Green Dragon Society - BS?

**MattJ** · Posted On: 6/04/2005 8:13am

I saw this on FightingArts.com, and did a seach here on Bullshido, but didn't see anything come up.

Hooo.......this definitely reeks of Bullshido to me. Blood matches, secret training in caves, animal spirits, too deadly to compete, etc.

*retching*

Any Green Dragon folks here care to elaborate?

I like how on the front part of the introduction it says "Gung-Fu the art of killing and restraint."

Isn't that like an oxy moron or something?

Well, "Gung-Fu the art of killing and not-killing" sounded COMPLETELY dumb, so they made a compromise. :lol:

My old boss mentioned that some of these guys were pretty hardcore back on the '70s. I guess there was a school in Chicago that had to close down because someone from another school got killed in a challenge match. Some people went to jail.

I don't know how much truth there is to it. It could be completely false, but I trust the guy who said it.

In any case, if it even happened, that was back in the '70s. There are many martial arts that enjoyed great reputations in the '70s that aren't so great now.

I just dont understand, we are human why learn or try to fight like an animal? Learn to fight like a Human.
How often do you come across a leopard or tiger to fight them? hahaha
This is total BS, everyone knows now days that the animal systems as great they are to watch are not effective, they contain too many flaws, im sure that at some stage in history they were very effective, however the Human animal has evolved has developed Human movement (Biomechanics) systems that incorporate, undoubtly every striking movment the human body can do.

I'll leave it at that!

Zing -

I believe you are refering to the Black Dragon society, of Count Dante and Ashida Kim fame. These Green Dragon folk seem to be another whole level or two down the legitimacy ladder.

But now that I think about it, the idea of being an animal in someone's darkly lit cave might be just what I'm looking for.......

C'mon guys, who's with me?

Guys?

Anyone?

i can be wrong but i think i heard a rumour about these two
dragon societies fighting and one guy got killed.

apparently dantes school barged in with weapons and they fought and a guy died in
the fight .this could be an entierly different school on another place in the usa
i just remembered something i heard on a different board 3-4 years ago

is there any truth in this ?

Back in the 1970's this kind of thing happened. Dojo storming. Challenge death matches. Dragon societies. It's all real. Fucking ninja's every last one of them. Running around cutting people's heads off and everything. Flipping out for no reason and chop sake! Lop sao! Yup chagi! Sai to the eye!
