Decimate:
To destroy or kill a large part of (a group).
To inflict great destruction or damage on.
To reduce markedly in amount.
To select by lot and kill one in every ten of.
Potential grammatical usage errors aside, this is a bold statement even by your high standards, Dan.
Can you please clarify?
Are you the one with the knife while decimating or are you the unarmed man? Do other weapons factor into your "decimation"?
When you say "modern martial arts", do you mean Georges St. Pierre, Brock Lesnar, Marc Denny, John Shaw, Gabe Suarez, or your average 45 year old aikidoist who spends 40 hours per week at his desk job?
What would account for this ability, as un-expert and far from unusual as it may be?
I really don't understand.
