WHAT YOU SAY

[This page is closed to new input. --Ed.]

AC Dropout,

Jackie Chan in "Who Am I", hmmm not sure about that one. maybe he had a safety wire on him in case he fell off the building. But how does that make his martial arts fake? I'm not convinced anyone needs wire-work to make themselves fly back when hit.
"Once Upon A Time in China", again the wires here were used in safety as he is not dragged up by the wires.
Don't forget YOU were the one who first mentioned Seigal & Snipes!
All these "fake" scenarios you speak of comes down to two words, "movie-making" and "entertainment".
btw did you get into the olympic circuit purely by video games playing?

SPRNZ,

I merely asked you whether you was able to properly develope powerful kicks unlike van Damm. Its like weight-lifting, those who can press say 150+kgs mightn't necessarily have punching power.

Kalami,

You mentioned Junior Seau, do you know who's Jone Lomu? he plays(ed) for the New Zealand All Blacks rugby team (he's a living legend). Just thought Seau vs Lomu 1-on-1 in a rugby-football confrontation (similar to the American Gladiators days, with no martial arts involved). Who would come out winner?

Thanks guys,

Run away. Yes that's what I always wanna do.
SOG, you wanna cut their balls off. Good. I had kick their balls. One day, you might become Guardian Angel, SOG. Defend a girl against a rapist.

Thanks to you too AC Dropout. That's true. If I met any guys over power me, I would been raped. I hate to wearing high heel. I'm kinda tomboy looks.

My comments about JKD are that its a good martial art. There is no such thing as a Martial art that sucks or anything. I Just prefere the Self Liberation.

"VF better than TK. What you nuts. 3 buttons compare to 4 buttons. nuf said. Where the TKD guy in VF. All they have is that bald alcoholic. But I do like it cause they have my off shot Pray Mantis school in there."

I was just referring to the graphics. VF has better graphics than TK. The number of buttons doesn't mean a thing. SF has six buttons. Does that make it better? On TK, I actually like all the non-martial arts fighters, like True Ogre and Kuma. People rarely use those, so they don't know what to expect. Regular Ogre is good too. His kicks are awesome. What style is that? As far as the martial arts fighters go, I like Bruce (Muay Thai) and Brian Fury (street fighting, I suppose).

Is Soul Calibur 2 out yet? That one is going to be good. I heard it is powered by GCN.

To AC Dropout:
Your tactic worked BUT it was unwise. My father used to tell me " fight with ice not fire" in english translation. In other words ignore them at first; stalk/hunt them later and than isolate and neutralize the target [this was taught to me as a paratrooper ie. basically wait and ambush. However, in your circumstance you probably reacted to the "scenario" and utilized the methods most "hardwired" in you.
In my opinion it wasn't stupid just unwise ie. police, possible 3or4 on 1 situation. Your course of action was swift and immediate ...ie. "shock" and leave.
Finally, I disagree that you "created" another skinhead Aryan nation idiot.
My perception is, in the future racist scum will think twice before attacking or insulting an Asian to their face. You fight fire with fire.

AC dropout:

It is interesting to see you beat the crap out of the 16 yr guy. I am glad you won but another part of me feels it was premature. He didnt do anything to deserve a violent physical assult. I would be mad as hell too. Perhaps asked him to step outside. He didnt attack you or plan to attack you.

Another thing is you were alone, I usually dont mind someone messing with me if i am by myself. Because i can take a beating and not mind too much. Things change if i have to defend someone else. my point is there was not a legitimate point in beating him down. If you challanged him and he accepted that would be totally different.

Glad you realized it was a mistake. Also you should take into consideration the legal conseqences of your action. Is it worth it to go to jail 3 yrs for beating up trash???
