The Combative Mindset and Self-Defense
The Combative Mindset and Self-Defense
There are literally thousands of websites, martial arts schools, and “self-defense” instructors, that preach the old axiom, “To survive violence, you must become violence.” They would have their students and admirers engage in conflict with the mindset of hardened warriors, only to end up in jail, a hospital bed, or in the ground. Their advice appeals to the angry, the scared, and the overly imaginative, but not to reality.
