such a message, they send you one back via a bullet

I've had a few bullets sent my way but none of them had my name on it.

Why do you think I'm pressing the weapon issue so often and so strongly? I've had friends that got caught in the wrong place at the wrong time and others that were hurt badly doing the right thing. I've been hurt a few times but managed to keep myself alive and still have all my good looks!

Knowing they will retaliate is valuable intel. even if it's based on reputation alone. That means you don't stick around for the fireworks unless you want the rush of potential death at supersonic velocity...

If you're prepared for that then break out the AK and go to it! Or call 911! What's your plan?

Break out the AK.....sounds like someone really mature.

Whats with all of these youth that have to relate to any firearm as the AK.....

I bet, as of this minute, without you looking on the web, that you dont even know what AK47 means.

Ive known this way before the almighty internet and the populaity of the AK.

You cant possibly go through the fear of a firearm ready to take out you or a loved one-could you?

That's funny! Can you even spell Kalashnikov? LOL.




You lose!



I'm a veteran of the "cold" war... I don't own one myself because I live in the People's Republik of Kalifornia but I know a few people that have more than one AK... I didn't think too much of saying "break out the AK" because I assumed since they are such a popular and common weapon that some folks might actually know what I was talking about... Good Job, you know what AK means

Veteran of the "cold war"?????

If you dont own one, why rally that others break out one?

Why not just say "break out a firearm" or sinply -gun.

Why reference sonething that you dont even own?

Or for that matter-any one particular type?

Guns fire bullets.

If you're prepared for that then break out a gun and go to it! Or call 911! What's your plan?

Comrade Mikhail and me

Give me a break.

You have no clue what "cold war" means and yet still have the nads to pick on my choice of words?

Time for a history lesson Jr.

***The Cold War was the geostrategic, economic and ideological struggle between the global superpowers the Soviet Union and the United States of America, supported by their respective and emerging alliance partners. It lasted over four decades, from circa 1947 (the post-World War II period) until the collapse of the Soviet Union in 1991.

The struggle was widely called the Cold War because it did not involve direct armed conflict between the contestants. The Cold War was waged by means of diplomatic maneuvering, economic pressure, selective aid, intimidation, propaganda, assassination, low-intensity military operations and full-scale proxy war from circa 1947 until the terminal decline of the Warsaw Pact in the late 1980s. The Cold War also simultaneously witnessed the largest arms race (both conventional and nuclear) in history, leading to widespread global fears of a potential nuclear war.***


If you have something worth a crap to add to the thread then by all means, post it... If all you can do is pick apart a figure of speech, I feel sorry for your silly ass.

Yes, I knew about the cold war.....it was odd that you were a "veteran" of it.

This would mean that I am younger than you?????

Figure of speech, I was using a interesting point when using the words "veteran of cold war"......seems odd of those that were in actual war-conflict

Get a grip wonder boy...
If I'm a wonder boy, that makes you the boy wonder?

Welcome to my ignore list...

[47MartialMan]

C'mon, it was mere rebutal and interested pun on how the term veteran of cold war was used.

Don't take it so personal

Also, everytime I speak to someone on the subject of weapons. i.e. firearms, they always want to make reference to the AK or Glock.....as if these are the only fine firearms out there. I get a little sarcastic when I see/hear others contuance of referencing.

Pardon my defensive posturing...

The Navy that I was in was very much a part of the cold war. It wouldn't be exactly accurate to say "Peace time veteran".

My intent with the AK refrence was to have MORE firepower than the situation requires. If they have glock I want MP-5. If they have AK's I want a chain fed machine... Maybe a mini?

Pardon my defensive posturing...

A.) The Navy that I was in was very much a part of the cold war. It wouldn't be exactly accurate to say "Peace time veteran".

B.) My intent with the AK refrence was to have MORE firepower than the situation requires. If they have glock I want MP-5. If they have AK's I want a chain fed machine... Maybe a mini?

A.) Ah..I now "see" the "veteran of the cold war".

Imagine my perspective when I had first read the phrase. However there will be those whom (other veterans) had actual combat or had got injured in a hard battle (i.e-Iraq/Vietnam, etc.) that would not think of such a person being a veteran of a "cold war" conflict.

But in my view-service is service. And I always commend anyone for being a part of it in war OR peace.


B.) I see. But the AR-15's and HK G36 are as much firepower as the AK. And yes, the MP-5 is nice. Although I prefer it in 10mm.

Good point being ahead or "better prepared" than the oppponent.

They bring a knife-one brings a handgun
They bering a hand gun-one brings a shotgun.
They bring a shotgun-pne bring a assualt rifle....
and so on.

However, the trouble is one will not always be the best-prepared" all of the time.

Best street art....

...not hanging out on the street, period.

Don't associate with people who lack self-control, are excessively controlling, ultraviolent or become loose cannons. Treat people well and do unto others.

Martial arts techniques work well against physical assaults.

Its not the techniques alone, its the ability to land it while sparring with different sized and experienced partners who are trying to pull the same on you. Sometimes, the sparring heats up and you drop your partner with a really quick shot and it works! You help your training partner back up and you show him where he made a mistake (or vice versa)

On top of that, you get used to seeing punches thrown, getting rushed or an attempt at bringing you to the ground and choking you out. Its nerve racking at first, but after doing it again and again, you can handle yourself.

People still assault others with fists, crude grappling, spitting, scratching or biting

In a pure physical empty-handed situation, these techniques work decently. From time to time, new students come in without experience, maybe alot of athleticism and quick tempers and get tossed and sub'd, but they come back with a little more respect and are ready to learn with the group.

I think alot of martial artists, like most human beings, try to avoid bad situations and bad people. That's probably what makes any MA street effective.
