Haven’t spoken to him in years and don’t plan to ever again :::shudder::: since he tried to facilitate the death of my sister, but glad to hear of your solution.

Everyone has an opinion about tattoos, it seems. I guess that’s what this thread is for.

It saddens me to see them, can’t help it. I’m an artist and do understand (sort of) using your skin as canvas, or to make a statement. But it still makes me incredibly sad, especially on young women. So temporal, so cynical. So sub-culture.”:^(

I am very sorry to hear about your brother. That must have been a terrible thing for you & your family to have gone through.

As for tats. I tell anyone who asks me if they should get one to think long & hard before they get one. Make sure you can live with what you are inking on your body. Since it is common to get more after your first one you need to make sure all of them will look good together. I stuck to butterflies & flowers. However I've seen girls with tribal art, fairies & names. Not my cup of tea. But to each their own. I also try to tell girls to get them where they can show them if they wish & cover them for work etc. I think tats are here to stay. So many people have them now. More then you would think. Some women just have their little secret one & you would never know it is there. Dermablend is a good way to cover them. What bothers me is the fact so many people don't think long & hard before getting them. What you get at 18 may not be what you want at 30.

This thread is really about Judge Fine,a state district judge in Houston who granted a pretrial motion declaring the death penalty unconstitutional before it was derailed by bikers & tattoos. Judge Fine just happens to be all inked up.
