Ozcar takes TKD, not Karate. But the truth is that even an experienced Martial Artist will have a tough time defending against a stabbing or edged weapon, bare-handed. (And that's putting it mildly).

However, it seems HoboPorn didn't read the part where I said that the guy tried to stab me on the face or the neck and I could defend myself. That's why I got the injury on the arm.

If I hadn't defend myself, I wouldn't be here right now.

This thread has attracted about a million spammers.
Were were you when it happened anyway?

You should always carry a revolver in Mexico.

Dude! Stop making me want to make parody topics...

Quite right!

But a lot of folks think that an experienced martial artist can easily disarm a knifer without taking ANY injury himself. Most of the time, you do the best you can. Just like in your case.

Happy you're still with us, Ozcar.

thats what you get for liviing in mexico! too many mexicans are theeves cause they cant stop fucking latino girls.

Yeah, it's really hard to put your arm infront of an icepick; you must have trained rigorously to learn how to do such a feat.

Become an hero

well, this topic got big here, and I figured my reply would be lost in the sea of spam that this was sure to generate, so I replied to the one in Latingrounds, but either way, at least you are safe, and an ipod is replaceable, unlike your life.

You should try to have a minor weapon with you, even a wooden stick or a bat, just in case man, seriously, I never leave home without a blunt (albeit legal or insconpicuous) object close by. My wallet has a chain attached to it just so I can wrap it around my knuckles if needed. you know, ANYTHING, so you are not bare-handed.

Eh, ohwell. Wonder if they wanted to kill you, or just go for a mesily iPod.

that fuckin sucks dude.

i've done that a few times in Chicago. drunk. i've also done it a few time in my area. semi-drunk. never been mugged.

Thats just dumb though. No matter how tough someone thinks they are, it's dumb to dick around in a city at midnight with valuable possessions with you if you don't have a weapon.

My city is one of the safest yet I still don't fuck around. I'm surrounded by illegal immigrants, meth heads, and Russians. They ones who live close to me know I have guns though so they don't fuck with me. But I still have to watch my girlfriend walk back from her car every night at 5 in the morning just in case.

It's just common sense to be prepared for when shit goes down.

Not to rub salt in your wounds but come on now, you have to have more sense than that.

it can happen anywhere. at anytime.

Thats my point, you have to be prepared for that shit. That dude could have killed Ozcar if he was determined to. Ozcar good have lost his life instead of just his ipod, and there wasn't anything Ozcar could really do to defend himself because he had no weapons.

The least he could do is do what I do and keep a canister of pepper spray and/or a ku baton on his key chain.

But at least now you can see the error of your ways and redeem yourself by converting to the dark side and get a Zune like myself:

you'll find any reason to post about your fucking Zune, won't you. seriously, you are the epitome of trendy.

Well I just thought I'd lighten the mood a little bit. But I don't understand how you think the Zune is trendy when there are 20 times as many ipods right now as Zunes and half of the reason people say they like the ipod more is because "everyone else has one".
