I would just like to say how impressed I am by Ninjas.

Ninja is an art form that should be taught to those who need to kick other people’s asses – i.e. School Teachers and Nuns.

I wish I knew Ninja, but I simply don’t have the dedication to endure the arduous training that Ninja’s certainly need to meet the rather high expectations of the order

You know what a cool battle would be??? I think Ninja’s vs Pirates.

I like Pirates as well, but not quite as much as Ninja’s.

If the battle was in Japan, or just on the street or something, I don’t think the Pirates would stand a chance against the Ninjas… the Ninjas could just hide behind a tree or something like that, and then when a Pirate walks past, he could just secretly shuroken his wooden legged ass.

If that battle was on the high seas of the Caribbean though, now that is a different story. The Ninjas would have to stow away on the Pirate ship, and it would take all their stealth training to hide in the cracks and the various barrels that are undoubtedly on board a pirate ship. I know ninjas have boats, but they are not really designed for the high seas.

Theoretically, the Ninjas could take all the pirates out by stealth – as that is their way. But there isn’t really any honour in that, and we all know Ninjas are honourable. Their culture stems directly from the Samurai, who were really honourable dudes. Well, there were the Ronan – the mercenary samurai, and there could be some little ninja communities stemming from them… I am sure they would take the pirates out by stealth, but I don’t like those Ninjas – I like the honourable ones.

They would climb out of whatever little crack they are hiding in, and engage in Battle… No matter how stealth and nimble the Ninjas are, I think the Pirates would be a tough battle for the Ninjas. I think there can be no arguments that the Ninjas would come out on top… but I think if a pirate got hold of a Ninja (which isn’t bloody likely, cause Ninjas can jump like 10 stories high) that the Ninja would be finished, cause they pirates have no mercy, and they would just kill them with their hook or something.

I think that Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles totally ruined the perception of Ninjas. The Turtles could do ninja and use ninja weapons and stuff like that, and I am sure in his day, Splinter sure knew what he was doin… but do you see Leonardo or Raphael hiding in cracks in walls and stuff like that? I think not. Krang and Shredders foot soldiers reminded me more of Ninjas, cause they would just pop out from behind boxes and that kind of stuff… but they would be like the dishonourable Ronan ninjas.

Ninja needs to be spread around more. Instead of joining scouts or the cadets, I think we should teach our kids the art of Ninja. They learn a hell of a lot of respect, even to the point where they would castrate themselves for you. I think we could eradicate crime… the kids would be all honourable, and not big fans of crime, and the ones that are fans of crime, well, we would have a ready made force of Ninjas to deal with them.

You would have to keep an eye on the Ninja masters though – everyone knows power corrupts, and the thought of these Ninja overloads commanding respect from our youth is somewhat daunting… refer to TMNT the movie… I forget that hard core bald guys name, but he was a Ninja overlord, and he was not using his powers for good! He was manipulating young and naïve ninjas into doing his bidding.

I am sure there would be sufficient honourable Ninja overlords… obviously equipped and ready to deal with these insolent violators of the Ninja code… but could we ensure our safety?

I would feel safe in a society full of Ninja’s… I know this... cause Ninjas are honourable, and I am honourable, and if any of the Rogue Ninjas didn’t like me, I am sure the honourable Ninjas would protect me!!!!

What do you think?
