that you chose a Dalai Lama avatar and yet you're egging on a fight?

“To conquer oneself is a greater victory than to conquer thousands in a battle.”

^^^That's an actual Dalai Lama quote!

if one were to look at the actions of the most Buddhist country in the world, Myanmar and the murder of its minorities, I see nothing wrong with a fair martial arts sport. Martial arts are part of Buddhist history.

the whole article was pretty interesting....
"According to tradition, the martial arts were founded around 520 A.D. by Bodhidharma, a great Buddha who brought Zen Buddhism from India to China. https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/volokh-conspiracy/wp/2017/01/11/the-martial-arts-are-arts/?utm_term=.507076e5ecb8

is to avoid combat, unless absolutely necessary. There's nothing wrong with being trained in self-defense, but it shouldn't be used to go out seeking to pick fights.

included competitions and defeating evil in the land. The monks won their greatest victory at Wengjiagang. On 21 July 1553, 120 warrior monks led by the Shaolin monk Tianyuan defeated a group of pirates and chased the survivors over ten days and twenty miles.The pirates suffered over one hundred casualties and the monks only four. The trump evil has invaded out land and must be driven out, grasshopper.

Oh, I can agree with that statement wholeheartedly.

Avenatti fighting Donny Jr. in a cage isn't going to advance the cause, however.

The Trumps have been safely hidden away behind their wealth for long enough. The Trumps regularly insult other people, knowing all the while that they have security that will handle any threats against them. They're nothing but craven pussies, and the world will see it when Donnie Jr. refuses to fight Avenatti. Those fuckers are finally getting some of the shit that they dish out.
