Cops say a would-be kidnapper chased a woman -- into a karate studio. That was a bad move.

karate is also about disabling knockout blows (as evidenced by machida’s knockout kick to the chin which was awesome btw)- not just lethal self defense moves- There are several karate mma dudes- liota machida for one- but He’s not a ‘grand master’ or whatever- just wondering why the masters aren’t in mma- if it is so devastating once you reach certain levels- they could clean up and be very rich-

A guy that used to work for me used to compete in Judo Tournaments, here and abroad.

He was out on a Date with his soon to be Wife and a guy started making trouble at the Bar / Restaurant they were in.

When he told the guy to chill out, the guy took a swing at him. Bad mistake.

Stupid is as stupid does.

Some people just don’t learn very quickly, do they?

Is the guy dead?

Were his genitals removed?

If not, then NOT a Darwin Award nominee.

Removal from the gene pool is the criterion for a Darwin Award.

They disarmed the mugger, beat the boogers out of him and then told him he could reclaim his gun and wallet at the local precinct.

YEARS ago, when the Internet first started up, I read a post that cracked me up - but I thought it was a bit too pat.

It seems some guy was held up, disarmed the crook and at gunpoint, made him take off his clothes and told him to start running. The he called the police and said there was a naked perv running around the neighborhood.

Oh I actually do. Thing is the hero didn’t remove the perp from the gene pool - the hero karate instructor showed restraint/discipline after taking the perp down. Therefor the original stupid fool can still breed and hence is not a candidate for a Darwin Award (requires stupidity resulting in death before breeding).

Obviously, I had not realized that. Thanks for the clarification -- it makes sense!
