Joecooke007 Posted December 30, 2001 Posted December 30, 2001 This is very off topic and I'm sorry for that but I just heard from my mother that my greatgrandfather was a black belt in Judo and his store was getting robbed so he beat the crap out of the guy robbing him and the cops had to get him off of the robber.

Bon Posted December 31, 2001 Posted December 31, 2001 (edited) ::edit:: Edited September 29, 2002 by Bon It takes sacrifice to be the best.There are always two choices, two paths to take. One is easy. And its only reward is that it's easy.
Don Gwinn Posted July 4, 2002 Posted July 4, 2002 Good on your grandpa! Speaking as a man who only recently began studying MA and has little knowledge of unarmed combat beyond head butts and ground-and-pound, Bon, all I can say to your post is YEP! No, I would not shoot someone to save my property. But if they are willing to threaten my life in order to get my property, the situation has changed. I don't trust robbers no matter what they may promise in exchange for cooperation. ____________________________________* Ignorant Taekwondo beginner.http://www.thefiringline.com
Blade13 Posted July 4, 2002 Posted July 4, 2002 Don, Im sorry if it sounds like I'm mocking you, but I'm curious. Why wouldn't you shoot someone to save your property? Do you mean that you wouldnt shoot a mugger who tries to take your wallet? Or that you wouldnt shoot them even if they broke into your house and started taking things while they thought you were asleep?
Tigerspirit Posted June 14, 2003 Posted June 14, 2003 u must be very proud of him! i bet those robbers got a bit of a shook hey. Impossible is not a fact, It's an opinion!Shotokan-Nidan
