GUARDIAN SELF DEFENSE

I do not love the bright sword for its sharpness, nor the arrow for its swiftness, nor the warrior for his glory. I love only that which they defend. (J.R.R.Tolkien, The Two Towers)

Imagine that you are walking home late one dark and humid summer evening. It has been a tiring day and you are eager to get inside, close the door and go to bed. As you wander along, thinking only about reaching your house you hear rapid footsteps behind you. A quick glance over your shoulder reveals a man approaching. He is moving quickly towards you. There's no one else in sight - no one on the street except you and the stranger. The house suddenly seems a long way away. In less than an instant, he grabs your hair from behind and pulls you towards him. Without hesitation you shout, take hold of his hand, grab and squeeze his groin and turn around to face him - he is now bending over in pain holding your hand to relieve the pressure of your grip - you, without pause, take advantage of his posture and kick him on the knee of the leg supporting his weight - he goes down to the ground providing you with a split second to run away. This illustrates the true nature of self-defense and is at the very heart of self-defense training. (used with the permission of the author: Anthony R. DiFilippo)

The above illustrates how, in today's world, we are all susceptible to unwarranted acts of violence from the criminal elements of our society (thieves, drug dealers, kidnappers, rapists) and other mentally unstable individuals. These unwarranted acts of violence can happen anytime and any place. How would you react?
