Self defence

As a citizen you are not allowed to defend your self.

The reason?

These people are scared of you,



They don't want to you to be armed because you may defend yourself against them. They will use these people,



to keep you unarmed and defenceless.

If you meet this man,


or this man,


or these people,



you may need one of these,



or these,



or even one of these,



but these people will not allow that,


Instead, you have to rely on one of these,



but you've more chance of finding these,



So you're in trouble.
The only way to defend yourself is if you are one of these,





These people,





cannot use these people,





to take away this,





The government have not disarmed criminals, they have disarmed you.

Absolutely correct, Mr Moose. My government will immediately redouble its efforts to formulate the appropriate legislation so that the law abiding people of this nation can again rest easy in their beds.

Thoughtful article Bucko. I have got two of those black thingies pictured at the bottom of your post, one for a nasty karate system and one for a hard aikido style (in fact they are so old they are starting to go white with much use which is sort of interesting, in a philosophical way).. the point is, having them is one thing, being prepared to use the skill that goes with them is quite another. I have seen black-belts hammered by orange belts in competition just because the latter were WILLING. There is nothing to beat hands-on experience (which is why I worked the nightclub doors for a number of years) to refine techniques, find out what will work and what won't, and develop the ability not to give a fuck. Now - here is the question - how many people do you know who have done that?

And there's the rub. TPTB know that the percentages are in their favour. It takes years of dedicated training to even approach some degree of skill to get you out of the shit. The numbers aren't favourable... unfortunately.

This is why people will choose the shortcuts, the easy way, and look for weapons; sidearms, illegal tasers, knives, mace spray or whatever in order to 'protect' themselves. In reality, of course, they are even more vulnerable because once they are disarmed they are all but defenceless and ... well.. fucked basically.

In the final analysis HMG are not worried about the criminlals because they are a known enemy of known strength. The (up until now) law abiding majority are huge in number and could - if they acted together - crush the supercilious bastards in a day. This is why we are kept unarmed in the face of criminal activity, both from law breakers and law makers.

Think I'd better shut up now! :)

Francis - I'll welcome the day.

Sarah - Thanks

Smoking - Easy there

Caratacus - Good points. I was working for some of those black things myself, but I realised that knowing 15 punches and 20 different kicks is not going to help me if I get set upon down the pub or in the street by a crazed nutter who doesn't give a shit.

I study self protection now, have done for years. It's a lot more than fighting techniques, it's avoidance, verbal dissuasion self awareness etc.

The techniques I do avidly practice are simple, uncomplecated. It's just about knocking your opponent out and buggering the hell off.

Bucko - Geoff Thompson.. you are in good hands. His thoughts on the nature of 'Fear' were something I shamelessly cribbed when I used to teach. A man who has trained repeatedly in a dozen or so reliable and tested techniques, and has managed to control his ego and his fear, is more to be worried about that any black belt in Origami or Ecky Thump :)

Bucko said...

Agreed.

OT - Bucko, where did the Jensen Interceptor go? I'm sure you used to have a piccy of one. I particularly liked it because I used to actually have one - a Series IIIJ.

Bucko said...

Anon - You're right I did have one, and I'm buggered if I know where it's gone.

I messed with the HTML a couple of weeks ago and lost half the blogroll. It might have gone then.

I'll correct it forthwith.

So. You had one did you? Lucky bastard. 6 litre?

Good quote, although they do plenty to induce me to hate them

Bucko - 7.2 litre v8. Put your foot down and watch the fuel gauge - see the petrol getting sucked out.

Rev counter goes up, fuel guage goes down.
I bet that shifted. Even Mustangs don't have that kind of muscle under the bonnet.
