What is the Most Effective Combatives System...

What is the most effective Combatives System... During my brief stay on Paris Island, the US Marines were transitioning from LINE (Linear Infighting Nuero-Overide Engagement) to something else... They didn't know exactly what else, so newbies in 1999 were taught old school USMC Combatives. The Viet Nam era stuff built on the back of World War II Combatives...

The difference was the Navy and the USMC (which is a department of the Navy, by the way), took the framework but not all the techniques. The Viet Nam era combatives was based on Karate, Judo & Boxing... Marine Recruits were trained in simple escapes from bear hugs, wrist grabs, throats grabs & joint-locks. They learned a hand full of joint-locks, throws, takedowns, punching, kick, in-fighting (knees and elbows) & strikes to a few simple vital area. Killing techniques were ultra simple and proven to work, the basic strategy was one sided... Close the gap with basic boxing (punches), (kicks were taught but, also taught not to be relied on and you only learned 4 front, back & side were standing kicks & a stomp kick used to kill a downed enemy), use a vital point strike to stun or injure the attacker, throw them to the ground or take them down & finish the enemy with a Stomp Kick to the Temple, Throat, Xyphoid Process, Ribs or if you want to injure them, knees and ankles.

I also learned Generation 1, Modern Army Combatives which is now publicly available as Gracie Combatives. I was awarded in the Army for Teaching my own Combatives System to my fellow soldiers. This was because I felt the ground grappling only system was one sided and not truly effective... A fun story about this highlights the issue. I was stationed in Korea and in Korea, Tae Kwon Do is the National Sport, there are more Dojangs on every other street corner then their are convenience stores. The Republic of Korea (ROK, South Korea) teaches three sports to their citizens and those same sports are common in the Military. Yudo (Judo just how the Koreans pronounce it), Tae Kwon Do and some sumo-like Korean art (basically sumo, I don't know if it was adopted after the Japanese invasion of Korea over centuries or after WW2 or if the Japanese stole it from the Koreans). Anyway, if you understand this, you understand Koreas are very well rounded in martial arts culturally... So I was witness to a Korean Soldier knocking out an American Soldier in a bar, in South Korea. How did this come about, a tall lanking loud mouth who thought he was unbeatable because he studied Brazillian Jui-jitsu (or so he claimed, I suspect it was just MAC). Challenged a KATUSA (Korean Soldiers attatched to the US Military) to fight, while they were drinking & the KATUSA knocked him out cold... with three kicks; the first to the stomach to stop a takedown attempt, then one to the knee to bring the US soldier down to ground and the last one to the head.

See MAC generation two started adding Muay Thai and other aspects to make the system more rounded out. Generation one focused on ground grappling. So when I got to working on my own combatives system for my Platoon, I was already looking at certain elements of Muay Thai & Karate to add to it. Something I was later teaching my Compnay as well. But, I took some inspiration from the older USMC combatives system I was taught as well. So you have to understand there are three different combatives systems we are talking about here.

Modern Army Combatives which was all groundfighting, Viet Nam era Combatives mixing Boxing, Karate & Judo and World War 2 Combatives based on Kung-fu, Boxing & Judo. So which is better? None of them is better because they were designed for different eras and show an evolution of thinking...

In World War 2, the idea of hand-to-hand combat was pretty much useless. Soldiers were using rifles like the M1 Garand which was 30-06, a high powered and long range effective weapon. Some special units like the paratroopers of World War 2, were issued M1 Carbine which were .30 caliber (7.62x33mm) round. There was little to stop these heavy and high powered rounds from penetrating the body. So vital point strikes as seen in World War II combatives was preferred as it meant that Soldiers in combat could learn simple, effective and straight forward means of disabling an opponent in a fast and dirty fashion... However, technology is the issue here.

In Viet Nam, US Soldiers were beginning to wear "Flak Vests" a form of body armor which stopped shrapnel from bombs and grenades but didn't really stop bullets. They were alleged to be able to stop a pistol round, however the issue of technology appears again. Wearing these vests limited the effectiveness of strikes and the WWII occupation of Japan spread the arts of Judo and Karate through the military. So the old World War II system was adapted and adopted methods from these systems. Striking still had a focus but, grappling took a greater focus because some of the Viet Cong were wearing US Military Flak vests, which wasn't effective against gun fire was limiting to unarmed combat and even armed combat with knives, e-tools & sticks. Native martial arts of Viet Nam required soldiers to have greater skill at unarmed combat and so striking and grappling took about even measure in the Combatives System.

Modern Army Combatives, again technology plays a role. We place a greater focus on grappling or more specifically ground grappling with the Generation I MAC. This is good on so many levels and bod on others...
1. Ground fighting was something the older systems lacked...
2. All these MMA jocks online are fucking idiots. The UFC has dick to do with combat or realistic conditions. So lets apply ground fighting to some simulated realistic conditions. Put 2 people in a room with friends on either side and armed with paint ball guns. They get to use whatever combat system they like and their friends cam shoot at them or each other... That's why ground fighting is good, the Army (and Marines for that matter) teach you drop prone and return fire. Why prone? Because standing targets are easier to shoot.
So now the Generation 2 of Modern Army Combatives has ignored the vital point strikes & is focused more on the basic punching and kicking, infighting and ground grappling of a blend of Gracie Jui-jitsu (MAC Gen 1) and Muay Thai with some elements of Karate. Ultimately, this is the which is better debate of Karate or Judo, & before that it was Boxing or Wrestling... Basically, it is the question of what is better striking or grappling?
Here is my answer...
The world changes, technology changes are lives & with it social needs and functions. The Japanese Samurai wore armor & the Chinese styles often wear less ridged armor having a great amount of metal then the Japanese. Many Chinese styles were not used for the military and some wear used by conscripts and village militia who had to furnish their own weapons & armor. All of these are constructs of the thinking, society, resources and technology available to those in that part of the world. There is not better or best, anything only what is best under those conditions... Honestly, knowing how to hit a vital area is just as important as knowing how to grappling on the ground. A palm heel strike to the chin will knock you out just as easily standing as it will from the mount, as does a rear naked choke from stand-up or the rear mount and, pulling guard lets me use you as a human shield just as, provides a prone position's cover against gun fire & keeps someone from taking the mount.

There is no better or best arts, just better people and the best way for them to train to develop themselves.

Rats on a Sinking Ship are Smarter then "Internet Ninjas."

So for the last few days I have been playing with Roley. Cat and mouse verbally. Don has been proving my basically right because he is open denial of material facts... He bases his entire attempt at discrediting on a News Paper article but fails to address other pieces of evidence like the West Virginia State Codes (state laws) that make the report valid and the report itself which shows Donald James Roley is a liar and not a very good researcher, as you will see in the screenshots below.

He literally and intentionally, ignores information not to his liking and makes up excuses for bypassing such information to push his own agenda... Don Roley doesn't do research he preaches propaganda. If I am wrong well, that's how he presents himself.

From the Comments from Roley Can't Prove Himself, I will call him Reek:
Now the above image is interesting because after I called out Don Roley for his lies. He of course has to show to my blog saying it isn't so... But, Reek fell into my trap like Ramsey Bolton playing his cat and mouse games with  Theon Bolton. (In a metaphoric sense)
So if we read below we can see that Don Roley has lied in the past and continues to lie now. You will also see my responses...
As you can see I have pointed out that Don Roley, has repeatedly lied about me in his blog.
 A continuation of me requesting that Don prove his accusations that I am a sex offender. I mean if you want to know just check the WV Sex Offender registry here. If I was on it, I wouldn't tell you to find my name.
 And here, this starts Don's excuses but no proof...

 Here Don, wants me to know he has such a great life, after telling me if I die no obe would care... I read that to the friends I spent Christmas with and well had a good laugh. Regardless, I point for the 2nd time Don hasn't proven his claims.
Here is the point I told Don I would file the law suit between 1st of January and the 28th.
 Here is the 3rd time I mentioned to Don he can't prove his lies. I also asked if the "No One would care if I died" line was the same line he gave to Dan Harmon, that harassed Fan to the point of taking his own life.
This is gonna be important because, I told Don that certain mannerisms and his mentality reminded me of certain child predators I had been locked up with. I also accused Don of hiding behind his family. He didn't respond to this, he didn't deny it...
In fact, not only had Don not denied it he went off about my "Mental illness" as if I hit on something here and he was trying to discredit me. But, this him talking about his only evidence against me.
Here is where I told Don if I am mentally ill then he has a record of harassing mentally ill people, Dan Harmon and myself. So me being crazy doesn't help him look like any better of a person.

I also explained to Don, why the article was of no use.
 Here I challenged Don to prove his claims about me and a 13 year old girl (4th Time btw). Don Roley again points to the news paper article ignoring my statement that Raleigh County Prosecutor Kristen Keller lied and didn't provide Dr. Miller with the proper evidence.
And again, Don Roley turns to the news article. Which is fine with me because, it sets the stage to discuss the facts I just addressed. Now here is the thing, what do you trust more the article or the actual doctors report because citing the article Roley ignores the actual doctors report... Lets examine it further.
Here I point out that if Roley is right and I am mentally disabled, he arguing with a crazy person, on Christmas no less... More so, I start correcting his claims. He says "experts" when in fact there was only one Dr. Miller and I ask Don to Prove his claims my Terrorist Threats case was dismissed because of Dr. Miller's report.
 Again, I ask Don to prove that I am sex offender... Don has made public statements I am a pedophile so lets see him prove it. For the fifth time.
I even gave him the web address for the WV Sex Offender Registry:
https://apps.wv.gov/StatePolice/SexOffender/Disclaimer

Did he go to the Sex Offender Registry and prove it? (Yes, its that easy) No... He just kept saying I did things a 13 year old girl and didn't once go there and prove I was a pedophile.
Here Don mentions some criminal offense under Colorado law about criminal defamation. This is from another series of comments and makes no sense if you are reading this series of comments.
Here I again address Don Roley's lack of proving his accusations. And point for the second time that if he is correct and I am crazy. He is harassing a crazy person on Christmas.
 Don again, continues to claim I am mentally ill... To which I again remind him je is arguing with what he claims is a crazy person over the internet, as opposed to anything else... On Christmas which makes his claim that I know nothing of the law and am mentally ill seem quite false. He also claims I will not sue him.
Again for the seventh time, I ask Don Roley to prove I was involved in any sexual misconduct with a 13 year old girl. That I went to prison (which would make me a felon) for trying to rape a 13 year old girl.
Here Don tries to dissuade me from filing a law suit because, "he can surprise me with sources and such like" but as the person bringing the suit I "can't surprise" him. This is Bull shit if you understand the law or at a minimum Rules of Discovery.
Oh and he suggested he might try to hide or conceal evidence.


 This and previous images between this statement and my last, all deal with me explaining that Don can't use a Mattock style "Surprise Evidence" defense.
You can also see I explained to him that public statements that je might try to conceal evidence are in fact, destructive to his defense. Additionally, I stated I can prove his claims about me false.
 Here I explain to Don that when pressed he can't prove anything he claims and I can prove my own claims about him. I asked him to prove for the eighth time that I was involved in Sexual Misconduct; he has claimed found naked with a 13 year old girl.
Here I point out Senior Grandmaster "Douche bag" responsible for the BDFS and my own appearance at Don Roley's seminar in Lexington. Is Key to crippling Don Roley's prepared legal defense, that "I intended to intimidate him at his seminar."
 In fact, here I explain to Don that without my testimony he can do nothing against the BDFS and that the BDFS could sue Grandmaster "Douche bag" for using the name to take action as was seen in Lexington.

I then went on to explain to Don his only defense lies in claiming I am mentally ill. Its all he has to excuse his public proclamations which are defamatory and used to harm my business of teaching martial arts and writing about martial arts.
Here I ask Don why the video on Why I am Happy with my Jacked Up Life. Has Assistant Prosecutor Pat Lamp saying there was no 2nd Search Warrant & why the Arrest Warrant says there was a 2nd Search Warrant?

See for yourself...
Video:

Arrest Warrant for Child Porn (not case was dismissed without going to trial December 3rd 2013):
See I will let you look at the evidence and decide what the facts are... If the prosecutor lied about the 2nd Search Warrant on the Arrest Warrant then why? Is doesn't that mean the cops messed up claiming the second search warrant on the arrest warrant?
Here I ask Don to explain why the psychological evaluation (of which his news article is based)  is in violation of West Virginia Code 27-6A-2 subsection (b) items 1, 2 & 4. With said report lacking the mandatory Information related to case 13F-1026, the case number for the Terrorist Threats case.
Here Don, tells me "no one believes" me that I was set up. And as I begin to explain to Don it doesn't matter that he "believes"  or what other "people believe." It matters that "I am showing established facts  and legal codes of law which were not followed."
Here I state the simplest truth, that what he (or anyone else, for that matter) "chooses to believe" doesn't change those facts.

Here I ask Don what supports his claims otherwise? What supports his claims I went to prison for trying to rape a 13 year old girl? (9th time) What supports his claims I am a pedophile? (I will still count this as the ninth time).
Here I point out that Don Roley has brought forward no evidence except a news article. And is ignoring the psychological evaluation (that they never had) that their article was based on. And I copy and paste WV Code 27-6A-2 subsection (b) for Roley...

Compare the text of my comment to the text of the West Virginia State Code website http://www.legis.state.wv.us/WvCoDe/ChapterEntire.cfm?chap=27&art=6A

Screen shots of the code are below...
This part contains subsection (a) & (b) but shows the code as 27-6A-2.
Here we see subsection (b) & the relevant area of code in which the person requesting the evaluation must therefore supply evidence to the evaluating forensic evaluator. Item 1 is a copy of the Warrant or Indictment, item 2 is all evidence pertaining to the alleged crime and item 4 is a copy of the defendant's criminal record (which might have been included but not fully so). This extends below.

Here I mentioned the case number for Terrorist Threats was 13F-1026 and how the court order for the evaluation is 13F-1026 but that the arrest warrant doesn't show. In fact, the officer's name and date of offense as understood by Dr. Miller does match the unsubmitted warrant either.

The rest below is me explaining the "vast conspiracy" (as Don calls it) is simply multiple smaller criminal conspiracies coming together to conceal said smaller criminal conspiracies.

Here I accuse Don of being in a criminal conspiracy with Phil Elmore and Barron Shepherd to defame me.
Here I touch on the Bujinkan as cult seeking to claim they are the only true source of ninjutsu on the planet. Now that will be the focus of Ninjas are Bull Shit 3.
Here I tell Roley he doesn't do Legitimate research, certainly not into other people's backgrounds and definitely not into historical claims... Such as Fujita Seiko's belief that Okinawan Karate and Kobudo was superior to Japanese martial arts. That he had a connection to Shito Ryu Karate (trained its first two Soke, who were both Okinawan) and is also claimed to have taught them Ninjutsu.

That information alone throws into contention that that all "legitimate ninjutsu" should look like the Bujinkan or that people like Ashida Kim & Frank Dux are frauds because their Ninjutsu resembles Karate. And I used an image for a Karate blog that has existed for 6 years... If Don Roley was invested in doing honest research into Fujita Seiko, I would think he would have looked into Shito Ryu's connection to Fujita and Fujita's extensive connection to Okinawan Karate and Kobudo.

Here I tell Don, he will either have to face the lies he has told on me here or in court. I've already covered those lies before this with nothing to show for it...
Here I tell Don Roley the outcome of the suit will destroy his business. This wasn't a threat to destroy his business but an observation of facts and a prediction based on them.

If I prove Don Roley defamed my name and ignored material facts to attempt to cover up his own misconduct. And, because my case is so easy to prove it opens the flood gates for others to also file suit. And of course nothing could be more creditable to Don Roley helping to make my accusations look creditable then him coming here to challenge them.
Here Don says I am not important enough for a gang of criminals to try to entrap me. He is kind of right, except my "recruiter" introduced me to many of the local key players. Knowing who does what means you can, can dig deeper...

Someone like me who at the time was associated with known "big wigs" in the martial arts industry (yes, Ashida Kim love or hate him would count) as well as the many instructors under him in the Friendship Dojo and BDFS would have had an excuse to travel out of state purchase drugs for the gang (under the radar) and come back to West Virginia to sell them for a higher price. Course the gang does the selling and I get maybe 10% to 15% of sells.

Meaning if I brought in $3,000 of cocaine from Florida and the gang stepped on it and made double or triple their money $6,000 to $9,000 I would get $600 to $900 for myself. More then likely, I would get $300.

Now are you willing to risk Federal Prison for $300? Cause I ain't. However, the fear of what I might know and not what I actually knew drove all this home. This is clearly a more criminal case of the FBI warning that extremists might try to target military veterans for recruitment. And while I am not saying the Avengers MC is a terrorist organization, there have been reports of criminal gangs in the Military for sometime now. I don't see why my life should be any some how unique to these problems.
Here I tell Don that it doesn't matter that he or other people believe me about orgaized crime connection. It matters that... (Full list below)
1. How does Don Roley explain the arrest warrant mentioning a 2nd search warrant and a video of Pat Lamp denying the second search warrant is on the Arrest Warrant?

BTW, at my initial appearance I had my mother to get a copy of the Arrest Warrant because the state wouldn't give it to me. They said I would get it in discovery and they never turned over discovery...

2. I asked if it struck him as odd?
3. I asked Don if he was ignoring facts to push his own agenda?

Now these are, self-incriminating questions. Questions Don Roley will have to answer if he takes the stand in his own defense. He cannot claim his 5th Amendment rights. However, I have accused him of this as previously shown and it was my intent to demonstrate Don Roley's lack of research. As well as Don Roley's intent to push an agenda?

4. I ask Don to explain why the psychological evaluation doesn't match WV Code 27-6A-2 subsection (b)?

This has a clear intent to get Roley to make an admission of material facts. As a) if Don were to do so he would it would mean he was either using false information to knowing libel and slander me name or b) was unknowingly doing so. Thus establishing proof of intent...

And I am allowing Don to have an "out" as to lack of intent.
Here Don Roley defends the evidence his claims are based on bad or false information. Don does so with of course lies and slander... Proving intent to conceal facts not to his liking (obviously destructive to his credibility as a researcher), which is a key point in proving his intent to harm my business.

Here I asked to same 4 questions with the same intent... Giving Don a second chance at salvation and to come clean.
Again Don Roley goes into lies and defamation to create a defense for his lies and defamation. I ask him to prove his claim that material facts are lies or misrepresented?
I confront Don with the two Blogs containing evidence.
Barron Shepherd proven a liar & Motivation: Why I am Happy.
Here I confront Don Roley with the evidence directly... A page from the psychological evaluation that contains information submitted to Dr. Miller and the Terrorist Threats arrest warrant. Again, I ask Don why the Case Number on the Court is 13F-1026 and why the arrest warrant have a case number of 13F-1026. But the arrest warrant doesn't show up as per West Virginia Code 27-6A-2 (b) item 1?
Here I tell Don he will have to answer questions about the evidence and prove his claims I am lying or crazy. And for the 10th time I ask Don to prove his claims I am a child predator and was found with a naked 13 year old girl.
Here is Don insulting me, calling me stupid and attacking me personally, because Don Roley can't prove his slanderous claims.
Again here I stand showing Don Roley didn't know his law and that West Virginia Code proves his claim that I the Terrorist Threats case was dismissed because I was found unfit to stand trial. Again I post the link to the West Virginia codes online.
http://www.legis.state.wv.us/WVCODe/ChapterEntire.cfm?chap=27&art=6A
 This first image only goes so far as to the title code 27-6A-3 but you need to look at subsection (f).
Here is subsection (f) pretaining to those found incompetent but with the likelihood of regaining competency. This is important as it was stated Dr. Miller believed I could regain competency. Also when addressed to Don he claims the code doesn't say what I say it does... Even though I just copy and pasted the information from the state's own site.


This and the other 2 screenshots above it deal with the rest of the Code mentioned above.
Again when confronted by facts, Don Roley ignores them?
Here I state plainly Don pointing to one piece of evidence and claiming it is proof doesn't help his case, except fpr those who already support him and organization he represents. The Bujinkan...
Here Don chooses to take the article as evidence, second hand knowledge and not the first hand evidence of the codes of law that make the evaluation relevant and evaluation on which the Article he clings to like a life preserver are based.


Here is when I confronted Don, with his article and the law. Don says that when I pointed out that he was committing a crime under Colorado law by slandering others, I threatened him. Whatever... It is his only defense against being faced with facts he cannot disprove or explain and he fears to opnely lie about... Except his previous lies that is.



Here I tell Don Roley that whole blog is a testament to his lies  and failure? See Don Roley has been publicly exposed by me concerning his lies and inability to prove his claims.

Don fails to grasp the reality of the situation... He challenged me to come to his seminar, an attempt to defend Barron Shepherd who backed out of coming to Ruckus in the Cage and who backed out of showing up in Lexington to Don Roley's seminar after I called Barron out.

Remember Barron tried to set me up in Florida & Don in my opinion and based on facts I stated before hand I predicted Don Roley was trying to do the same in Lexington.

This certainly shows Barron and Don working to support each other & protecting each other. Well actually it shows Don Roley seeking to protect Barron Shepherd. Barron has actually pulled away and left Don Roley hanging now that I have used Don Roley as a platform for exposing the lies...
Here (above) is what a google search for Ron Collins Koga Ryu Ninjutsu blog turned up...
Click on the Link for RON COLLINS FAKE NINJA MORE LIES & Barron seems to have taken everything down.
 Another blog about me above taken down.
 Dick-tuck.com which mirrors the Koga Ryu blog lies. Seen above from google search...
 And the Koga Ryu blog is mirrors...
 Are both missing...
Course Barron isn't the brightest bulb on the Christmas tree. He left up the Combative Edge blog slandering my name. Know what makes it worse...

Barron proves me right by doing things which seem like the very Racketeering & Unfair business practices claim I have leveled against you all. Barron did this by attempting to copy my World War 2 combatives course and The Shadow Warrior edition of Get Tough.
My Question Don, is how does it feel to see your friends abandon you and leave you holding the bag?

Barron can copy my products it is not a big deal, especially something like Get Tough, which has already fallen into domain, the only difference is that I added my own insights as someone trained in Modern Army Combatives (Generation One) for the Shadow Warrior edition. By competing with me, even copying me but not so much, Barron enters into criminal grounds by Slandering my name, while doing so.

And this was the person you want to protect? Even Rats are smart enough to abandon a sinking ship...
