Rep Power: 15 | | next time I see one I'll explain it to him very gently lightning,
of course he might have trouble focusing with my knee on his neck.
Warriors-I think are people who fight for a cause they realize is greater, they are cold and calculating and understand what their life and the lives of others are worth compared to his/her goals, not a hero by a long shot.
Artists-Train in perfecting the art of combat until one day they have the skill to argue over ideas/opinions/events in an online forum

Rep Power: 13 | | | Warrior someone who fights for a greater cause than themselves, no matter what the cost, even thier own life.
Killers and Thieves are none of these

Rep Power: 10 | | | Thats an assumption witout any direct meaning my friend, if you read clearly you can see thats not what I meant. I was only saying that many people do not run away even when you confront them, if you have a background like me(when I was a kid I was promoting martial arts alot)they will come to you and say "Say...Are ya a black belt" then they get closer "You know kung fu does that mean your Kung Fool enough to take me" Then you find yourself in the midst of a fight and didn't even know who the hell the guy is...Are you telling me no one here has never been steped to by one of these idiots
(btw the lines I used was really said to me by a punk wile I was going to my car after a Xing yi session, people really like to go up to martial artists and its a fact.)
BTW these styles are out of date I do Jeet Kune Do and will pick up Haidong Gumdo soon

Rep Power: 6 | | | Yes I have had the same experience.
Your still alive, WOW !! You must have done a job on him..
You must have learned something that day.A good test of your courage,and you over came your fear thats good.A true test of a warriors metal.We have only to fear,but fear itself.
I bet bet you used some good tongue-fu that day..
And a few good "boots to the head " possibly

Rep Power: 15 | | | LOL, my cracks are aimless lightning, don't take them the wrong way.
On top of that I think we have all met a few idiots, I'm decently skilled in MA and have been at it for almost 9 years now (a little over half of my life).
I know I've run into a few immature/violent punks, even with my "decent" skills I've still got 3 blade scars.
Point being wether I survived, beat the hell out of them or laid there and died, I wasn't a warrior because I was fighting for myself, I wasn't an artist because all thoughts of peaceful resolution/ martial transcendency had left my mind.
Wars don't make warriors
Fighting doesn't make artists
