I focus on techniques that move the opponent and create space. The theory being that if the practitioner is taken to court and told "The subject was knocked down and hit his head on the concrete and ___", that they can respond "I just wanted to run away; I used that technique so that I could get space to flee, and did not intend anything of the sort to happen to the attacker" and completely derail the entire 'intent' rail.

Those are good things to teach.

Best defense is the Miyaki-Danielsan toy drum.

Anyone have the toy drum or a pier with a swinging fish hook?

Start of using the fence technique developed by Geoff Thompson and then use a pre-emptive strike in the form of a right cross or a hook punch to the jaw, which are good for knocking out opponents or at the very least, knocking them down so you can escape the situation.

Locks do work in theory but they are very hard to apply in most cases, especially if you have allowed yourself to be attacked. Once that happens everything becomes spontaneous and you end up just striking in any way you can to stop the attack.

Each to their own. Some are more comfortable in the clinch so they can throw or choke opponents. It just depends on what area you are most confident in.

The best self defense techinique is the the one that effectively controls the situation. This could range from words to diffuse the situation, to a lethal blow with a weapon.

And as you said it could be words, or a nuke. Tim Walk is like a large Coach Buzzcut. "You wanna see a real man? KICK ME IN THE JIMMY!"

Personally I've always thought that locks are more effective if applied after a strike rather by itself.

But I was never successful at convincing my Aikido or Judo instructor on that theory.

Aikido guys tend to dislike the idea of hitting someone at all, I have respect for the art, but I have a harsher view towards people who perpetrate violence in the first place. I know it's always easier to lock my joints immediately after I've been hit in the face a few times.
