Dear America,

Please get over your freakish obsession with human graffiti. Tattoos are trashy, ugly, and unhealthy. Especially on women.

It doesn't have to be this way. New York didn't legalize tattoo shops until 1997. They were banned once, they should be banned again.

Peace, out.

Nothing wrong with tats, but I do think they are getting a little ridiculous. Everyone acts like they are so original.... getting the same lame tats as everyone else

Just another symptom of a follow the leader society that America continues to become

As a woman who has a full sleeve and is working on a back piece, I kindly tell you to quit interfering with my personal choices. I love my tattoos, they are all original pieces drawn by my sister and I am not trashy, or ugly.

As for being unhealthy, that's patently untrue. If you go to some hole in the wall to get a tattoo, that's your problem. My tattoo parlor looks like a doctors office and is much cleaner.

I'm starting to agree. People really kill themselves wtih tatoos in visible areas when it comes to employment opportunities unless you work for yourself.........then they have to pay big bucks when they want it removed. I think I read somewhere 7 out of 10 people regret getting their tattoos as they got older

Well, it's been a 'fad' for thousands of years, but yeah, maybe one day it will go away

They should be banned because tattooing has become an act of aggression, a visual assault on public decency, a form of pollution in fact. We ban certain forms of pollution. We can ban tattoo parlors again.
