I have seen the "Survive the most critical 5 seconds of your life" package on 27 dvd's. Those were the most boring videos on self defense I have ever seen. The stuff they show you could have been cramped into 7 discs instead of 27. You see the instructors brag on forever and then the out of shape people partnering up and imitating the moves. Lots of filler. The sound is shitty as well. $600 for that?? Bullshido if you ask me!

I remember why I stopped posting in this forum. Well hannibal to each his on. I know it doesn't matter what TFT offered or any other system that offered another way to use the tool of violence because you can't see it elping you anywhere that youe years of training can't, and thats fine but as I said already not everyone hs the time to do that and to many people who choose not to make practicing violence a part of our daily routine I believe the course they offered was excellent. well those people be abl to sqaure of with you in the ring? probably not but I garentee you if anyone tries to bring violence to me I know that they'll be in for a long day and I aim to make it very violent, if me making it out of a life or death situation by taking someone's eye out of thier skull says I can't fight, then Hey I'll take that over being dead

You see this is what makes no sense at all - you are preaching it as a system for those that "do not have the time to practice violence daily" (translation "lazy") yet say "this system teaches you how to be "t3h d3adly" and maim your attacker in 300 exciting ways.
So what you are trying to sell is that this "martial arts lite" package is actually BETTER than years of training.
Crap.
You want to learn how to defend yourself against violence? Train. End of dicusssion.
There are no short cuts, no secrets, no mystery techniques that the military do not want you to know about ("which is why I am only selling it at this realy low price for 7 days ").

But what if they're trained as well? An guy from a style that is used to actually 'fighting' has practiced against resistant partners and has made his stuff work...I'd say that would give him an advantage. You can counter with the use of 'illegal' targets (eyes, groin, and throat, primarily), but guess what; the same targets are available to him.I garentee you if anyone tries to bring violence to me I know that they'll be in for a long day and I aim to make it very violent"Reason is a choice. Wishes and whims are not facts, nor are they a means to discovering them. Reason is our only way to grasping reality -- it's our basic tool of survival. We are free to evade the effort of thinking, to reject reason, but we are not free to avoid the penalty of the abyss we refuse to see."
