Re: Suprisingly decent article on self defence

Wow. You're one of those sad critters that's one third informed, and two thirds defeatist.

By your reasoning, responsibly taught and meant-to-be-preventative self-defense methods are a total waste of time.

So how come they've saved so many lives? Mine included?

Also, anyone who knows that self-defense (both unarmed and armed) actually works, also knows that you can't just go on a 5-hour course and expect it to last the rest of your life. You keep at it.

Good self-defense courses (both unarmed and armed) deliberately focus on muscle memory; good self-defense instructors insist that you should come to class at least once a week *forever* (twice a week is better).

But the bottom line is, if everyone suddenly took on your mentality, the unnatural death-rate in just about every country would noticeably spike.
