The Message
One of the main reasons we Instructors come on this site, is to give our ideas and beliefs out to every one.
And of course, not all of us agree on all points.
I as a recent American Citizen, last April I became a Citizen, have a different back ground, and being now 76 YOA, different views, for instance, spending the war years (Second World War) just outside of Liverpool UK, I have a most decidedly better appreciation of your average Yank, than most foreigners!
Because without those thousands of young GI's who died in Europe, I would most likely not be sitting at this Lap Top.
Working as a Bouncer (Part time, 3 nights a week) in Liverpool Clubs, most of my history of violence, was from those years. Taking the fight or flight with fists/boots, and what was in your hand, into guns, was an easy transition.
And as others on this board have stated, 1 on 1, instruction, when you are new, might be the best $100.00 you ever spent.
