Re: More on Knives in Britain (Jye nigma) --__--__-- Message: 1 Date: Thu, 8 Jun 2006 20:38:35 -0700 (PDT) From: Jye nigma Subject: Re: [The_Dojang] More on Knives in Britain To: the_dojang@martialartsresource.net Reply-To: the_dojang@martialartsresource.net this same thing occurs in america in particular with the New York Bloods gang. An initiation into the gang is to use a box cutter to cut a random person. Jye Joseph Cheavens wrote: The video is indeed shocking and disgusting. The primary attacker veers off from his group and attacks the first victim with no warning (other than being a stranger veering off from a group and making a bee line for the victim). http://www.thesun.co.uk/article/0,,2-2006240558,00.html For the first victim, I think better situational awareness and Nike-Do would have been his best defense (that or a .45 to use once he saw the knife). For the second victim, it looks as if he didn't want to abandon his friend, so Nike-Do wasn't much of an option for him once his friend went down. Even if he was well trained in knife defense, which he obviously wasn't, taking on three armed attackers while unarmed would have been a very tough call and he still would have ended up getting cut up. A .45 would have served him better.
