This article seems to contain quite a bit of reflection and commentary. It also contains a lot of biased adjectives like "impatient", which could be replaced by more neutral words. As far as content is concerned, the reader is left with the impression that the Karate described herein is all that exists in the U.S.. Only brief mention is made of the Japanese instructors' presence in the U.S. and/or the ties to international governing bodies. For instance, Takayuki Mikami's JKA/AF association alone has quite a few associated clubs and dojos. Not to mention the other many clubs and dojos associated with international governing bodies. In fact, the article seems to say that there is no governance of American Karate. It seems to suggest that American karate practitioners are following black belts of dubious authenticity won with a "mean streak" in the ring. <span style="font-size: smaller;" class="autosigned">—Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[Special:Contributions/70.189.36.130|70.189.36.130]] ([[User talk:70.189.36.130|talk]]) 00:26, 18 August 2010 (UTC)</span><!-- Template:UnsignedIP --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot--> |
