Yup. It's also important to note what's "prohibited". This isn't a tattoo of "Mom" and a heart, or maybe your kid's name on your upper arm.

It's tats above the neck and past the wrists - which, though my knowledge is *very* old, used to be illegal to perform in at least several states. (Tattoos on the genitalia are also illegal, but that's not germaine to this particular discussion. :-) )

IMO, and I'm just talking here, I'd guess that mostly it's to disqualify people with gang tattoos. That's just a shot in the dark, but I don't think it's a stretch.
