It sounds to me like you are scared. I suggest you figure out what scares you and why and deal with it. Don’t just wallow in the feeling.
How do I delete this post/
I suggest you go to google video and search for it. I was looking for anti-single leg defense and there are tons of different takedown defenses posted. Chances are you’ll find what you need.
That’s bullshit. American military doesn’t fucking get to claim it went in to save Iraqis. They went in because they were ordered to by their corrupt, fucking higher-ups, who were looking for profit, popularity, power or all the aforementioned. Yeah, so they displaced a bloody dictator to cover the asses of their higher-ups (P. Bush and whoever else had a career staked on this), that doesn’t make them knights in shining armor. They are still a bunch of losers who like to shoot people. When there are genocide without a profit to be made on them, US isn’t in a hurry to stop them. Think Rwanda. Anyone who signs up to serve in the military of US, which has a history of invading other nations under the most bs pretexts, has to take responsibility for his actions. That’s what men do, they take responsibility for their decisions. Signing up for something blindly??? The military guys are either
- Care about money for college more than if they have to drop bombs on schools to get it
- Just don’t give a shit, which makes them irresponsible assholes
- Are completely brainless, patriotic rednecks
I hope those of you who are/were in the military heard me loud and clear.
“We went in on the intelligence that Saddam had WMD. As I said before, he acted like he had them, we know that he had them, and we know that he will use them.”
What do you think are the chances it wasn’t fabricated? Saddam repeatedly stated he didn’t have them, so don’t lie about him acting like he had them.
“Pre emptive strike.”
Sometimes I wonder if Americans would approve of someone preemptively dropping a bomb on their country. Oh wait. It was called 9/11, except it was planes and not bombs. Dude, I don’t think a country having nuclear weapons (US does) means you can go ahead and invade it.
“If Bush did nothing and something happened, then it would be “Damn Bush should have done something.””
Not from me or much of the rest of the sane fraction of humanity. You have to deal with negative press as a politician. Otherwise don’t go into office.
“You watch to much CNN.”
Where did you get that idea? I barely watch it at all.
“Yeah, because your beloved Hillary isnt looking for power and popularity is she?”
First you tell me I watch too much CNN, now I’m supposed be in love with Hillary. Dude, I think this is called a strawman fallacy.
So something good did come out of it
Yes, it did. That hardly makes the people involved clean.
“Ummm You do realise that Bush would have been ok career wise if he had lost the election right?”
The second one - yes. If he was kicked out of office before his term ended - no. If he was so unpopular he couldn’t implement any policy’s from his platform - which was rather vague, though - no.
“Even the one who go in during relief missions? You mean those people?”
The Nazis probably had those too. Yet somehow everyone speaks so negatively of the NAzis, I wonder why…
I see your point here. However, the people who serve dont get to decide where we go in and where we dont go in. The politicians we vote in get to decide.
You are getting things confused.
If you know you don’t get to decide - don’t freaking serve.
It also has a history of benevolent relief missions.
It also has a history of fighting corrupt dictators who invade helples neighbors.
Kill a person today, save a person tomorrow?
Ok then. Please give me your name and address so I can come and beat the holy shit out fo you.
Your decision to belittle the People who serve in our Armed Forces has lead to me taking great offense. I beat people senseless when I take offense.
Lol, then you’d have to get into a whole lot of fights, because currently, half the world hates America and its military. I’d imagine you’d end up the one who is beaten senseless, sooner or later. Well, you could try to beat the shit out of me, but I just don’t think that taking responsibility for my actions and giving away my address to some idiot over the Internet so he can try to beat me up are the same thing. You see, you aren’t some instrument of divine retribution, even if you view yourself as such. I don’t intend to let someone like you pass judgement on me.
They didnt sign up blindly. They signed up for something they believe in.
Stupidly believing in things should be a crime.
They did…and they want to know…Why are you still in America?
Thats a serious question.
Since you live in America, you pay taxes. Your taxes subsidize the slaughtering of inocent Iraqis. Your taxes pay for Bush to be able to fill his war coffers, so he can run helter skelter across the earth pillaging.
So again I ask…Why are you still here? Since your very existence in this country helps fund the people you are so against?
Answer the question.
I bet you wont.
As we can see, you are wrong again. I’m answering the question.
My taxes are extorted from me. If I don’t pay them, I’ll end up being fined large sums of money, which will go to fund the military, and I could end up in jail. I’d say you should blame the government and not the person from whom the money is being stolen. As for supporting US military by my very presence in this country… Dude, I didn’t want to come here. I used to really hate ths country. But you see, when parents decide to move, kids don’t get a say. I don’t plan to stay here forever either.
It’s ok, I’ll respond anyway. As anyone who has traveled a bit will tell you, moving from country to country is a very complicated business. If it were that easy and if I spoke French, chances are - yes, I probably would have moved. However, in reality it’s a lot more difficult, and there are some things, like family, currently keeping me in US. You probably don’t understand. How old are you?
For sure? This is the Internet, there is no certainty in these things. If he doesn’t wanna answer, that’s fine, but he could just say it straight.
This thread suits you dude, you should stay here for awhile.
Seconded.
So you are saying that if it wasnt fabricated then you are ok with the US decision to go in right?
See America went in with the blessings of the UN. They sought to enforce the sanctions imposed by a MAJORITY of the worlds Nations.
Other Countries were also part of the coalition. However, the US (thanks to capitalism and democracy, you know the things that you hate?) has the most resources to perform that particular task.
Therefore they are the leading country, both Militarily and financially. They are also the largest money contributor to the UN. Your contributions are based on you GNP.
No they wouldnt. Thats why we are in Afghanistan and Iraq.
Besides, we havent done anything to the terrorists, they have some kind of complex about us.
Of course knowing a country has the willingness to sell said weapons to people who have proved that they will walk on to a bus full of children and set off a bomb, isnt quite the same thing.
You have to deal with the things that your country of choice decides to do also. Otherwise dont live there.
Oh wait, you do.
Mommy take away your TV priviledges?
Saying that you can vote…who did you vote for in the last presidential election?
I didnt say it did, but what are they guilty of? Has anyone ever proven that the US deliberately lied to its people?
No.
So why did he win the re election bid? If he was so unpopular…
They probably had those…? See THATS a strawman argument. You have no basis in fact, you just “suppose” a fact into place. You cant debate that because it isnt possible.
The Nazis did not have humanitarian missions. They persecuted millions of people who they deemed “unfit”
Comparing the US to the Nazi regime is ridiculous and the fall back of liberal retards and teenagers.
So if nobody enlisted would that make you happy?
Then if we needed a Military what would we do? Count on you and your ilk?
LOL…not hardly.
Isnt that what the terrorists are doing? Killing those that disagree with them, to save their own souls?
So I take it by your answer that you arent a man then. You said that men were responsible for their actions…I asked you to stand behind yours and you did exactly like I knew you would…
You ran and hid.
Then you’d be in jail.
Taxes pay for much more than the US Military.
If you are a tax payer then you are employed, This means you can move out at anytime.
No…you are just another teenager who loves his shopping malls, ipod, and Fallout boy like all the rest. You just think it makes you cool to bash the US.
It only makes you look stupid.
What country are you planning to move to when your parents will let you? Please tell me that.
I would suggest he try living in Somalia. I’m sure that will be an eye-opening experience.
BWAHAHAHA! Travel is remarkably easy. Relocation might be a bit tougher, but apparently thousands of people do it every day. What’s more, the place they want to live is here.
So, you’re too lazy to leave a place you really don’t like and you’re not clever enough to pick up a nouvelle langue? Sucks for you.
Out of curiosity, why French? Of all the places in the world, would you really like to move to France? Obviously, you can get by pretty well in Canada speaking English, as so many members here can attest, so surely you’re not referring to a simple trip North. Some other country perhaps? We have members all over the world, maybe you can get some relocation assistance.
Again, not that tough. In fact, I keep my passport in my back pocket.
More importantly though, if this is really such a terrible place to live why wouldn’t you want to take your family away from it as well? I don’t think anyone was suggesting that you run off and leave your wife and kids to fend for themselves.
However, if the “family” you’re referring to are your Mom and Dad, and you’re living in their basement (because they’ve already turned your old room into a study in a vain attempt to get you out of the house), then I can see why you might have a hard time leaving.
If by relocation assistance, you’re referring to the features on his face,
The line will be awfully long for the privilege.
teh el macho
Question #1. who are you addressing this question to?
To people talking about double leg takedowns.
Question #2: how many different takedown defenses can be found on the internet and how do you know which are valid and which are shit?
I’ve found quite a few. You just gotta put some effort into searching. You test them out in class and see if they work, obviously. If they seem dangerous, you ask the partner to try it slow at first. That’s common sense, don’t you think?
First of all, I’d like to thank all of you for a good laugh. Some of the things you guys wrote are so moronic that they are funny. I mean that, honestly. When you started talking about who I am it was like an excerpt from some comedy. But I’ll address your points in order, if there is anything to be addressed.

Wow. Free speech. It’s a wonderful thing, isn’t it?
Are you yet another cretin who thinks only Americans have it or something? I’m not planning to thank anyone for it, it’s my born right to have it.
Patronise much?
You obviously need it.
Probably wouldn’t have… I get the feeling you just like to talk.
Well, sweetheart, I can’t argue with your feelings. You know they are very important to me. But no, I’m not just talk, so fuck off.
36/M/UK you gonna ask for a date there, skippy?
Only if you make yourself look nice and pretty for me, honey.
Yeah, the French thing was basically me calling you a pussy, 'cos, well, you sound like a pussy.
About the French, I still don’t get what that had to do with you calling me a pussy.

Isn’t this the guy who, on another thread, claimed to live in some war torn country that none of us had ever heard of where he daily engaged in hand to hand fights for his very life, except now he lives in America, where he wants to learn judo so he can hip throw all the guys that used to beat him up headfirst on concrete?
Tell me something, have you ever been in a real fight in your entire life? No, I’m not that guy. I was asked why I wanted to learn throws in a way that wouldn’t hurt my opponents, so I explained. It didn’t occur to me that you guys would find this far fetched, or that people would get scared and start freaking out, calling my neighberhood “dangerous”, my country “war thorn” (you shouldn’t have come to that conclusion based on the things I’d told you) and saying I’m a liar. Jesus, you are calling me a pussy, and all I had to do was tell you a little about the place where I grew up and you seem to be already wetting yourself. I should have reminded myself that I was talking mostly to Americans and Brits, who don’t know shit.
Also, about being from a country none of you ignoramuses have heard about… It is my experience that when i tell people where I’m from they go like “Where is that?”
You can only blame the sucky American education system for that, and the lack of geography classes in schools. Here is a video to illustrate my point. Make sure to watch to the end.

This is also the same guy who called Omega a Troll,
and accused him of giving bad advice.
Yes, do you have a problem with that? Omega is a troll who likes to annoy newcomers. When I asked how I should avoid head injury in striking his response was “blox your face”. He is also a sadistic asshole, who likes to prance around showing off his skills and telling “stories of his fighting prowess” on bullshido.net, where he also has a fan club of adoring little boys who want to grow up like him. He challenges people with less martial arts experience to fights and thinks that makes him tough. All of those are things which you’ll never catch me doing even when I’m much more well rounded and more experienced as a martial artist.
Ok, this bullshit will be continued, so don’t leave your screens…
I see some moderating bitch was in a hurry to not let me have my say. Probably felt threatened by it. What a pathetic display of weakness and desperation.
You guys are a bunch of pathetic pussies. You are all afraid of having a simple discussion over the Interned with just one guy. You have to shut him up somehow, namely by moving his posts to another section of your forum. Lol.
Nope, I told you what would happen from now on. You don’t read you don’t take the time to understand so here you stay.
First of all, I’d like to thank all of you for a good laugh. Some of the things you guys wrote are so moronic that they are funny. I mean that, honestly.

This is based on all of your time here and all of the n00b threads you have read? I have seen him give excellent advice, and I have also seen him at his sarcastic edge. Most people are able to seperate one from the other. I cant believe you are much over 30, or the world would have supplied you with thicker skin.
When I asked how I should avoid head injury in striking his response was “blox your face”.
In it’s purest form, this is the best advice available, and yet I would argue that 99.5% of all readers would have seen the sarcasm and the humor in it. How pathetic that you couldn’t discern any value at all.
He is also a sadistic asshole, who likes to prance around showing off his skills and telling “stories of his fighting prowess” on bullshido.net, where he also has a fan club of adoring little boys who want to grow up like him.
Please cite the specific thread you have read where he was being sadistic, and not screwing with a troll, or calling out someone who made an inflated and arrogant statement, like the second one beneath this…
He challenges people with less martial arts experience to fights and thinks that makes him tough.
No, I have seen him call out people who feel they are Gods gift to the martial arts, or the trolls who think they have a right to shit up this board while offering nothing to it. I think you would be hard pressed to find him purposely picking on a lesser MAist for his own amusement
All of those are things which you’ll never catch me doing even when I’m much more well rounded and more experienced as a martial artist.
Now That is an arrogant statement, but since you have opened that door, what is your fight record (pro/am)?
You seem to have formed a great many opinions in a very brief time here. Most of them are not supported by facts. You also seem to have a problem with others having an opinion, even if it is verifiable, that differs from your own.
I’m curious why you would bother joining a discussion board, when what you obviously want is a Blog for your treatise on life as you know it?
