Re: "Aikido is for wusses": a response?

I'd like to clarify that I've never actually seen such an exchange happen in precisely those terms. Rather, I think it's more that BS.netters take issue with aikido people who talk about their art and training being "effective" without any repeatable evidence. On the other hand, the arts they consider legit have, in their view, proven their utility time and again.
Yes, I'd concur with this. I read your clarification after I posted my previous response. For some folks, video evidence is sufficient. For others, a broken joint or limb...sometimes both!
