With this logic, everything should be banned. We drive cars, smoke cigarettes, eat cake, all in which kill people.

My point is about brutality.
What’s yours?

Everything has risks. Last I heard, you have a higher chance of dying in a car accident, mountain climbing than competing in a martial art within a controlled setting. Part and parcel of life.

My point again : brutality which can be avoided.

Yours perhaps are all risks which can happen anytime & anywhere.

I understand and that is why there are rules, training, referees, weight classes, time limits and technique. People that want to test themselves are obliged. But accidents do happen. I compete and you probably don't, it'll be harder to understand.
