Here are my thots on this - I hope it helps.

I’m not a basher of any particular system just merely cant stand the arrogance of most people involved in them. All I was saying is that you misunderstand Wing Chun. I like Krav Maga...but that wasnt the issue. Actually, I like you...and you made some good points...I just dont agree with people who thing that one way is better than another. Your system works...fine...but my Wing Chun has bailed me out of situations that you wouldnt believe....My system is proven to...Ask Ip Mann and Brice Lee

@MrJoSWilson My vid tells what I think is easiest & quickest to learn while providing effective & lethal techniques to put down a threat. BTW krav has WC in it. Anyway Its my opinion & just like belly buttons, everybody has one.

Yes WC is proven but average person is not ip or bruce - the learning curve w/ krav & similar systems is minimal. Again its my opinion & I presented my case w/out resorting to swearing & ad hominem attacks. With that said I think this discussion is over.

If you knew anything about Wing Chun you wouldnt have made such an ignorant comment. I dont care if you invented fighting. Opinions are like assholes...everyone has one and most of the time they are full of shit. I can kick a board and call it Karate that dont make it so. Its not the martial art or the fighting system...its the martial artist or the fighter that makes the difference. Anyone who says different isnt qualified to teach.

[SafeArmsReview]

@MrJoSWilson So... if it takes the average person 2 years to become proficient in style vs a month which would you choose? Hmmm...

If all things are equal & that is the question, I personally would go for the shorter. This is NOT kicking boards but lethal techniques to disable a threat. If you choose the longer, thats your opinion.

Krav has been proved on the battlefield, in swat & in israeli military & spec ops - if you disagree fine but lets be civil & stop the immature name calling.

wing chun isnt flashy scissor kick style...in fact in real wing chun you never kick above the waist....in fact its a reality based and proven fighting method.....no offense man but you have no idea what its about. the TRUTH is there is no such thing as a superior martial art ir fighting system....only superior martial artists and fighters.

[SafeArmsReview]

@MrJoSWilson P.S. BTW I spent over 25+ years in various systems - tae kwon do, southern style kung fu, Seidler Self Defense used by the Marines, U.S. Army Ground Fighting, not to mention law enforcement baton, knife fighting & disarming techniques.

For those who want to study an 'art' = fine & no offense. However when one wants a recommendation on what is quick & easy to learn, effective & devastating, I say Krav or similar systems. Perhaps I should have made is more clear in the vid.

That personal experience solidified my belief in being armed as much as possible and it taught me that learning martial arts isn't going to save your life unless your attacker is unarmed and out of shape. Which is unlikely. Which is why it's so unbelievably idiotic to disarm law abiding citizens. If you have no choice, sure, go learn a practical martial art. But carrying a gun is your best bet.

"dude looks like a nerd...like a noob" lol. well i can definetly say i have NO pride in my self. pride is a sin.

@SafeArmsReview ....please see what i posted on your page. i do apologize for flying off the handle....its uncommon for me.

[SafeArmsReview]

@MrJoSWilson Unfortunately a lot of schools teach something different when it comes to their art. I spent 12 yrs overseas studying tae kwon do& its very different vs what is taught in the U.S. (which is sometimes lacking). I also learned military ground fighting, etc.

My point still stands - krav maga & similar systems are easier to learn than some full fledged martial arts. Yes if you master an art great, but w/ krav the learning curve is quicker, hence the recommendation. No offense.
