How ignorant. Where I live, there is tremendous cultural significance to the ink.

They are forms of self-expression. Since they shock and offend you, I suggest you have the problem, and a pretty serious one at that.

Please, do it for your country. You might be hated by Generation "Whatever", but later generations will consider you a hero.

Peace, out.
Allow another Californian to add praise and support for this wonderful idea.

I know dozens of people who are writing code, testing devices and software. Most of them have visible ink.

I lived in the area for two decades. I doubt you can say as much.
