today we get a first on the channel the
first time I've ever seen a Defender use
nunchucks
hi friends welcome to today's lesson

for sponsoring today's video guy in the
red shirt is our robber here and uh the
guy that's the the owner of the shop the
behind the counter was a former
Bollywood actor from London and a
martial artist and a kickboxer we
actually have audio of their interaction
let's listen in
but
you want to pull one ahold
they're working
nice
look
s
and particular blocks with you
hey come here
obviously there was a time delay there
when he came back in because he chased
the guy for about 100 meters who then
laid down and and our shop owner got his
Bourbon and cola back and when the dude
got up he literally had his pants around
his ankles and so the store owner
literally let him go got his Cola back
didn't end up having to use the
nunchucks but they were there just in
case and we're gonna think lessons this
is funny I we're just gonna talk about
it fun fact until very recently the
state that I live in Arizona it was a
felony to carry nunchucks or to have
them on your person if you weren't going
to and from a martial arts school you
could carry a gun but not nunchucks
because they're magic ninja weapons all
right let's get to some lessons I don't
know that this guy gave a lot of
pre-attack indicators that he was a
thief but you know I I think that our
shop owner knows this kind of stuff
happens knows that somebody is there you
heard him say hey do you want a cold one
there's some cold ones in the back if
you don't you know you don't want a warm
one or whatever so that's what this is
all about and listen you absolutely have
a right to protect your store to protect
your employees to protect yourself and
and I think that using ordinary
reasonable Force to do so I think that
we we are tired of this kind of thing as
a society of people stealing from us
with impunity of people you know taking
other people's things that's immoral and
and we absolutely have always had the
right and it's well respected in the
United States to use the appropriate
ordinary Force to stop somebody taking
our property we're you know destroying
our property inappropriately and so I
don't have a single problem in the world
with that and and let's be very clear
that that grabbing this up and running
off is immoral and we should condemn it
and we should definitely be you know
working in our communities to instill
the morals in folks that say you leave
other people's things alone keep your
hands to yourself and and be kind to
other people as among our core Community
Values that we have and and so does our
our shop owner have the right to go and
stop this guy I think the question is an
absolute yes has the right to go and
stop the guy even though though it might
be somewhat risky because you don't know
if this guy can fight you don't know if
he has any weapons on him or anything
like that so our owner goes and gets the
nunchaku and I think this is a little
silly uh but you know I I don't really
know that nunchucks are actually a very
useful defensive tool I've actually
studied them just a little bit in my
martial arts training and and while they
look cool on the mats and in Qatar they
don't really have great use in actual
use of force it's a broken stick that
you're using
but uh does he have the right to have
them well you know I don't know New
Zealand's laws in Arizona until very
recently it was actually a felony to
have them uh on your person if you were
not on your way to or from a martial
arts school thankfully that changed
recently but I think is having a weapon
on your person if you say not not to say
hey I'm gonna go beat this guy from my
property but hey I'm gonna arm myself in
case he gets violent with me or he has a
weapon himself I'm keeping that in
reserve for my own personal defense I
don't have any problem with that at all
I think that's quite good insane and
sober and moral and prudent but he
doesn't beat the guy I think that's
great he gets his property back I think
that's great and then he goes about his
business I will say him letting the guy
go and just saying get the heck out of
here and you're not welcome back in my
store again I think that was a little
lenient I think it would have been
better served to wait for the cops to
show up with the guy and let the guy
face charges for what he's done but I
will say this is the first defensive use
of nunchucks I've seen on the channel
and this guy covered his asp
