Bad Ideas

I have been away for a while, because: reasons.

I am back and I brought:

Get this thread back on track. Mocking questionable TTP’s.

I honestly don’t know if this guy/training group is/are my heroes and this is all satire or if this is a glorious Dunning-Kruger demo.

Sula Do

First two vids were removed from the school play list, but the internet remembers, or is that elephants? Anyway…

Notes: Calling out the team name like the Wonder Twins? Sticking what would be the loud/bangy ends of guns next to each other’s ears? Center Axis Relock looking compressed shooting position? That goofy flop to your back CQB/knife/combatives shooting notion that crops up every 6 years or so? Fuck yes to all of it.

Notes: All of this is awesome. I especially like the front of shin holster. I have been looking for a carry method that has all the draw speed, access, and retention issues of ankle carry, but without any of the concealment. Also, the music…

Fun videos still on the channel:

Wilderness Adventure, bug spray, training ninja, ect. Also, sword work. Fuck yes.

Technique/training video
OK, I am starting to think this isn’t all satire. But, no way right?

Kickboxing classes. Oh yes please. This is totally a call out for any nak muy here. They have a graphic, so this is what it is supposed to look like
Title is Get Tough, and I have always wanted to. Also, cat paw.

Last, my favorite video. I need yoga pants and vibrims.

Robert A

Found these Gems the other day. Sorry if you have already seen them. The first is pure gold.

Robert you brought game with those videos mine pale by comparison. I think the people in my video muzzled themselves more than yours, I can’t be sure I lost count due to vision giving out as my vision was obstructed by the tears and my breathing became irregular due to laughter.

Hmm… Perhaps tactical blowgun would be the perfect compliment to my tactical crossbow/coiled rope setup.

I don’t see the problem. Thai Bo is a decent activity for elderly people to stay active and… Oh. OK, it’s not supposed to be Thai Bo. Too bad.

After watching these videos, I have come to the only logical conclusion that a man can in circumstances such as these…

I realize now that my entire tactical training life has been a sham. I have been perpetrating a fraud with my very exixtence.

And so I humbly, and with great humility, hang up my tactical crossbow and coiled rope.

I further reject the teachings of abject fools, such as my own Sensei, Erik Paulson.

I kneel at the feet of the one true Sensei / Shidoshi / Sifu of the warrior arts: Masturbate-Man (I hope I spelled that right.)

Idaho…wherever you are, I hope that you can humble yourself and see what a fool you have been…

Sento…you may want to get in on this as well…

I realize this sort of internet seppuku can be uncomfortable to watch for some folks…turn away if you must…but let my own folly be a warning to others at least!

Thank you, Robert. The scales have fallen from my eyes. I am deeply indebted to you.

Sulsa Do Corps, COME OUT!!!

Also, it is of great comfort to me to see that David Lee Roth has been able to maintain his athleticism…

I’ve never tried posting a video before, so we’ll see what happens:

Awesome. Karate Girl was kinda doin it for me for some reason.

BTW, just wanted to say I thought you made some good (if unwelcome) contributions over in the NYC Chokehold thread before you, understandably, lost your shit.

Thank you. That thread reminded me why I no longer go to that forum. I think I’ll just stay here from now on.

I looked special enough that I do wonder if it is marketed as “fun” more than “self defense”, but I fear it is the latter.

I think the shin holster screams back up weapon.

I have actually read and heard great things about that model blow gun, if it is the one I am thinking of. Like it can no bullshit kill squirrels and rabbits.

Nobody does sarcasm like you.

I don’t know if Sento will see this, but I would love to read his take on it. It looks like this guy is trying to do everything Sento trains in, but is doing it badly. Very badly.

After posting the vids I got very sad that Big Boss and humble don’t post here anymore, because I would love to read THOSE responses.

She looks like she would be kinda greasy and slippery. I mean that as a compliment.

WTF?

What thread? I brought that up in this one I think, but I didn’t know if it was talked about anywhere else. I heard/read that some of the EMT’s were suspended post incident, so I don’t know if there where shenanigans that weren’t on video, but I thought we all agreed that was damn near the nicest take down possible and they called for medical damn quick.

Was it in fear’s journal? I figure he might have a bit more inside info, but I wouldn’t want to put him on the spot talking/typing about it.

Oh,

Was it an LEO forum or someplace else on the net?

Between that and the “high impact” pellet guns no rodent would be safe. With all the produce that was harmed in the making of that video, you probably make a halfway decent varmint soup.

Shin holster is straight up badass. And it would make your Thai kicks devestating.

There is a whole thread over in PWI. Something of a shit show.

Shit, I don’t think I have ever posted there. My impression is that folks act very different there vs here.

In fact my non-combat forum posts are damn near restricted to popular entertainment.

I should look that up though. I feel like I must have missed something considering the talking heads are describing it as having none of the “ambiguity” of Fergusson.

Yeah, I rarely venture over there myself. Different culture than here for sure.

There was a fair bit of " POS cop ‘murders’ man for selling loosies" and such. Mapwhap pointed out a few facts (i.e. if you can say "I can’t breathe 11 times, you are in fact breathing) and was pretty much invited to go fuck himself by a few posters over there.

It was a good talk…

Edited

Thanks batman,

I just tracked the thread down. I sort of skimmed 'till I got to Aragorn, Brett, and mapwhap’s posts because I knew them from here.

That thread was all over the place. I think a lot of folks were looking at things with the idea of supporting an existing opinion or talking point instead of just letting facts be what they are.

I also think we could use a bit of discussion on blood “choke” vs adequate circulation and air choke vs adequate ventilation. I know the “can’t breath” thing has come up in several in custody deaths in the past.

Stay safe everyone.

Robert A
