How To Deal With A Flash Mob Using Karate, Kung Fu Or Kenpo!

People shouting and yelling, it is like a riot, and fifty teenagers are grabbing everything they can and heading for the doors. This kind of thing doesn't happen? It is happening, and in major cities everywhere, and the only solution is to use a little Karate or Kung Fu or some other Martial Art, or whatever martial art you know, to survive the situation.

The flash mob phenomenon is illegal, destructive, against the law, and the mark of a society failing. These are kids, they should be in school, yet they are laughing and stealing and have no sense of responsible behavior. But just because society is failing doesn't mean that a few well meaning individuals shouldn't stand up and be counted to stop this kind of behavior.

First, people in these flash mobs don't usually want to fight, but that doesn't mean they won't. These teenagers are a mob, and if they happen to come across an old lady in their way, they won't hesitate. They will knock her down, steal her money, and laugh on the way to the street.

If you see somebody about to be overwhelmed, it might be time to do a body tackle that knocks a bunch of mobbers into other mobbers. This would be the bowling pin strategy, and it works well. A bunch of kids all tangled up in a pile on the floor may suddenly change their flash mob ideas into getting the heck out of a bad situation.

Another tactic, maybe if you see a bunch of kids trying to grab the register, is to push displays into them. Simply grab the display and throw it at the kids. They will go from thinking about the register, to wondering why the world is falling on them.

A tactic which, if enacted on, would end the Flash Mob chronicle going on in todays society, is one you have to be very careful of. After all, you don't want to be arrested for hurting people. Still, if you find yourself attacked, you might consider this next Martial Arts tactic.

Break one of the mobbers limbs. Simply use your martial arts and do some fast but not long lasting damage. Mind you, I am not advocating murder, or damaging someone just because you can, I am simply saying that if you find yourself in one of these mob sitations, a little self defense to break an arm or leg might alter the intent of the mob, would definitely protect you, and, think about it, how is little Johnny going to explain a broken arm to his parents?

Gee, Mom, we were knocking over a store, and when I attacked this guy he broke my arm...I didn't really do anything. Do you see the logical way of breaking budding criminals excitement for mobbing? Mind you, I am not advocating using Karate, Kung Fu, or some other martial art to just hurt people, I am saying you have a second amendment right to self protection, and to defend your friends and society at large from the criminal behavior of a few criminally acting kids who, with proper guidance, might grow up to be good citizens.
