What is your excuse? Are you scared your ego will get hurt when some kid smaller than you beats you up? You afraid to get hurt? These old men in pic related would be able to choke out this entire board of prime aged 20 year olds.. How embarrassing ! Seriously. What the fuck is your excuse?

I really got to get my ass back down to the school. Been training for 12 years but got extremely busy over the holidays and have only been able to make it down there once this entire month.

Hi Sup Forums
Sorry, but your empty "conceal carry" comments don't mean anything when you've been outed as pasty, small and weak 20 year olds. Just look at what happens when one of your own tries to troll Shias web cam youtube.com
This is where self defence would have come in. Shia is in your face shouting and harassing you. But instead, you let Shia walk all over your manhood as you cower away from him. This neo nazi punk exactly defines you and Sup Forums. So he IS YOU. And YOU need to get your ass in shape and train, pussy.
Most people train Gi and No Gi as they both compliment each other. However, even those who exclusively train in Gi would be able to use your own clothes as a Gi to throw you around. And one thing that doesn't require a Gi are chokes with the limbs. Which Jiu Jitsu guys specialize in. You are a moron.
Clark Gregg got his black belt in BJJ a few months back too.
Parents had me in Muai Thai Kickboxing for 9 years in grade school. Did some judo and jujitsu but couldnt get into all the sweaty grappling. Now I live alone and cant afford to go back. Maybe my old trainer would take me back for free if I did MMA for his gym now that Im old.
Gemma Atkinson does kickboxing. Think its just a part of her general fitness training regime though.

Don't need one.
No one is obligated to train in martial arts. If you really think so, get your orange president to make them federally funded.
You should have to pass a government test where you demonstrate you can kick and punch with a certain amount of force before you are allowed to own a gun. The kick can't be a round kick since that is the easiest kick to get power out of.
Makes sense right? Learn to defend yourself without a gun before you are allowed to have a gun.
Is Tang Soo Do a worthwhile discipline? It's the first form I've tried, and I'm curious about how it compares to others.
It will teach you how to kick well so yes.
I don't live in a developing country like the USA
You're better off doing BJJ, Judo, Kyokushin Karate or Western Boxing.
This school has pedophile symbols. Better take it to Sup Forums ASAP.

He got what he deserved his poor hole truly died that day
Nothing you can do against 20 assailants, no matter your training.
Reminder that boxing is much more useful in a real fight.
what if i can box and a brown belt in BJJ at the same time? Fuck you faggot. I'll heem you in less than 20 seconds with a shinkick
I'm talking about a real fight against an untrained normie. Knowing how to punch will help you a lot more.

Why not choose pic related, a confirmed Sup Forumsack, to represent Sup Forums instead? Oh yes, that would conflict with your narrative.
I just want a black belt
What's the most impressive black belt
This is true. My mate's sister's boyfried is a boxing instructor and he laid out half a rugby team in a pub fight once.
BJJ is pretty unbeatable in a one-on-one (provding you can close that gap), but try choking someone out on the ground while two other guys are booting you in the head.
A mix of striking (boxing/muay thai) and grappling (greco-roman wrestling/jujitsu/judo) skills are optimal for self defence in a random streetfight. I hear Krav Maga is very practical as well but I can't confirm, having never seen it in action.
Taekwondo.
Not hugely useful against other trained martial artists but you'll be mega fit and able to do all kinds of awesome flying kicks

If you knock someone out with a tornado kick people will think you're an actual ninja.
I know the writer for Black Dahlia had a go at professional boxing, hence the boxing scenes in the movie.
As to your original post:

Fucking what?
Obviously you wouldn't punch the shooter in case of a theatre shooting. You punch your way through the panicking crowd and out of the theatre.

Contrary to popular belief, the best self defense there ever is or was is always vigilance.
learn to assess threats before it could happen, and believe it or not it all starts with eye contact, not a stare down, mind you, but that split second eye contact.
The point is you let people know that you 'know' that you are aware of them, this reduces their willingness to 'jump' you, not only this but you should and always try to avoid fights, but you do not deny them, you do not tell yourself that 'I'm never gonna be in a real life and death scenario anyway', you should never live in denial, no matter where you live, it doesnt matter that youre living in a first world country, shit will always try to make things happen.
Heres a basic rundown how to survive
1. is always Vigilance, assess them before it happens, and always do your best to try and avoid fights, steer confrontations from fist fights, apologize if you must, a slightly scratched ego is better than getting stabbed.
2. learn Boxing, I dont give a shit what people say around here, but Boxing IS the best striking art there is for a normie, enrolling in almost any boxing class will give you balance and coordination which is very important more so than power when it comes to life and death
Note; I said 'normie', there are alot of more complicated striking arts which are arguably better than boxing in most cases, but to attain that level you must be a competing fighter, so for people with jobs and only have a few time per week to spare, boxing is actually your best bet, you benefit so much for so little time.
2.5 If its a boxing gym with only a couple of sparring PER MONTH, quit it ASAP, its a fucking boxercise gym, a good way to know if youre in the right place is if your place is having sparrings ATLEAST once or twice a week.
cont.
3. Ground work Bjj, Judo or wrestling, this will almost 80% of the time allow you to come on top in a street fight (aspalt and all) but is very situational compared to striking, you use this when you want to skip all the bullshit and just end the fight as quickly as possible, BUT you do not use this when your aggressor is with a group, you dont want to get your head kicked in.
Note; You do not prefer one over the other, train them together.
4. EDCs, knives, whistles, tasers, sprays, the works. Almost any knife with at maximum 4 inch of blade length can be passed off as a 'tool', if you ever decide to bring an EDC, YOU MUST ALWAYS bring it with you, it doesnt matter where, you must have it at all times, its always better to have it and not need it than to need it and not have it.
Also, it doesnt mean that you carry a knife that you must personally SEEK confrontations, just go fuck yourself
>BUT WHAT ABOUT /fit/? CAN I INTIMIDATE PEOPLE WITH MY MUSCLES?
As Mike Tyson once said "weights have as much resemblance to punching power as a cheesecake"
For the reason for this, you have to go deep on why being buffed doesnt necessarily scare people
the main reason for this would be; Ego. especially for criminals or people with ill intent, they are not scared of your muscles, they see it as a challenge, and will make them want to confront you as a group instead, having a big physique intimidates them but doesnt trigger a flight response, but rather the opposite, these people will want to see you fall, they want to humiliate you, especially when youre with your girl, they want to assert dominance.
dont get me wrong, being 6'6 has its perks, but people will bleed out the same when slashed in the thighs, people will fall the same when their knees are pushed in, or their throats smacked
5. maybe redundant with #1 but, NEVER LIVE IN DENIAL
I want to say that you should never get comfortable, ever, but that maybe pushing it, just get this, never live in denial
7. guts
When everything is all said and done, when you've trained enough, you've started to carry a knife, or have decided to finally be more aware, it still comes down to whether youre willing what to do what it takes to survive, and 'what it takes' doesnt always feel nice.
>Are you willing to use your skills to bring down your aggressor?
>Are you willing to use these skills to hit the throat, the knee, the shins, the eyes, the ears, the balls in order to put yourself in an advantage?
>Are you willing to put these skills aside and just apologize to avoid a physical confrontation?
>are you willing to get your ego a bit damaged?
>are you willing to use that knife when it comes to it and never pull it out until the body stops twitching?
>are you willing to take down your aggressor on an aspalt ground?
>are you willing to run for your life and leave a crime scene?
obviously this applies to the most extreme of cases but should be treated the same nonetheless
So true.
I work security. When I have to use my baton or anything else, the biggest thing holding me back is that I don't want to cause permanent damage and my biggest worry is not having a choice on the matter.
Sometimes it just takes a cold heart to get out of violence safely.
I don't disagree with you, but you could have gotten a workout in the time it took to write that up.

I admit striking is a bit more important, but still. I might have been killed had it not been for BJJ.

I have a similar story that doesn't end so well
>brothers friend is a 6'3 275lb gorilla in the military. He's 20 years old
>he's out with his friends one night when he sees a guy and his girl in a huge argument
>he was drunk, and like an idiot, went over there and told the other guy to fuck off
>the other guy got in his face and I believe laid his hands on him first
>my brothers friend punched him, knocked him out, the dude fell on the cement, hit his head and was in a coma for several months
>brothers friend got arrest and had to do a year in jail
That really screwed him over. He got kicked out of the army, and he will be stopped at the US/Canada border now for the rest of his life and most likely won't be allowed to enter US for a long time. He also has had a really hard time finding a job after that, with a criminal record and all. It's sad, because this guy was basically a family friend growing up, such a sweet kid and was always nice to me when I was younger.. and somewhere in his life he went down a bad path.
just fucking walk away
looking like a pussy is better than getting beat up, then arrested, then losing your job
if you have a knife, what are you gonna do? stab someone? got to prison for attempted murder? retards
Yeah, that'll work out just fine
I mean, if they jump me I couldn't possibly leave blood and hair and whatever all over the crime scene
Especially in my shitty nigger hood full off commieblocks with windows facing the square
The witnesses won't rat on me and then hunt me down for killing their family members at all
The funny thing is, if the Somalis attacked and killed me as a group, they'd all get 8 years or lower
But if I killed one or more of them when they attacked me, our insane SJW courts will give me 12 or indefinite years for my "hate crime"
I'm not even being Sup Forums, this is literally the truth here
Murderers and rapists get let off every single day here because they're poor misunderstood immigrants

A certain amount of alcohol can make someone harder to beat, as they don't register as much pain and are more likely to fight ruthless and dirty.
I used to hang out with a hard drinking, mean bunch of lads, and would get in serious and semi-serious fights almost every month. I'd win about 60% of the time, but it's very humiliating to be powerless against some guy who's sat on you, laughing. After a few years of this (and more than one facial scar), I started reading and watching instructional videos about jujitsu and judo. I'd run through the techniques in my head and practice the manoevers, although I didn't have anyone to train with.
After a few months of this I got into a light-hearted sparring/wrestling fight with a guy who claimed to have been trained as a sniper. He was half a foot taller than me and twice as strong, and pretty quickly got me on my back. I put him in a kimura armlock from the guard and he started screaming.
I've only lost a handful of fights since then, and they were either against highly trained martial artists or very strong, sober guys, while I was drunk and hadn't touched my kettlebell for a few months.
tl;dr: Even just a very basic knowledge of ground grappling will put you a mile ahead of someone that has zero groundwork. Boxing is very effective too, for fast and hard punching, moving around quickly and dodging/blocking punches.
Not always an option. I've had fights with guys I initially invited into my own home. I've had to stick up for drunk mates who were in a fight and wouldn't walk away. I wouldn't carry a knife (Britbong) but if someone is determined to hurt me or a mate, I can at least stand up to them with confidence.

It's unfortunate that he was drunk, the law is never going to be on your side with fighting. If he'd been sober then he might have established a clear case for self-defence, still left the guy in a coma and been alright.
