Yeah, J you're right, this has come up in the past and it is a valid argument to a point. But, I have always contended that people should train much more often than they do. I also pointed out that you need to know what your skill level is and that should dictate your response. Also, I did say that if you haven't practiced the skill to at least a master class level you shouldn't try it. Isn't that fair enough?

And even that tweaker can get into your blind spot and throw a hard punch that puts you down. If he's intent on getting your valuables, he'll hit you several more times to disorient you while grabbing for your wallet.
