Sounds good to me. The women already know what to do, kick that Arab in the groin, then kick him again on his way down to the floor! But you know, one main trouble would be getting to the perp in the narrow aisle. We might have to learn/practice climbing over seats/people to get to the perps!! We might not have time to wait for them to get near us. Any comments?!

I've been in enough fights on schoolbuses to know that the disadvantage of unarmed combat in close-quarters works both ways - if you can get within arm's reach of your opponent, he has very little room to evade your punches, kicks and grabs. He's soon cornered quickly. And you'd be surprised how fast a motivated person can hurdle several seats - forget using the aisle.

(That was my past - I've been walking the "peaceful path" - for now.)
