Ghost,
I agree with a lot of what you had to say and understand your frustration with the politics in JKD. However, there is just as much politics in other systems... BJJ being one of them.
I hate the fact that there is politics in JKD and there always seems to be some petty arguments going on. My suggestion to you is simple....
You make the stand and let people see what JKD is suppose to be about by teaching them the right way... without the politics and without all the BS.
I am a JKD guy although I have training in Boxing, Muay Thai, FMA and different grappling arts. One of my JKD instructors was Sifu Larry Hartsell and he would always say... "if everyone would just give credit to the person that trained them then there would be no politics in JKD today." I make it a point to do that all the time.
Just my take it on it guy...
Tim
