Ronin' post is spot on, but I think its a perspective thing.

Well said brother.
Pak Mei has a bad rap because a lot of gangsters did the art, and buddhist or other 'good' men didn't like the ethic.
The fact that elements of the Police and military trained it as well seems to be...
the vid is awful.
Hey HTD, I would likewise like to know if there are any brothers in Houston, I still get into town once every year or two. Thanks again for putting me onto Yee Sifu a few years back.
