Krav-Maga is a martial arts system developed for the Israeli Defence Force on the principle that they could quickly teach it to anybody. It’s not dedicated to pretty moves or karate flicks. It’s for ripping people in half if they try to hurt you.
Other than that, you’ll find that pretty much any useful defensive weapon is banned on campus. Your son or daughter will be expelled and prosecuted for posession of such, particularly if he/she uses the weapon in self defense. They can prosecute for unlawful weapons posession on campus, and they will. She’ll still get expelled if she gouges some rapist’s eye out, ruptures his testicles, and shatters one of his kneecaps.
They’re totally insane in that regard. They can’t prosecute for fighting back, and the threat of a lawsuit against the administration might even get them to shut up and refund the tuition.
Thanks, I checked krav-maga out and there’s a couple places near here so I’m leaning toward those classes. It’s maddening that colleges go to such extremes in NOT protecting our children. It’s no wonder there’s so many crimes on campus and mass shootings. It’s like apples in a barrel and the admin couldn’t care less.
