Airsoft Gun:Self Defense

I have studied a number of martial arts disciplines and am a handgun, airsoft gun and stun baton permit holder. I do not want to be misunderstood. Martial arts, gun clubs and self defense programs are great disciplines and wonderful sports. Most of these programs teach discipline and are character building. They provide good exercise, social skills and expand knowledge. Some studies suggest martial arts may even reduce hostility. For the disciplined enthusiast, these activities will certainly provide excellent self defense skills. But at what cost? And for the average person will they adequately prepare the occasional participant for real-life violence? The answer, unfortunately, is that they do not.
