Could you fellas be a bit more specific, please? What IS the major
problem you see with the CC martial arts rules
as each of you see it?

Oh, by the by, I have a rant.

So all you guys got black belts, red sashes, golden gloves, or pretty
pink tu-tus. So the hell what?
"I know kung fu." So? The Cowboy's got a little bit of this'n'that, too.
But I've never been in a fight involving
more than 5 adult people, and none of those people wanted to see me dead.
This is not the case for most
Street sammies. Multiple opponents on his side and their side, some armed
and some not, some wanting to waste
him any way they can, some wanting to just to get out alive, and some too
damn scared to know what they want.
That's why it's called hand to hand COMBAT.

So when you guys post, please stick to discussions of what your own art
should be able to do
(e.g."Whadda ya mean Aikidos got no damn kip-up?) and what would be good
for the game,
and don't bore the Cowboy or anybody else with your "Best
Chop-Sockey"ribbons. If you haven't killed anybody
with your bare hands, your opinion is just an opinion.

<Cowboy pets the rant, which squeaks happily>
