That was a bad video. Next time I suggest you try something a bit more informational a little less scare tactic.
Boxing is a martial art in my opinion though it is less refined it is effective. However there aren't as many places to train in boxing and it is still kept in a mostly pure and simple fighting form no *******ization as it is in the Asian arts. Besides most Americans no nothing about real boxing and what they do is just plain bar fight brawling.
Shinning...
Blatant hentai? I like how they defy all physical laws. ^_^
There probably was a place called Atlantis at one point, and it could've been knocked into the ocean by an earthquake. Also, with the vastness of the universe there would be a low likelihood that we're really the only life forms, even if the aliens are merely bacteria. Yeah, there are some flaws here, maybe you ought to rethink this list here... You know, make it work time.
I was certainly exaggerating my point, and I do not mean to insult people who have come across the "good stuff". However, you remain in the stark minority. Also, I did take issue with your comment that people need to defend themselves and proceeded to list rape and other violent crimes, not because you are in any way incorrect so much as you are overlooking the mentality. People in America know that this kind of thing happens but often think "that kind of thing happens to others". So the situation may not be different but the mentality is. I agree with you for the most part and respect your opinions. I try not to talk out of my knowledge and don't know what other countries or some of the other parts of the U.S. happen to be like.
I'm sure some of you have seen this kind of scenario before. You're driving in a car or walking down a street and you pass by a big electrically lit sign advertising a karate studio with different kinds of after school tutoring, homework help and child daycare programs listed on the window. You may think to yourself what are these people doing? In this day and age it has become more and more useless to need combat skills to defend oneself. Crime is different and society is different. So what becomes of the arts that had been passed down to facilitate the defense of the weak or small against the large and possibly inebriated? They get watered down and sold. Yes, martial arts are a business, the majority of which are similar to the above described. They avoid violence and actually teaching fighting altogether and try to make a buck off of peoples ignorance and sheltered existences. There is a saying among instructors, I'm not sure if you've heard, it goes something like this, "A good student is one that pays." For many this is the truth, it can be seen all over the suburbs of eastern America, little children run about wearing black belts and young teenagers run about with an absurd sense of confidence that they know something that will protect them from harm. The phrase "I know karate" no longer has weight, you may as well be a regular middle class kid with no training at all. The military has embraced the useful and discarded the refuse, but the public seems contented to let their children take a class for what was once a fighting form as a form of aerobic exercise. Even more absurd examples include a school of so called Xtreme Martial Arts which is more similar to gymnastics than it is to karate and still claim that they are able to fight. This phenomenon is in my experience most observed in America, where there is no need to fight and the money flows freely. It seems like the times have called for a death to the warriors spirit and practical fighting in the public. What do you think? Is America killing the martial arts? Should they die?
Interesting. Don't really know what to say about it. Only thing is having only the last two pairs of lines rhyme when there is no such scheme above is a bit odd.
Keep going, it seems fairly interesting.
No one is equal, not really. Under the law theoretically we are, but outside that it's a free for all. It's like Ghetto said, some are smart some are dumb, some are lazy some are diligent, if that's equal then equal means something entirely different from what I knew. Anyways, people as a society can't be equal 'cause everyone's always trying to get one up on someone else. Well, not everyone but close enough to it. Either way, equality isn't the greatest thing ever, if everyone is dead they're all equal, actually even then they are remembered differently.
I mostly agree with your sentiments Ghetto. I mean people are very easy to influence at a young age and won't change once things become very ingrained. I think core beliefs are really subject to their owner though. I mean to say each person has their own personality, they may be able to change their beliefs when faced with some experience that seems to prove them wrong, others will in the face of seemingly irrefutable evidence stand firm in what they believe in. I myself think that you get your beliefs from your experiences but how you retain or interpret the information to make these beliefs is in part up to you, not consciously though.
She's not that creepy, but then again my opinion is somewhat tainted by some of my other decisions. Like fearing clowns, unevenness, dirt, bacteria, viruses, anything in an apocalyptic movie, zombies... You get it.
Ogure is an amazing artist. I always think it's good for laughs and awful physics.
Oh, I meant it was a tad bit crooked and the tip curves over too much to look cool.
Knights of Cyndonia the triplets at the end **** me over every time on hard.
I don't interact on an individual basis mostly. I make broad sweeping staments that often get me laughed at to the forum at large or just lurk like a good little obscure member. First person I remember having an extended conversation with was probably Xarenthe...something or other. Whatever, it's only KH-Vids why should you care?
He's not that old. He's still spry enough to sign a few papers and talk to other old men. Next, I nearly laughed at this. I usually get white people for Obama black people against him in my area, that is of the two percent that cares. However the part I nearly laughed at is my friends frequent comparisons of Obama not to mister King but to Adolf Hitler, another charismatic and charming individual who also happened to be legally elected.
Maybe. But it might be necessary in the future. I don't advocate the idea but it seems like humanity is always finding one way or another to **** itself over. This is just one of the ones we get to see unfold personally.
I chuckled out loud.
I'm almost positive that in Japan, they just have a different view on that culturally. Anyways, The thing isn't exactly a bad idea like you said it's logical but I think it should be done in baby steps, you know encourage not having a bunch of kids before saying that you'll force abortions like in China.
