Magazine Anyone?

You're on a flight from Chicago to LA, and the airline's CEO decides she/he
wants your $0.05 (pre-Biden price) peanut snack you just paid $3,000 for. The
CEO grabs a cutting knife left in the kitchen (an old artifact from past days when 
airlines served meals and provided real service to costumers) and demands your
peanuts. Since you haven't eaten anything for a week because of all of the shortages
created by Biden and friends, you decide you are going to defend your rights. So
you take that cheap airline magazine, roll it up, and now you have one heck of a
self-defense weapon. So, you block the thrust of the CEO's knife and then snap 
that magazine into her/his nose. Then you eat your snack and get some other
passagers to help you stuff the CEO in the overhead luggage carrier. 

What is kobudo? Kobudo is a martial art that is more or less, an extension of karate (or vise versa) and trains martial artists (as well as members of the general public) how to use their professional, on the job tools for self-defense. Or use basically anything around you for self-defense. When such tools are acquired, they can be used for any self-defense technique taught in karate - block, strike, thrust, slap, snap, etc, etc. 

Over the past decades, I've taught hundreds of people karate, kobudo, jujutsu, self-defense and samurai arts and taught numerous self-defense clinics at a number of universities and colleges, professional groups, women's groups, couples, and church groups. With a little knowledge, a person can learn to defend themselves. And if they are not very strong, tools, used for weapons, can greatly improved their chances of survival.

So, next time you board a plane, look for anything around you that can be used as a tool of self-defense, or anything you are carrying in your wallet, purse, etc, and think how they can be used against CEO terrorists from America's banks, airlines, hospitals, etc. - you know, those scum who put more value in money than in human life. Now think, yep you have a magazine, maybe a book, a belt, pen, computer, cell phone, comb, seat belt used by the airline hostess(?) for demonstration, glasses, hot coffee (opps, forgot we were on a plane), coins, credit card, etc., etc. 

Wow, those car keys are sharp, and even make great Okinawa

Even a little rope, chain, belt, or shoe string can be used in self-defense.
