I (and any mugger) would just as soon put a bullet into your chest at 15 feet if you start yelling "Kia!" instead of letting you close enough to kick them. Don't get me wrong, I was actually a green belt in my own much younger days )Talking the late 70's here) and my own instructor told me the same thing. A man with a gun, in the real world, is going to win before you get close enough to use this stuff if you go looking to use it.<br/><br/>In the immortal words of Cmdr Richard Marcinko (US Navy, RET), "If you get into a knife fight, expect to get cut; it's unavoidable."<br/><br/>But then, this isn't the real world, it's a game and we now that in the game, things are often much more complicated. heheh<br/><br/>Blinkin
