This article was in the Orlando Sentinel this morning. It talks about women taking a 2 day course for self defense that costs $250. The article claims that women learn to disarm an armed attacker in order to escape. The guy claims to be a ninjitsu expert.
When I read the article, it made me think that this guy must be a mall ninja, and I pointed out that a 120 pound unarmed woman versus a 180 pound armed man is going to have a bad day, especially if she thinks that she is going to learn to disarm him in a 2 day class.
I wonder why they never recommend a firearm and some training...
My girlfriend disagrees and thinks a woman can disarm a man with the right skills.
What say ye?
