Pet peeves

Re: Pet peeves

Being a so called expert in combat and martial arts my peeves center around this:

My biggest peeve is that The Gracies called their style of judo a "jujutsu" There is no such thing as sport jujutsu- thats what judo is.

My second second peeve runs along the same as I cant tolerate that people confuse fighting and training for the ring or sport with self defense or survival. There are no holds in survival, there is no ground fighting in survival- You need to assume that anyone you face is not alone or may have weapons- so Holds take too much time, there are no holds in jujutsu- survival is to cripple and kill another that wants to kill you or someone you care about - in a bar on the street on the battle field- you can get stomped on by many people, you can get chairs, glass bottles, rocks, tables thrwon at you, you can fall on broken glass, broken metal , broken weapons, therefore ground fighting has no place in real combat - groundfighting, holds, judo is a game for children or for sport. I hate like I was on another board and I talked of how only idoits go to the ground, on the battlefield people that went to the ground usually die. So I get this kid say, Well I been practicing Brazilian jujutsu for 7 weeks and I go to the groung all the time.........aaaaaaaaaaa hello0000000000000000 - !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Exactly. I tell my friends that train in BJJ that there is a reason they don't teach us ground fighting in the special forces. It will get you killed. Instead we were trained to unzip someones guts quietly and move along. Only holds taught were chokes.
