One of the most common criminal prison tattoos is the teardrop underneath the eye. The most widely accepted meaning of the teardrop is the wearer has killed someone — this is reported to have originated among the Chicano gangs of California. The teardrop can also mean that the wearer has served a long prison sentence, or is mourning the loss of a family member. A clear teardrop, like the one pictured, can mean that the wearer has committed an attempted murder, or alternatively, that a close friend was killed and the wearer is seeking revenge.

Facile est descendens ad inferos, nocte et die portas mortis caligine longe steterunt: et ascendit iterum gressus revocare sub auras - et ibi est fricare, munus. - It is easy to go down into Hell; night and day, the gates of dark Death stand wide; but to climb back again, to retrace one's steps to the upper air - there's the rub, the task.

- Virgil

I have heard this before and I have seen people with this tat.

Why on earth would someone want to advertise this?
