If you're ever involved in a physical altercation self defense situation and it goes to court, don't tell them or let them know in any way, shape, or form if you've got any background in the martial arts. It will probably work against you in court.
 
I think they'll probably find out since I wear my gi 24/7 everywhere I go. Just so people know not to mess with me. But I'll consider Photonguy's sage advice. Next thing you know he's start saying its a bad idea for me to brandish my sai in the courtroom.

Is that a considered statement from a qualified legal professional?

If you are in a self defence situation and you utilise your martial art skills, as long as you haven't stepped over the line between self defence and retaliation you shouldn't have any problem at all. You are entitled to use reasonable force to defend yourself.

If you are involved in a physical confrontation that is not involved in self defence you only have yourself to blame.

Brandishing sai at your own backyard barbecue might be fair game. :D

Better not tell Facebook, either. :)

Unless they have a good lawyer.

True, but there is debate as to what is "reasonable force."
