I agree that black belt magazine was ridiculous and no, I did not subscribe, but I've read plenty of them.
I taught kempo, not TKD. It was a rewarding job that I held full time for 17 years before I moved on.
PS.com is your house. I offer no disrespect but I'm no bullshit artist.
My apologies for taking the thread off topic.
There's absolutely no need in my mind for you to apologize, and I don't feel that you have taken the thread off topic to any extent whatsoever, Sensei.

Bro, there are a few other innocents on this BB who went to Hope Mills to get beat up. :D

Go easy on yourself. :D

What is with that overhand grip? It drives me nuts!
Overhand grip? Gets back to my buy-more-Viagra comment.:p

So, 2 "operators" standing in the doorway preoccupied with handling a perp with weapons down/blocked while an unknown is roaming around inside is what technique? Direct-to-threat or points of domination? :D

I hate it when the person insulting me is making me laugh...

I got beat up by a harsh chick named Myong Mayes for years.

That was what was not worth while. :D

I don't disparage Tae Kwon Do. I just have a good nose for bullshit artists.
My son's current instructor trained with her. Lots of stories of men getting thrown around harshly. :munchin

Here that grip is not being used in the same way. Using your hand that way as a standoff/brace for a vertical barricade or window shooting position is one thing; doing it the way shown in the suspect videos is another. They may have got it from here, but I think they misinterpreted the purpose.

Kind of reminds me of this:

A lot of those "participants" looked like local LEOs to me. One guy had a shitload of USAF stripes... coulda been an E4, or something. :D

I think Gunter did that flick pro bono.
What a classic clip. Thank you.

I apologize for being rude, mean and unfunny, bro-you don't deserve a lack of respect.

jw74 08-21-2011 10:11
I appreciate it, but I don't think anyone can accuse you of being unfunny. :D

Here is another good one by these guys. I would hate to get caught in the door with one.
It's okay, they're American Jedis. Although, if my eyesight isn't failing, it looks like "POS" on the side of his head. :eek:

Regarding those silly videos, I was reading one of Paul Howe's articles on his website and the simplicity and clarity of his approach says it all.


" Remember, if you charge the person, their body may not be affected by your first few rounds, all the while you are moving directly to a muzzle."
( emphasis added )

I guess those ninja monkeys haven't figured that out yet. :munchin

It looks like they have misinterpreted things they have seen elsewhere. Also looks like they are ,unsuccessfully, trying to mix law enforcement and CQB. I read some of the comments on youtube and, the guys who made the video were defended as being instructors for ODAs. The person doing the defending said he didn't like the overhand grip but, some people love it.
