Maybe self defense to you is a small combat situation but in reality things happen quick and in your face. Debating theory and style is not going to prove much here. I have seen my share so called martial artists get the crap beat out of them in a street fight. People who train in firearms are subject to this as well. Some people got it and some get lucky and some freeze up when the adrenaline hits.

This post is nothing more than opinion and assumption, all of it wrong.
It's a lot more wise to go with facts:
