Re: Why do Aikidoka say Aikido does not work?

Quote:
And how many aikidoka who don't "still suck" are really in any position to know if their aikido is any good for self-defense? Just how many so-called "self-defense" situations is the average not-sucky aikidoka encountering on a daily or even yearly basis?
Every Cop, Corrections Officer, Prison Guard, EMS, TRT/SRT/SRU team member, who takes thier training seriously...just a few, on a daily basis, for years and years.

Pick any high crime area, where serious martial artist of the Aikido nature live and work, and add them to the list....just a few, on a daily basis, for years and years.

....you do the F%^&*G math.
