I agree with JJ Cop, in a perfect world u wanna use your training to achieve and maintain top position, if your taken or take a subject to the ground. However a friend of mine, who also trains (Barroom Hero Sherdog SN) slapped a sweet triangle on a guy who double legged him down to the ground. The guy was completely oblivious on what to do and collapsed. While it is not recomendable or ideal, at least u have the tool to use. So BJJ is very useful.

Yeah, who cares about law enforcement stories, I want something a little more hard core. Lets hear some groceries bagging stories...Jiu-Jitsu Cop said:Ok being such a violent job that you have I am not surprised that you have some stories. Could you please share some with us for this is fascinating to me. I used to use a paper bag all of the time since I have been a New Orleans Saints fan since 1974. :icon_chee
