![]() I think this crap got a boost from that movie… um… with nick cage… with the … Con Air. As far as I’m concerned, if someone picks a fight or tries to mug a person and then ends up laying in a hospital bed because their victom knew how to take care of themselves, it serves them right!! One look at extreme fighting will show you that most people who are real dangerous there are usually the big younger super aggresive wrestling/grappling types who seemingly would have a police record a yard long not the 5’8 thin guy who heads down to the dojo twice a week. Ex-soldiers, pro-boxers, olympic wrestlers, body-guards and the likes could be just as nasty, but don’t require any special registration AFAIK. There are many people out there just as deadly or more so who have no structured training at all a lot of street fighters, self-defense/boxing flunk-outs, and of course the plain old over-aggresive drunken 6’4" hot-heads. The more traditional places teach it as more of an art and way of life then a way to win bar-fights anyway. ![]() Many people do martial arts not because they like or even enjoy kicking butt or fighting, rather as self-defense, physical training, the disciplin benefit (some schools are pretty close to military standards), a real hands-on physical hobby, or just because they like the lifestyle and history of what they do. It doesn’t even make sense to do so truth be told not all black belts are created equal meaning some are more “deadly” than others. ![]() I know many martial artists, but never heard a thing about such a rule. Uh huh - another NO! I’m in Canada (not the area you specified I know) and got my black belt in 95… and never even heard of such a thing until ConAir myself.
