    where do navy seals and other special ops fall on the scale of "stealthy violence"?

    does that not count just because of the guns and gear, or is it ok?

    obviously the implications to this topic posed by the answers to such questions are massive.

    Humans are different from animals. We must die for a reason. Now is the time for us to regulate ourselves and reclaim our dignity. The one who holds endless potential and displays his strength and kindness to the world. Only mankind has God, a power that allows us to go above and beyond what we are now, a God that we call "possibility".

    Jack Bauer sneaked onto a plane by wearing a hoodie. 'Nuff said.

    Well it's hard to compare sniper rifles to shurikens or whatever ninjas like to throw. It should be valid if you're only talking about "stealthy violence."

    Well yeah bujinkan is a genuine ninjutsu school, but you might get lucky and find other schools that are good too, there is 1 school here in amsterdam that is also geniune and my former sensei was also genuine, no flashy gymnastics ( heck im not that good at flips even though i can do em), but mostly weapons training and throws/techs/breaks.

    Ninjutsu is just another form of martial arts taught at the regular community centre here in Singapore. It's not what you imagine though, nothing to do with chakra, kunai, or even shurikens. Just basic moves and such, but they have a black gi which looks pretty cool. All in all, it's just another form of money making for the people conducting the course. But I understand that there is still at least one living ninja in Japan, but even his clan is non existing now and he basically earns a living by being the last ninja and getting paid to be on documentaries.

    lol that "Ninja Training Camp" is Team Ryouko, you can obviously tell at the end of the clip. [notice you'd see www.teamryouko.com]. Team Ryouko is a "Tricking Team" where they mix a large variety of martial arts, gymnastics, freerunning and break dancing. Team Ryouko is from Tdot[Toronto], Ontario Canada.

    There is also EMC Monkey's which is in... I don't know lol, somewhere in the states. They do the same thing as Team Ryouko, they are another Tricking Team. Except with EMC[Evolved Monkey Combat] they focus more on freerunning and martial arts. The founders Xin Sarith and Jae Phan have used all their martials arts that they knew and have basicly 'combined' it into one.

    Yeah, it's for show. But it will still hurt like a bLitch, they train their leg muscles and train in martial arts. It's not just fancy kicks and what not. Either way, it still looks pretty awsome at the end of the day.
