black tiger

[Phil Redmond]

Well, a black tiger is a tiger with an extremely rare genetic condition (makes them look black or almost black)... maybe it was chosen to seem mysterious

Or it could be sneaky street fighting techniques.

But if Doug hadn't resurrected the thread, I'd have missed the statement that "claw" arts are illegal in Texas! WTF? Surely that can't be true?

[David Jamieson]

i love the idea of illegal claw arts.

as ridiculous as it may be.

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?"

Juts call them Americans. The term African American would deceivingly imply that you have actually been born in Africa, or have some kind of affinity with the place other than that your great grandfathers great grandfather came from there. If I had to move to America (and became an American), would I be an African American? I was born in Africa. Not black tho.

Back to black tigers...

were there actually such things as black tigers in china?

yea that wasnt the point of the comment. im african american, my fathers parents came from africa but even if they didnt i would consider myself african american, nobody can tell me what i am, or what other people of african decent choose to associate themselves by. blh blah blah yackity shamackity. that wasnt the point of what i said i was making a rather amusing subtle joke about what one of the posters said about black being a fearful word. nothing about african american or american or none of that PC bullsh!t that i choose not to discuss or associate. this thread that i started so 7 or 8 years ago was about black tiger kung fu and thats what were discussing before you brought that **** up and just really cheesed me off. anyway back to the topic at hand, i'm not sure but i dont think there is a such thing as black tigers. if you read the above post you would see the reason thy call it black tigers and see why i said what i said above and then your gonna erase your nonsensical post because it was pointless. good morning

[Eddie]

sorry... my post was really tongue in cheek. Apologies if I offended you. If you didnt knwo that about me, then Im so sorry

I do actually have an article somewhere which I can contribute to this discussion (on the Black in Black tiger), but for some weird reason I cant seem to find it on my pc.

I know the Tai Sing Pek Gwa Black tiger form. Form is pretty fluid with quick foot work, slightly different to the other tiger forms I have seen.
