WHAT YOU SAY

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

AC Dropout:

I think you just reacted with your animal instincts through your martial arts training and maybe you should have said "what the hell do you mean by not holding a door for a chink? You Asshole"

Then it would either be a arguement between an idiot and you and would either mean the end result would be a fight anyway.
So while you may have reacted prematurely you ended the matter quickly.

What did you use to strike this whiteboy idiot? I like to know what you did to make him unconscious. Did you just strike anywhere or did you aim for a vital area? Not to be sadistic but this is what exactly happens in fight where you only have a second to defeat you opponent.

I personally think that it was one of those weird encounters which happened so absorb what you did about it and learn from it.

The girlfriend should of known better than to hang out with a jerk like him but like attracts like. You probably did her justice by beating the crap out of her b-friend. The shoving of her to her beaten b-friend was classic. Like in a movie.

Maybe next time those kids will learn some manners and that not all Asians especially Asian Men will just take racial crap from everyone. This is the twenty-first century and the days where our forefathers worked and slaved here to make and living and kowtowing to the whites are over. We are the new generation of Asians who aren't going to take crap from anyone.

I had to deal with this crap since I was born here in this wonderful country. In grade school ,I had a incident where one guy was trying to egg me on seeing if I knew martial arts and next thing you know I grabbed him by his tie (it was a damn parochial school)and I flipped him over my back and he landed on his head. He cried and said I'm going to tell but later he respected me and shook my hands because he was afraid to get beaten up by me. HeHehe

Anyway that is why I owe my life to the martial arts. It has given me the perfect outlet and avenue for my anger and hatred for the hypocrisy, bigots and injustices in this country. I do music and art and even these outlet do not give me the full satisfaction that the martial arts have given me.

Through martial arts training I have developed patience, sprituality, health, healing, tolerance, discipline, concentration and a method to defend and protect myself in a ever hostile environment.

"Okay fighting game trival. You remember a game called "Killer Instinct." It has a dinasaur in it, had a indian, and a ninja girl. That was six buttons and pretty graphics to boot."

Killer Instict was dope! It was one of the "Powered by Ultra 64 (N64)" games. Cruisin' USA was the other. If you want to go back even more, remember Pit Fighter?! What about Karate Champ and Kung Fu Master? Remember those snakes (or were they dragons) popping up from the ground?

How about Data East's SF imitation, Fighter's History? They actually got sued over that. I liked Capcom's DarkStalkers. Morrigan was soooo fine! Hey, and who can forget Mai Shiranui on SNK's King of the Fighters? Dead or Alive completely ripped her off. Some SF versions were crap, like EX2, their answer to TK. That was a complete joke.

latina loving korean hombre,

Yes it was pretty stupid move on my part. There were about 10 kid...3 girls, 7 boys. I usually spend about 1 second sizing up everybody before I do dumb stuff like that.

Actually one of the kids held the door for me. It was the badass in the group, that said don't hold a door for a chink.

Since I knew there was a skill difference when I start beating on the guy. I prolonged it to the point where he became unconscious. I was actually hoping his friends would try to help him. You know wound one, and hope another comes to help strategy. Only his girlfriend hung around. I guess his other friends didn't like his badass attitude either.

SOG,

If this happened in another place, like LA or Chicago, there is a good chance I just might let it go. But it was in my own backyard. In a neighborhood I use to run. The kid was just out of line.

The only thing I do really regret is that I let my past perception of myself, dictate my actions that day.

You don't go to jail for public disturbance in NYC. You get a slap on the wrist mostly.

TSJ,

Don't you be putting down SF. Those be fighting words. :) The AI is phat in SF.

I remember once I saw a vintage SF I machine. I was thinking of buying it. Then I played it. Boy that game suck back then.

TK I like the panda bear. He has a "fart" move that literally make the oppenent pass out. That's so funny.

JTUK,

In college I training with a Olympic Bronze Medalist and his student who was national champ. The Olympian was later invited to become the head coach of the US team. It was a sport I really really enjoyed. At first I was a scrub at the sport. But with good coaching and dedication I became better.

Wires are used to enhance the visual effects. In asia where martial arts is common place. You have to do something to make it look like the kung fu novels people read as a kid. To make it spectacular. In west martial arts is not that common place. So a simple flying kick will impress people here.

Video games, pool halls, and KTV joints were common past times in my youth. Every asian guy I know likes to do at least one of these things in the city.

I had always a twinges of conscience when I was training martial art and someone could see it. It's really something for insiders, like a private cult. After having lost so many harmless fisticuffs against mates at school I realized that showing off is something superficial but the temptation to become a sportive guy remains

Walking around with old-fashioned weapons (kris, balisong...) could also be somehow cool. But just to show that you take a walk to be alone and don't want any companion by your side.

If someone,equally whether a teenager or a superman, challenged me I would never get idea to show martial arts skills. That is the big trap for men since stone age. I think it would be the most intelligent to say that I'm not worth being a victim because I'm crippled, dull and celibate. Every aggressor who wasn't extremely sadistic would let me go in such a case.
