Our country has seen a significant rise in crime since Joe Biden opened the US borders to unchecked immigration. Among types of crimes that have had a dramatic rise in frequency are fights, attacks, and murders involving the machete. This is mainly because most of the countries that illegal aliens are pouring over our border from have dense populations of people who work in agriculture where the machete is the most common tool used for cutting, harvesting, and pruning various crops and vegetation. It is one of the most affordable, accessible, and practical agricultural tools in the world. But the machete is more than just an agricultural implement, it is a weapon with a rich history but capable of causing a dark future for those on the wrong side of its edge. In our world today we are seeing the rise in attacks because we are exposed to a different way of life, a different way of settling differences, and a different way of how other cultures view life…and death.
Please enjoy this incredibly interesting hour with host Brian O'Shea and Special Guest Alex Rivera. Alex is the founder of Dominikhan Academy, a martial arts academy which specializes and focuses on the martial art of machete as well as practical combat applications of this versatile and amazing weapon. You will learn the history of the machete as well as the history around the people who are considered the most skilled in its use: the people of the Dominican Republic. You will also get to learn from Mr. Rivera as he takes our host through footage of actual (and recent) machete fights as he analyzes each aspect of these fights with his expert eye. Finally, you will get a sneak peek at Mr. Rivera's new training offering which will show you the basic Dominican-style fighting stance, advances, and retreats, and, of course, slashing. Machete is more than just a melee weapon, if it is in the right hands (like Mr. Rivera's) it is a beautiful martial art and a deadly one. But having more knowledge of this art and its history will give you an appreciation for the machete and will also give you a realistic idea of how to deal with a machete attack or a machete challenge fight. Many may think the odds of them getting attacked by a machete wielding attacker are small…but wouldn't you rather have the knowledge and not need it than the other way around. Trust us…whether you are interested in martial arts or self-defense does not matter. In this episode you will learn something new and may even gain new respect for an object you once passed by at your local hardware store. Join Brian O'Shea and Special Guest Alex Rivera for this engrossing and interesting conversation full of history, real life combat examples, and practical application of the machete.
After this episode we hope you will learn the golden rule according to those who have lived through or witnessed this type of quite common combat: Never bring a knife to a machete fight!
