Salam Guro Crafty,

This is honestly the first time I read the forum.  I see you are a patriot of your country.  As a patriot, you could understand my patriotism or loyalty towards my ideals and beliefs.

I do not endorse any kind of Terrorism, Criminal activities.

The reason why the DBMA appealed to me so much was the Open-minded approach to Martial Arts.  It is a breath of fresh air.  

You are a visionary in my eyes and I have always admired and respected what the DBMA was all about.

It just totally suprised me when I took a close look at that photo that maybe that was me with the bullet holes or my family or students....

Please understand from my point of view... I have taught other foreigners here, are they going to use their knowledge to kill my fellow muslims???

Is it that the true peaceful Islam has been buried under extremism?? Radicalism??

Believe me Guro Crafty... I was just surprised that's all.  All respect to your discipline and God bless.

Salam Crafty,

Thank you for your intelligent and courteous reply.  If you are targeting the Facist or extremist amongst the muslims... terrorists, criminals, pirates, so be it.  But amongst all people there are criminals and garbage.  

I am sorry if I have taken the photo to mean something else.  

Thank you for your explanation.

Wasalam

Martial Arts Topics / Question??
« on: June 04, 2006, 07:12:53 AM »
Hello, I'm new to this forum, but always have been a DBMA fan!!  I teach FMA / Self-defense here in the Philippines and I constantly refer to the DBMA to help promote the FMA amongst the Filipinos here.

From what I saw on the clip... it looks very nice and well-organised.  I am very proud of the DBMA in their pursuit for absolute perfection in Martial Arts.

I actually endorse the DBMA amongst other FMA forums and I open alot of discussions among other FMA practioners here in PI with "you better keep pushing yourselves in FMA or you'll be left in the dust".

Thanks to organizations like the DBMA, who have vision and Balls to do it... FMA is now worldwide.  

I salute you.

One thing I want to say...please do not take offense, but I am a Filipino Muslim and when I saw the "Enlarged Photo of Suarez t-shirt and the picture of the muslim with bullet holes in him..."  I felt uneasy and I think it would be wise to remove that photo, since I won't be the only muslim reading your site.  I took the photo with a grain of salt but felt upset since you are supposed to be practioners of Silat.  HOw could you do or think that way of us muslims???  Have we not been nice enough to share our art with you???

I don't know.... I actually feel embarassed because the muslims that have taught you Silat haven't shown you enough positive Islam to influence you to never think of us that way.

O well just had to tell you...please don't take it the wrong way.  DBMA is still the best FMA there in the States.... please don't teach to hate my people... we are not your enemy.
