Yeager gives INGO shoutout - and appendix carry

[OneBadV8]

Yeah... who are you offering it to, anyway? I like free classes.

 

[HICKMAN]

Now that I think about it, if I did one, even if it was a perfect educational tool, 99% of the responses would be about my enhanced physique and how I should get in shape before I worry about gun stuff.

They would just be mad they couldn't appendix carry an M4 like you

Does ACT have some new instructors I havent met?

Well I have to be honest, I've only ever taken 1 class with them and Rhino wasn't there so maybe I didn't get to see "the whole deal" in person, but I know from my experience they are stand-up guys.

BSing between long-time friends, acquaintences etc is just that, BSing... and I assume that is what you meant by your comment... but for a supposed "professional" trainer to call a person he doesn't even know dishonorable is a very different story... especially when that person has been honorably serving our country in the Armed Forces for more years than the "James Yeager" name has even been widely known.

It was just a little poke at the ACT guys. I was kidding. :-)

I wonder what would have happened if Yeager had threatened one of the "chosen ones" on this board. I doubt if this video would still be here.

Who are the "Chosen ones"?

Seriously, you take that as a threat? I take it as an internet personality bumping ratings.

I heard it was that lovemachine guy. Nobody ever picks on that guy and gets away with it.

Seems that someone may have backed themselves into a corner.

I may be mis-reading your post but are you implying that everything other than the information being presented is unimportant?

By "unimportant" I was referring to those things of little consequence, like the size of his t-shirt, the style of his beard, or the twitch of his arm. Often it seems that those who can't effectively argue with the information that's presented will default to picking on such things instead.

If someone isn't fond of a particular teaching style that is certainly fine, as it does indeed matter.

ETA, if you found out that your child's 3rd grade teacher was JY and he taught math to your children the way he conducts himself in these videos would you brush it off and say, "Eh, the manner in which he teaches isn't important, he's a smart man and he knows a lot about the subject he is teaching so my child is in good hands."

I see the parallel you're trying to draw here but I see a major difference between the kind of person I want teaching my child the basics of reading and writing and the kind of person I want to learn defensive firearms skills from. Of course I wouldn't want JY teaching my child, as much as I wouldn't want my son's 1st grade teacher teaching me how to fight.

Yeager's style is VERY different than my own. But, knowing that, I'm certainly willing to see what he and his school have to offer me. I can learn something from anyone.

I wonder what would have happened if Yeager had threatened one of the "chosen ones" on this board. I doubt if this video would still be here.

As I discussed in a previous post, no rules were broken that we could've acted on. There aren't "chosen ones" that get special treatment when it comes to discipline, even though its fun to think there is. Hell, I gave my own Father an infraction once. Rules are rules.

Oh, they all are. They all are.

Thank you, sir! Perhaps you can participate in another class and we'll meet then.

All the torment you've given me, if I was a MOD, I'd have banned your *** a long time ago

Oh you give it right back. If I was a MOD, I wouldn't ban you though. I could take a joke.

And I highly doubt I'm anywhere at the top of the list for tormenting you. Rhino has to be pretty high up there.

One man's torment is another man's bromance.

One man's wry observation is obviously a snow-phobic ginger's wishful thinking.
