or at least that's what rorion says:

"When you really understand jiu-jitsu, there's no need to get into fights. That's what I think. A person with self-confidence, a person with character, will try to challenge him or herself on a different stage [rather than fighting] and will be a kind and friendly person. Such people know the techniques of self-control.* For example, there are really bad places to be. When walking alone in such a scary place, where one might need twenty police officers for protection, you can walk alone in a carefree way [thanks to jiu-jitsu]. Jiu-jitsu gives you the power equal to twenty police officers. Jiu-jitsu should not be used for violence. Jiu-jitsu is a thing that gives you the ability to defend yourself, while at the same time leading the way to peace. That's real jiu-jitsu."

--ha ha ha ha!

I don't agree with his statement about walking carefree in an area where you would need 20 man protection. In that case, one would hope that your training would make you smart enough to avoid such an area.

Ummm... I wouldn't even go in an area where I would need the protection of ONE police officer!!
