Before you disrespect some of us old guys, you might want to do a background check. We still know how to do what we use to do.

It is a bad mistake to underestimate an old warrior. Old warriors may have more wrinkles, a few injuries, and may not be as agile and flexible as we use to be, but that in no way means that we have forgotten our training or our skills. In fact, our skills have become much more dangerous than they were when we were younger and impulsive.

We are more experienced now and understand more of the complexities of, not only martial arts, but of the world as a whole. We have more patience with obnoxious guys, as we understand from personal experience exactly how much physical damage our skills can do, and we take physical confrontations seriously.

Old warriors also understand the hassles that will come from a physical confrontation in today's politically correct world where there is damn little justice left. Our so-called justice system has become nothing more than a game that the police, DA's and lawyers play with each other, while everyday citizens pay the price. We aren't interesting in being involved with such idiocy unless we are absolutely forced to act.

That said, when forced, old warriors will take action. Where young guys will act tough, trade punches, and run their mouths, old warriors will simply injure you. We have already had all the injures, pain, and surgeries that we care to have. We are not going to exchange punches and risk getting hurt; so when forced, we will end the confrontation devastatingly fast and without question.

An old warrior has nothing to prove, as he has proven himself many times over the years. He will not fight unless he is absolutely forced to by the situation. But when that times comes, he will rain hell down on the simple-minded thug or predator that mistook him for one of the sheep. Warrior up!
