Martial arts classes

Looks like the (largely) undeclared war is heating up all over the place, what are you doing to get ready ?
Many locales make it difficult or even impossible to carry ANY implements of self-defense, which leaves martial arts as the only logical choice.
Master Splinter would approve.
Which one's you favorite ?

I'm a kick boxing guy myself, and I enjoy mostly asian martial arts and have taken them most of my life. I have 0 ground game though, I should take BJJ, wrestling or something.

Other life maybe. Was considering it maybe a decade ago, but after looking into it online to see what's around here, kind of eventually realized that time and money are a bit difficult to have enough of at the same time. And now, not so sure the energy would be there either. Were I still 15 or 20 years younger, something that includes the weapons training would have been preferable.

Lucky for me that isn't the case.

People would probably look at me like I'm insane -- unless something drastic suddenly happened and everyone was carrying something -- but I locally I could legally open carry a sword just fine. It's only illegal if you're concealing a blade over 3".

I used to be strong and have good balance from skateboarding, but these days I am weak due to some physical problems outside of my control. I don't own a gun either. Basically I am just not afraid to die, but hopefully when my time comes the pain will be brief.
