wish i knew more grappling that is....the place i go to the BJJ instructor is in Brazil . I'll PM someone for help maybe

hmm wish i knew some of that =/ but i guess on controlling your opponent works better than luck =D

alright here's a scenario i came across this weekend, what would you do, if you CHOSE to interveen. (sp) I was at a haunted house saturday night with my girl friend and younger cousin. We were waiting at the end for my cousin to come out when these 2 guys started arguing with one of the employees about tickets i believe. It was starting to get rather intense and it was the 2 guys arguing with just one employee. They had him in a corner and i was sitting in a chair about 15 feet behind them. They had no idea i was there. As it got more intense i was asking myself what should i do if they attack him? I mean, they were pretty upset and i saw it getting worse. So if one of them had attcked them what could i have done? or should i have done anything? I wouldn't really considering a fist attack or anything, because they would have not done any harm to me, but i don't see 'breaking it up' working either. i saw a guy step inbetween 2 guys before. ended up worse than the actual people fighting did. and btw there was hardly anyone else around. If something had happened by the time people could fo gone for help they would had him for lunch. =D well dinner, since it was nighttime.

is it wrong or a bad idea to take techniques and mix them together tofit your own personal needs?? even if you change one or two things ?

thats exactly what i was sayin in my post!

first hit really is a big time decider. def. i got hit a couple years ago unexpectidily, it was actually the first time i had ever gotten hit. by the time i got up i got hit again = ( . by that time, i was too disoreitned to do anything. plus a few of his buddies came. . . but if i ever got hit again, i dont think first puch would stop me. maybe first punch followed by something else would. do what he said ^^^ take whatever they give u, and use it to the fullest !

first off, i appreciate everyone givcing feedback. you guys are alot of help =D. secondly, to whoever asked how to end a fight, if u read this...i have a good one...well its of my own preference....(only use if ur fighting to the death of course...) basically i know the Marine Corps ephasizes stomping. so has several of my Krav Maga instructors. aka get them on the ground, but with u still standing. and stomp something. stomp brainsout if u want death. but to my Q, anyone know any really good self defense books?? something good, that gives detail and no pansyness! thanks!

ahh i see is ee well thanks for all ur help. =D and im NOT A TERRORIST =D

or should i ask, can anyone help me here?

lets see here, one of my friends comrades was clearing out a building. he threw a grendade and they forced entry, a man came behind him and tried to stab him, the blade didn't make it thru his flack jacket, he truned around a snapped the man's neck instantly. he had 23 confirmed kills in Iraq and 3 with his bare hands. he is one of the youngest gunnery sergeants today simply because of his performance. any questions?

alright well i took my krav maga class...pretty darn good for level one...and i've been reading/studying that miltary combatives form...pretty good. lol btw to whoever said to save money to by more armor, lol sorry i didn't take your advice. im looking to go more into this stuff. anyone have any articles stuff about strangling someone or breaking their neck? i have to go to work soon, and i haven;t found much in the past 20 minutes..but not nessecarily ARTICLES, but more like methods or a site that explains how to. and i'd like to see more than 1 method. so can someone point me in the right direction? thanks

im a 2311. as of right now im reserves, just because if i can get accpeted into a college i can apply for PLC if i make the grades in college. (im pretty sure i'd have at least a 3.2) basically a 2311 is an ammo tech, im not sure EXACTLY what they do, but it has to do with recyling ammo/bombs etc making sure they are good to go, if nto dump em. but every Marine is a rifleman. im supose to go down and have a interview soon with one of the Co's Gunny's or someone at my reserve unit. so im sure i'll learn more about my MOS then..i wanted infantry, but there was none available at the time of enlistment.. (can u believe that?!) anyways, im taking krav maga and starting bjj in a few weeks. thanks for the info/avice. w00000t
