As a white belt I was at a school where leg locks were not "discriminated" against (if you wanna call it that). We were taught how to properly do leg locks and to tap early. Just because you're a white belt does not mean that you are retarded and can't be trained ina certain technique to the point where you understand it and won't be stupid. A white belt can be someone with up to maybe 2 1/2 years of training, and I'm sure someone that trained for that much time knows how joint locks work and if trained in them knows how to properly execute a knee bar just like an armbar. The color of the belt doesn't mean shit. When nate diaz was a blue he was tapping browns and i think some blacks in his early MMA career.
