Was reading something when the subject of tae kwon do with its high kicks came up. The quote was, "Lifting your leg like a dog at a hydrant was just begging to get beat. Begging to get tipped over and kicked into unconsciousness."
Now, this quote was in context with a confrontation on the street with two guys wearing soft shoes who planned on providing a beat down, as a lesson to leave the area, to a single person. All three were approximately the same size and weight, i.e. the lone person outweighed them by only five or ten pounds. The sole protagonist was 240, over six feet tall and was wearing solid boots.
You have to just get into thinking about such things when it comes to using your martial arts in the street, don't you think?
