I’m a Dillman guy :<) ... and student of the late great Wally Jay. Now Leon Jay (his son) since Master W. Jay past away ... Small Circle plus Modern Arnis. As far as the points ... very easy to use even in real life ... practice practice practice. FYI vagus nerve is next to point “stomach 9” earth meridian ... very deadly Dim Mak point.

Plenty of people without martial arts training kill folks in fistfights.

I hit a man in the temple with a right hook in 1985 at aged 27 and it almost killed him...the blood loss from busting the temporal artery was severe...and went down like a sack of taters..he coulda died....and I ain't all that

Training gives one an edge but I have seen a good brawler with some sweep talents and a ground game beat snot out of a black belter kicker...and I mean quick

Which is likely why most of the MMA guys today mix it up so much.

Who knows what really happened here...my creed was always baring mitigating circumstance that if a guy went down then it was done

anyone..if you get on them and pound away or head kick or throat kick when down can be killed...that and choke outs

this notion though about deadly weapon is just Bruce Lee ate a half pound of hash style urban legend

I think you are the first, and may be the only, one to see the video. The attendant was chasing the purp; making the purp into a victim. Definitely a law suit coming on the attendant.

I promise you, if you google “sikh honour killing” or “sikh honor killing Britain” you will find a number of articles.

And if you google “Air India 182” or “babbar khalsa” you will also find a number of articles.

Your skepticism is understandable. But with so many search engines available, why not try one before expressing doubt? It’s a more certain way to learn something than waiting for a reply.

I agree. When you watch the video, it is obviously NOT self-defense. If I shot a man in those circumstances, I’d be lucky if manslaughter was all I was charged with. I suspect it would be at least 2nd degree murder...

This guy's a jem: kills a drunk for calling him a name.

Put his butt behind bars.

The Kenyan must go.

Obviously you either are or were proponent of George Dilliman’s karate training. I used to go to Dillman seminars up to the point where he got all “mystical”. The last straw for me when he tried to convince me you could do a “no touch” knock out by throwing or emitting “chi”. When he started selling that at seminars and I then watched his “school-of-martial-training-and-thought” devolve into a quasi-religion complete with adoring disciples and with him as the prophet. Needless to say I quit paying any attention. It’s sad for me because I really enjoyed his seminars and he did put on a road of completely redefining my understanding of my past training. I give him kudos for that. Now he sells “magic” and I am not buying! That National Geopgrahic special where he made a fool of himself where he said the “throwing of Chi” didn’t work because the “chi tosser” did have his big toe raised or his tongue placed at the roof of his mouth. I was simply appalled for Sensei Dillman. But he did it to himself!

With such an account, now it becomes a surprise why the clerk wasn’t later arrested when police saw the video, even if the clerk’s story seemed to make sense.

The paranormal is like that. It almost acts as though there was a wayward will behind it. Nobody can haul it into a lab and prove it, because its agent does not want it to be proven.

Anyhow, I would stick with the physical. Chi chops would be a bit much to try to depend upon.

That ain't a throwin' knife.

That be a kukhri (sp?) knife, the ones the Gurkhas use to mess people up with.

As in dismembered and decapitated, without throwing anything.

I had a handful of bar-fights when I was 18-20 (back when it was one-on-one and the loser bought) and I saw a lot more.

I stopped when I realized that a dope who never threw a punch could knock a guy down, that guy could hit his head on cement and die...it happens, especially when booze is in the mix...that makes the one-punch-wonder-dope a killer.

Take a look through youTube at pressure point knockout revival techniques. What a pressure point knockout does is either block, flood, or re-direct energy. In the case of a strike that stops the heart ... the energy which causes the heart to beat has been re-directed or blocked. The energy must be “reset” to flow in the proper manner. This is shown in several youtubes. DO NOT attempt this without LOTS and LOTS and LOTS of training. A well trained martial artist can revive USUALLY a person after single or double meridian strike. With a triple meridian strike the odds go to 50-50 ... a 4 meridian strike odds are very low of revival and iun the case of a 5 merdian strike ... call the coroner. All these strikes ... including the 5 meridian strike can be performed in less that a second (kyusho-jitsu) by a well trained martial artist ... and if done right ... even the video camera will not see what happened.

I am a Prof Dillman student but don’t do the “mystical” no touch knockouts. The raising of the heel (cat stance) and the rolling of the tongue does work. Have someone turn your head at the neck ... then roll your tongue and touch the roof of your mouth with the tip and have the person try to turn your head again. Feel the difference. I occasionally demo a “chi” stealing technique for friends. But it involves touch.

I will have to try that. I an skeptical but I will try it.
Anyway I do remember him saying you have to raise your big toe not the heel. Until given some evidence all I see “chi” being is good body posture and mechanics where you maximize mechanical advantage over your opponents. I came to this realization through several years of practicing Chen Tai Chi & Gao Bagua. In these “soft” martial arts the forms are training for learning to move with maximum mechanical efficiency so your throws and joint locks are as strong as your body will allow. (Not that I am claiming I ever became any sort of martial art “lethal weapon”. It takes a long time, a proper instruction and lots of "martial application" practice to do this properly.)

>> The use of martial arts may bring into question how much force was used on the drunk.

Never a question when enforcement opens fire on the annoyed pedestrian.
