What can I do to be more likely to defend myself when violence is the only way?

I have been involved in different martial arts over such as Gracie Jiu Jitsu, Taekwondo, Boxing, and Sanshou. I have recently been looking into Judo and I visited a school that said Judo on the front window and took a look inside. There was a Taekwondo class going on and it was nothing I have ever seen before. There were about 15 adults and 20 kids and they were jumping up and down kicking bags. Then when I sat down they went into different groups. The adults split up into two teams of 7 with one keeping score. They put up throwing mats and used them as goals and striking pads as items to hit a ball with. I talked with the instructor if he had a Judo class and he said he only took serious student and I told him that I had been training. He said he didn’t like students coming from other schools and he only trained his own. He also said that I might be interested in his combat fighting MMA thing. My question is why did he put Judo on his door, what does that game have to do with Taekwondo, and why did he not want me coming into his school.

It seems like the usefulness of martial arts has been limited with the invention of gun powder. Should martial arts start incorporating firearms training to keep up with the times? Why or why not?

I am thinking of starting martial arts training. The discipline i would like to learn is Muay Thai. However, i have quite a number of piercings on my face. (Mainly my ears but also i have an anti brow piercing) and a navel piercing. I realise i cannot train with them in as it could be dangerous but i also don’t want to lose them and i know especially with surface piercings they will heal very quickly. Could i perhaps where a retainer or is that still dangerous? Does anyone have any ideas.
i only ask as i once took my navel piercing out for an hour and it was very painful to put back in as the piercing had partially closed.
