Swinging arms wildly doesn't make for long fist or clf... I would say most of what this guy did was LARPing. A few months in some kind of MA, maybe, but I wouldn't jump on kung fu just because of the arms. He did have a very snappy front kick, though that can be from anywhere.

nice... lets keep it real... if i was insane and this happened to me in japan and my spanish mom walked in she'd shoot the dude and sue the sensei. from american.. ? nevermind

no matter what the repercussions are this was terrible and everyone in the MA community should see it including instructors that like to use students as dummies to strike on and practice on even if comparatively gentle. kenpo hands teachers beating the crap out of kids and muy thai heads damaging teenager's shins badly are just some examples

nevermind all versions are full lol

I think we can be pretty sure that he did not have any grappling experience. He said that he had no master or that his master was jesus..
Bobby joe blythe said something about kung fu when they dragged the body outside..

the jesus guy did not jump up and down in a tae kwon do fashion when the fight started. which makes it unlikely that it was tae kwon do. However beginners in tae kwon do don't spare and therefor don't jump up and down. could it be that the jesus guy was physical fit individual that had some beginner training in tae kwon do? Perhaps
We know that there was 2 martial arts schools in the area at that time.
Blythe's karate school and a tae kwon do school.

If we want to Id the guy then I think our best lead would be checking hospitals, mental institutions and I think somebody had a private message exchange with somebody anonymous that trained at blythe's school at that time. This anonymous person could perhaps tell us more about the guy. Does anyone know how to access records from hospitals, mental institutions and police?

We have a date. 13 December 1984.

Last thought. Do anyone know what the other tae kwon do school was called? perhaps the guy that run that school knew something about this incident?

if you're interested in an honest opposing opinion well my friend the answer is yes, it does make many americans mentally deficient in a delusional kind of way... but that is only in the opinion of people like me with no faith in those things... others are entitled to their opinions, however, jesus, satan or the smurfs, this guy was definitely mentally impaired if he thought jesus taught him kung fu. we can debate religion, but i'm sure we all agree jesus didn't practice or teach martial arts... don't we?

by the way what's up with some people saying the victim was a crook or con man? even if he was did he deserve this ?

this is a shame in civil american society....
dont know if its the japanese stigma of supposed hardcore ass killing or the marine aspect or what... it doesnt matter.. the sensei is an asshole and the karateka is either midly retarted himself or just a future jail rape story his dam self

I am basing that on many years of clf, actually.
I still do not see the relevance of this.

It seems that would be an odd trail to try and follow if so.

You are not the first person to say clf.

Every little bit of info helps. If everyone said "TKD!" we could contact the other school in Dumfries and ask them if the remember him. I'm sure he would be hard to forget.
