How far was your buddy? 10 inches? Are you faster than a speeding bullet?
To this argument :
No I would certainly not believe Chuck Norris. Personally I would rather hand over my wallet.
Its slanted especially in America where there has been a tradition of over glorifying Oriental Martial Arts for the past 30-40 years.
Jujitsu is a martial arts based on holds and throws, taekwondo is closer to Karate. In fact the Japanese based Karate on Taekwondo from Korea.
I think the elderly would also make a very good target for violent crime.
I seem to be the only here that is using some facts.
You miss the point that its because cops have close contact with the assaliant, which is why they lose their weapon. If your a citizen and all you have to do is point and shoot, not a lot to worry about. At least the weapon can be tracked if its stolen, can't do that with an illegal sold weapon, which is surprisingly easy to get ahold of. Armed Citizen
There you go. A ton of news articles about armed citizens warding off crimnals. |
The bubble works out to about four feet.
To mug a person who knows martial arts you need two people. One points the gun from a safe distance or inside a car and the other clears the wallet. I've had cause to read a lot of police reports.
Oh, and I recalculate based upon just 1987 to 1991, and it still does not work out to the figures you quoted. I apologize for my error, but regardless by accident I analyzed a larger and more meaningful period of time anyway so my effort was not wasted.
You have a point about the elderly. You would also have a point about drunk college students, who featured prominently in the police reports I wound up reading. As I said in my previous post, pass out free tasers.
And when I said Jujitsu and taekwondo were similar, I was referring to how they clear weapons. Jujitsu is more about wrestling and some of it I have not seen before, but other things I am familiar with.
