http://www.thebest354.com/selfdefense -Street fighting

*It’s them against you!* Your heart’s racing, your mouth is dry, yourhands are sweating and you suddenly realize that *this is life ordeath* *!* The “safe moves” won’t cut it out on the streets…

From:* Jeff Anderson, PresidentInternational Society of Close Quarter Combatants

Look my friend…

I’m not going to waste your time with a bunch of garbage about “why selfdefense is important” and all that.

You should already know that it’severyone’s right and responsibility to be able to protect themselves andthose they love.

You’re here because you want something more, right?

You’re here because you want real-life, no-holds-barred *street fighting techniques* that are designed to *break, crush and maim yourattackers*.  

You want the details on “dirty” street fighting techniquesthat are made for survival — and may even save your life.

None of this “twist your foot this way” or “move your wrist an extrahalf inch” crap that anybody can spout off in some kind of “karate 101″book.

The common street criminal knows that he doesn’t need to be a 10thdegree black belt to kick the living snot out of “Average Joe Citizen”.

He knows this because while you are walking around confident in your ownsafety and security, he’s bloodying his knuckles in real street combat!That means that…

…unless you’ve served hard time or been locked in realhand-to-hand combat in a war zone, you’re at a severe disadvantagein a real street fight! Until now! Because…

*What I’m About to Show You is Designed to Slaughter Your Opponent. Not Stun, Not Knock Down But Brutally Decimate Them ! *

These moves are designed to cripple, maim and possibly even kill an attacker.

This is precisely why they’re not allowed in any sportfighting or cage fighting match. They’re that dangerous and that effective.
