black tiger

[jmd161]

Basically.
In Hung-Kuen, the term Black is usually used when referring to more vicious techniques. It could simply be the name they chose to match the image they were seeking.

Remember Black Talons? Black,9mm notched hollow points. They made such a big stink about them, that they were taken off the market."They cut through the body like a buzzsaw"was some of the bad press the politicians used.

The exact same bullet is produced by another company and they're called,"Golden Sabers." Shiny Gold notched hollow points.Very heroic-no ban.
Look at Glazer "Safety Slugs." A safe, happy bullet. Great for kids and pets!

If they painted the bullets powder blue and named them "Fluffies," there never would've been a problem.

So, if you wanted you style to strike fear in the hearts of men, would you name it "Fuzzy Tiger," or "Black Tiger?"

You're pretty much right on with this as pertaining to Hak Fu Mun. Hak Fu Mun was named so as to So Hak Fu's nick name given to him by his father, as said earlier. A Black Tiger is very rare and unlike a White Tiger which is forthright, a black Tiger is deceptive, sneaky and devious. Hak Fu Mun has often been considered occult.

Greetings,

The term "African American" is actually improper English. The correct term is American African, Amer-African for short.

The term "African American" actually refers to people who live in Africa who are of American ancestry.

"african american" is PC horse hockey.

Just 'American' will do.

Hi DJ,

I understand what you mean, fully. Oftentimes, those terms are used more to differentiate than to bring people together. We still have the the American Chinese, the Chinese Americans, and so on.

I know, it happens up here in canuckistan too. "scottish canadian" is my favorite. lol. especially when one considers most of these folks have never even been to scotland.

when people ask me, I tell em I'm Canadian. When they say, yeah, but what's your background, I strongly reiterate.

Born, bred and raised and allied to no other. Oh yeah eh.

I think we give ourselves mental handjobs all the time. I think we trap ourselves into little boxes of reality that are removed from actual reality. I've done it myself.

But, if you are gonna profess a nationality, why not the nation you're in?

Point being, nationality is not ethnicity, ethnicity is not race. we are all human, period and we live in nations by construct.

Nobodies telling you what to be. On my part, I'm stating my beliefs and one of them is that clinging to the concept of ethnicity is an error and is reflective of underlying racism and is used as a mechanism of racism. Which is also another construct that we create ourselves to further separate ourselves from each other and thereby impeding our growth mentally and spiritually as beings.

The more boxes we put ourselves in, the more we lose our ability to grow.

and that's all I'll say about it.

Of course, if that offends you and makes you want to delete the thread, then so be it. It's just a thread.

I think the point is having a standard. Sure, you can call yourself whatever you want, fair enough, but making up terms in order to somehow soothe someone's oversensitive nature will only confuse those with whom you are trying to communicate.
