Karate and Kung Fu are no match for a gun. If you strolled up in the ghetto karate-chopping people, you'd end up in a body bag.
I think karate is like a self- motivator. I think it just makes people feel better and safer about themselves and their ability to handle a situation...

They are useful for fitness reasons.. however for fighting reasons, no.. most people who know martial arts end up in more fights because they are always looking for fights or suspecting others!
People who don't think about fights, never get into street fights and move away from dangerous situations easily.

I once dated a Mormon guy who told me he had had a very violent temper, and he studied Karate, and got a black belt, and it had the effect of losing his violent temper. He said it just calmed him down, so that he never had it anymore.
I think that's pretty useful.

Yes, very much so. Not only do they teach how to defend yourself, they also teach self discipline, build self esteem, are a good form of exercise, they teach respect and patience as well.

Absolutely, and Paulo is completely wrong. If you trained then you know to use your brain first be diplomatic and avoid comfrontational situatiuons not look for fights.
