Good reason to lose faith in humanity.

Shooting a gun is easy. It's that whole hitting the target thing that's difficult.

That is one of the most intelligent things I have ever heard here.

I remember a particular instance where a bunch of guys were going to go on a shooting spree after playing violent video games or some such thing. They had automatic or semi-automatic "submachine guns." So they loaded their guns and started to do their thing except... no bullets came out. They were quite perplexed as to why their guns wouldn't fire and were subsequently caught since they couldn't defend themselves.

So why didn't the weapons fire? They never chambered a round.

Moral of the story: If you don't know what you are doing, even discharging the firearm can be a challenge.

Wise advice, chriscaffee. Next time I go on a Shadow-the-Hedgehog inspired psycopathic rampage, I want you to come with me.

OK, but I suppose the effort involved in learning how to use a gun properly (or at least decently) is far less than that of working your way up through a ridiculous system of coloured belts.

I got to a Blue just by knowing how to punch a guy real slow in the chest and making "haaagh" noises.

I think JuJitsu is the best martial art, not because of dangerousness (I'm sure they're all equally fatal); but because you are specificaly taught how to defeat other martial artists who use a different dicipline. You see, JuJitsu wants to take over the world. Then Karate will be JuJitsu's bitch.

Or you can just kick a guy in the balls and take his wallet. Whatever works, right?

In other words, "hit the sack".

A Krav-Maga master cannot be killed in a hand-by-hand combat. Believe it.

We aren't killing Krav-Mega masters, just Chavs.

Brazillian Cara · Post by **Brazillian Cara** » Tue May 03, 2005 12:21 pm

What I mean is that a Krav-Maga master would PWN mores Chavs than you can even dream.
PWN is the right word, is it?

-wyvern · Post by **-wyvern** » Tue May 03, 2005 12:25 pm

I don't dream of chavs, I nightmare of chavs. Incidentally, what is Krav-Maga?

A self-defense martial art that includes the explosion of timpanos (that thing inside your ears) and the seizure of arms. I need to find a link of that.

I did that once, but I didnÃ¢â‚¬â„¢t take the walletÃ¢â‚¬Â¦cause the guy was scary. And he was the one who wanted money, I just ran away...
