Personally, I would have to know more details. If you did so to protect others, yourself, or your country, that is good. However, we also have to look at the extent of damage done comparing it to the situation. I have to be truthful, but Martial Arts are dangerous things. People sometimes make fun of us or want to try us out at times. As far as Martial Arts is concerned, I feel it should be a very personal thing and something not shouted from the tree tops. That way you don't get the Old West reputation, if you know what I mean. Martial Arts are always a last resort. Martial means deadly, right? If you protected yourself for the right reasons, go back and train. The world needs protectors, for you never know when you may have to step up to the plate. Let's Roll! 9/11
