"American Trombo": Hobo self defense art?

[Toby Christensen]

I spoke to some people who live under a bridge in Brisbane and are constantly in and out of gaol for brawling, public disturbance and violating the Summary Offences Act.

They spoke of being able to defend themselves and I know for a fact that prisoners in gaols use shivs and other weapons because I have seen them at Boggo Road Museum.

That being said, the people who roamed the 1920's highways were tough. That can never be in dispute.

Thank you for your input. What do you know about the subject of "Youth in Asia" as I heard some peole say you were a prime candidate for it? I did not know you were interested in young people overseas.
