Worthwhile to take those classes, and then go around mugging herbs.

Last line was the best:

“She said she wasn’t scared. She actually feels empowered by the whole thing.”

Being able to stand up to bullies is empowering. Not being a victim is empowering.

And for those of us (especially women) who will never achieve her level of training, the next best thing to ensure we don’t end up as victims is a gun.

Yes you can. Trying to rob a gun store would qualify as being more stupid than that.

The thief probably couldn’t read the business sign.

There was a guy who tried to carjack an MMA fighter. That didn’t end well for the carjacker!

"The idiot even KNEW she was a martial arts instructor. You cannot get any more stupid than that."

She, or someone should have called the cops while she had him there. There's always the possibility he could come back with a weapon. Thugs don't like to be disrespected or humiliated, especially by a woman. I hope she realizes that.

True. Hey....Did he ever get his bike back? Hope she dismantles it and saves out the crossbar to beat his ass with it when he comes back.

"They was my first thought, too."

The one thing I learned working in uniform in NY State's prison system for 25 years, is that street thugs hold grudges for many years. If they had a problem with someone on the street, and they run into that same person, or someone related to that person, they will seek revenge any way they can.

I liked Yar better than Troi or Crusher.

If he does come back with a weapon she could use the John Turturro technique on him (from The Big Lebowski):

"You flash your piece [at me], I'll take it away from you and stick it up your ass and pull the f*cking trigger 'til it goes *click*"
