While training I have come across many different types of people involved in martial arts, from all parts of the spectrum. This has lead me to wonder, what if a personality was unsuitable to the arts? Say if they were aggressive, arrogant, had anger issues, were predatory sexually with other students and were known to assault people etc, is it ethical to teach them to hurt, maim and kill? Or even to expose your other students to them and destroy the safe environment?
Sometimes I think people should be given a background check and personality test before training in an art, but is this to intrusive and exclusive? I've heard some horror stories of out of control martial artists.
Thoughts?
