Already looks stupid. Most do.

In this case, it’s like others said…looks like she dipped her chin in liquid or has something coming out the mouth.

Yes, dumb. Sorry, culture nor age don’t make it better.

Very attractive lady who is obviously proud of her Maori heritage. I’m not in favor of the tattoo but I’m certainly not going to condemn her for it either.

You never watched the "Hell on Wheels" tv series I take it...or heard of Olive Oatman. For indigenous people, it's part of their culture.

There is one part of the body I’ve never seen tattooed - the nose.

I wonder why?

I am impressed by the traditional microphone, amplifiers and speaker stack.

Is it a tattoo or just paint?

Well she should go fully indigenous, like this fellow tribal member, if she really wanted to make a cultural statement.

People forget what this country, and other countries did to their indigenous people, not to mention the British who outlawed Scottish clan tartans, and forbid the Welsh to speak their language. Native Americans here were sent to re-education schools like Carlisle Barracks in Carlisle, Pennsylvania. They were forced to give up their Indian ways, made to wear American-style clothing, cut their hair off, couldn’t speak their language, had to change their name. Same thing happened to the indigenous people of Australia, New Zealand and others. As a student of history, if this woman wants to wear the symbols of her heritage, I have no problem with it. We are in a culture struggle today, with evil that wants to take away everything we love, our way of life, our God-given rights. People obviously can’t see the similarities with what this government did to people in the past, to what the government is doing to Conservatives today. They can’t see past the tattoo on this woman’s chin.

Leviticus 19:28

New King James Version
You shall not make any cuttings in your flesh for the dead, nor tattoo any marks on you: I am the LORD.

King James Bible
Ye shall not make any cuttings in your flesh for the dead, nor print any marks upon you: I am the LORD.

New International Version
“’Do not cut your bodies for the dead or put tattoo marks on yourselves. I am the LORD.

Before all you naysayers jump in with “that’s the OLD testament” for THEN not for now.

and

“that was just for the JEWS:

Was “though shalt not kill/murder just for then and just for the Jews?

Jesus speaks

““Do not think that I have come to abolish the Law or the Prophets; I have not come to abolish them but to fulfill them. For truly I tell you, until heaven and earth disappear, not the smallest letter, not the least stroke of a pen, will by any means disappear from the Law until everything is accomplished.”

Matthew 5:17-18 NIV

"Funny the rest of her look is so modern without a hint of ethnic hair or dress."

Do you even know what the traditional hairstyle is for her ethnic/culteral group? Do you expect all American Indians to wear long braided hair, embellished with feathers and beads, dress in deerskin, and moccasins, and carry a tomahawk around with them? That's basically what your comment implies.

"Imagine what this pretty lady’s face is going to look like in 20 years."

It's her culture, and her face. You won't even remember who she is in 20 years, or what she looked like.

Do you think those tribal rituals might have been around long before they even heard of what a bible is?

My wife said that the picture reminded her of myself in a Mexican Restaurant with the usual dribble.

“It’s her culture, and her face. You won’t even remember who she is in 20 years, or what she looked like.”

____________

I don’t care what she looks like now or in 20 years. I said, imagine what she’s going to look like in 20 years. Can’t you read?

I don’t care what you look like now or in 20 years. But I’ll bet you’re butt ugly with a confrontational attitude like yours.

I guess the circle I run in is not that avant guarde. I have to expand my horizons.
