![]() | Here's just a word of advice for those who use the Inosanto letter of 1993 as some type of a endorsement to ridicule others. The letter when viewed in it's entirety really shows a most unpleasant and unattractive face for Dan and Paula. They demonstrate a type of arrogance, "we do not approve" of the magazine writing a feature with out the Inosanto approval" that we would rather not see. They claim that Bruce Lee's "other" students were really Dan's students. They, not Bruce, created JKDC. Is it no wonder that the Bruce Lee estate took them to court...and they lost! If I were Dan or Paula I would I would be embarrassed that anyone would read the letter. There is talk about a class action suit being placed against the wealthy Inosanto Academy to seek damages to all those mentioned in the letter. They could end up in court again for the libel contained in the letter. Quote:
Let's also point out MW noted the Inosanto court case, not me. As the person who initiated that thread pointed out the Inosanto court case was not on his mind. "Are you people f**king kidding me !!! (o_0) .... Just who and the heck is talking about Guru Dan here, you are putting in your dam words & conscious into your post?.... This has nothing to due with any of BLS.... This is just an example of how anyone and the gramma that think they are connected to BL BLOWS things out of their azz, without actual reading the dam post.... " After I was drawn in to responding to WI Kali Group who introduced the letter into the thread it makes sense I would provide the other side of the story that so many conveniently edit out. How are you suppose to respond to an unknown person who calls you a fake by proxy? The Inosanto letter used my name as well as several others in what constitutes libel. I was not the focus of the letter and I have proven that point. Then there's SgtJim who joined the forum just to make a statement he "thinks" that I may have made at a martial arts seminar (I don't teach JKD) some 20 years ago? Can he prove it? He can't remember his own name. I have no agenda. I was participating in the conversation. It is not common that you get a Black Belt Hall of Famer on one of these forums. I didn't initiate the topic.And, I have made no attempt to hide my identity. As a published author I have written much about JKD. Go over every word I have written about JKD and you will find 99% objective and positive. I am a fan of Dan Inosanto. I am objective in my praise and criticism. | |
