Re: Offence

Being that you and your friend put yourselves in
the line of fire, it had to be expected on your part.
If you or he even tried to defend youselves you
would either be very broken physically or financially
after the courts got through with you.<br><br>Your MA
training contained a lesson on psychology and how to
assess your environment. Being that you did NOT respond,
you have succeeded in your training.<br><br>Sifu
