Karate Kids Cause Controversy
Free, youth-orientated martial arts programmes have gained popularity in communities where youth crime is a problem.
I’ve encountered with 4 choices
1. “What better way to keep kids off of the streets?” asks Diego Montgomery, a professional judo instructor. “It’s fun, good exercise and gives an invaluable insight into our nation’s culture! Judo teaches personal balance, and it improves the health of both mind and body. But self-defence programmes like mine will need government funding to really make a difference – surely the public wouldn’t mind paying a little more tax to put an end to the gangs of yobs prowling the streets?”
2. “It’s a good idea, but it’s not taking it far enough!” declares General Kathryn Svensson, after ranting about ‘kids these days’. “If we could conscript these hoodlums into the army, we’d be able to put their skills to good use. No one would mess with NATIONSNAME if we had a butt-kickin’ karate unit on the battlefield! It may be a little expensive, but we can just take money out of the education budget since these kids will be under our tuition. Their families may not be happy about it, but remember this: these young lads will be getting to do something which is the envy of every hot-blooded citizen – fight for their country against blood-sucking foreigners!”
3. “This is ridiculous!” comments police officer, Oswald Capulet. “Teach junior thugs how to fight? Good idea, why don’t we teach them how to make bombs out of duct-tape and cheese next? I say we ban this archaic mode of combat which only serves to encourage these punks in their violent ways, and introduce more government funding for the police force! With more cash we could really show the little blighters what discipline’s all about.”
4. “Discipline? Oh heavens no, our lives are already too restricted by the iron cage of rules and policing,” says unorthodox youth pastor Velma Holt, seen weaving a basket from blades of grass. “Our young people need to reconnect with the spirit within, and the best way to do that is to be one with nature and appreciate the bounty all around us. Redirect some of those police funds to my summer camps, and then youths can learn how to live freely and simply by crafting their own supplies from scratch.”
