True Self-Defense Leaves Nothing Out
We live in a time and society where things seem to be getting more and more dangerous. If you are not constantly aware of what is happening in your state or country, you may find yourself between a rock and a hard place. It seems that criminals are having a free-for-all, while men of honor have the deck stacked against them.
Criminals attack innocent citizens with little to no fear of law enforcement. Thugs loot and burn stores with little to no consequences, while the police are ordered to stand down by corrupt political hacks. And while these criminals and thugs seemingly have a free pass, you better watch your back because regular citizens like you and me are being arrested for the slightest infringes of the endless plethora of laws passed by our corrupt government.
This makes self-defense trickier than it has ever been before. Honorable warriors defending innocent citizens from robbery and assault, are being arrested while the criminals go free. People who have the courage to defend themselves or others against these thugs now have to also defend themselves against a corrupt and overbearing “justice” system.
You can no longer simply defend yourself from an attack and walk away free and clear. Now you have to be concerned with how you appear to the simple-minded “witnesses” or how you appear on some twit’s cell phone video. The truth has taken a back seat to empty appearances and a system which appears to favor criminals over regular citizens or the heroic actions of the few real men left in our society.
While you still have to show your fangs or defend yourself from time to time, you also have to make sure you do so in a way that leaves absolutely no question that you were in the right and did everything humanly possible avoid a violent confrontation or trouble. In addition, you must make sure that you do only what it takes to ensure your safety and not one thing more.
We live in a time where idiots apparently make up the majority in our society. Always remember that the so-called “witnesses” of the situation are most likely not going to be clear-thinking, intelligent people with any common sense whatsoever. They may have a personal agenda or be against you from the start because of your race, sex, political views, etc.
Never depend on some “witness” to be honest or to have your back. In addition, science is now proving that over 50% of what people claim to remember, actually never happened at all!
Trust no one! Self-defense in today’s society has taken on a whole new meaning. You not only have to defend yourself against an attacker or thug, but against cultural and political bias, false appearances, witnesses who have no clue about what really happened or even what they actually saw, bogus laws which tie your hands, and a justice system which is almost completely void of true justice.
Defending yourself in such a society is a tall order and requires much more than simply being proficient with your physical self-defense techniques. You have to be able to use your self-defense techniques, while considering all these other issues at the same time. That can be extremely tricky!
Remember, your attitude, how you act, what you say, and how you conduct yourself on video, and more, are all a part of self-defense in today’s society. If you lose your temper or your mental calmness, even if you are in the right, you could find yourself in legal trouble.
Be aware of the tone and volume of your voice. Watch every word that you say. Always conduct yourself in public as if you are on camera, because there is a very high probability that you will be. Absolutely refuse to let down your guard and become mentally impaired in public. If you have to speak to the police, say as little as possible and remember that your words will be used against you if at all possible, even if you are in the right. Use only the amount of force that you need to in order to save your life or the life of others.
When it comes right down to it, there is one phrase that is worth its weight in gold — TRUST NO ONE! Don’t trust that the witnesses will be honest or will even remember what truly happened. Don’t trust that the police are there to help you; remember, they don’t know you from anyone else. They are there to build a case, not to save your butt. Watch every single word that comes out of your mouth. And be extremely careful about how you conduct yourself in public.
The best self-defense technique is extreme politeness and good manners. Never use physical techniques unless you have no other choice, and even then, you must make it completely clear that you do not want to use them even then. Always be willing to walk away from a possible explosive situation if it is at all possible. And make sure that everyone else around you sees you trying to do so.
Remember, you not only need to have physical self-defense skills, but you also have to have the mental ability to keep your wits about you and posture yourself for the crowd and camera, while at the same time defending yourself.
Trust me, you don’t want to put your life in the hands of our so-called justice system or in the hands of a random jury selected from today’s population. All you have to do is consider how stupid and biased half of the people are, and then consider what might happen if those people were on your jury. That is just another form of Russian roulette in today’s society.
Sun Tzu, in The Art of War, teaches us to rely not on the likelihood of the enemy’s not coming, but on our own readiness to receive him; not on the chance of his not attacking, but rather on the fact that we have made our position unassailable.
Take everything into consideration and always make your position unassailable. Ensure that you are safe from all the possible dangers in today’s backward society — the criminals and thugs, idiots who may be present, false appearances, law-enforcement, and a bastardized justice system. Being a warrior in today’s society is much more complicated than ever before. You have to be more prepared today than ever before! Remember, self-defense leaves nothing out!
