Getting involved

A while ago I posted a link to an episode of Penn and Teller: Bullshit!. The episode was titled "Martial Arts is Bullshit". I highly recommend searching for this episode on youtube, the library, netflix, or where ever you can find it. It was funny, smart, and made me think a lot.

In that episode, it talked about the fact that we never see headlines in the paper that say:

MARTIAL ARTIST SAVES THE DAY!

or other such things.

Well, I'm going to change all that.

In class yesterday, we talked briefly about gun situations. What happens when a gun comes into play and what to do about it. Watch this video carefully and think about what you would do if you were the clerk, one of the fighters, or just some other passerby.

What would have to change in this story for you to get involved?

What would change for you to flee?

Hope you enjoy the video!
