Martial arts question.

Karate and other forms of Martial arts are there to make you a well rounded, more conscious person, right?

So why does every Martial Arts student seem to think that their blackbelt gives them a right to pick a fight with everyone?

Also, why does everyone who took a "karate" class for 2 weeks think they're a martial artist?

Not all, just the few bad apples that decided to train in martial arts because bullies beat them up or daddy doesn't love them. Most typically don't do this.

Because they're faggots

I agree with OP. It seems everyone who even has a minimum of two classes under their belt thinks they're tough these days. And those who actually gain a blackbelt? Don't even get me started! I figured martial arts were supposed to make a person more confident, respectful of others. All the blackbelts I have met seem to think it gives them a licence to be an asshole to others, and to challenge anyone.

Blackbelts are totally meaningless. You can buy them from most 'dojos'.

The only black belt that actually matter is one from a reputable BJJ master, karate and all the others McDojos are just trying to make a buck.
I love people who pick fights with other people saying they'll kick their asses because they have a blackbelt because they usually end up getting fucked up badly.

It all comes down to general fitness and the ability to think on your feet. Karate is cool, but if you want to streetfight, bring a gun and/or a knife to cover your ass.

Even mixed martial arts champions have said that if you're in a situation where you have to fight against multiple people or a person with a weapon, best thing to do is run your ass off.

Truth. Macho will get you killed, a good long sprint will save your ass more than any martial arts. Plus it's good for your health, and one of the better defenses against zombies.

Here's a great example of that technique in action!

Seriously though, the only place it DOESN'T work is in a ring.
