Tattoos are a dead giveaway that the person they are attached to is crazy.

Really? I have had tattoos since 1981 when I got my first one as a United States Navy sailor, have been married for 20+ years (completely monogamously), and have 3 sane kids raised and out in the world. Have had our own business for the last 6 years. I build the best damned 1911 you ever laid hands on, do gunstock work that would make you sick with envy. Neither my wife nor I have ever been arrested, committed or threatened with either. We earn our own way in the world, ask nothing from anyone and both have tattoos. Multiple tattoos.
My very sane Father (USN Ret., now deceased) had tatts. Oldest brother (USN Ret.) has tatts. I could go on, but won’t. Don’t need to. I am living proof that you are wrong.

I’m sure to know all the crazy people that keep you safe from the rest of the planet’s human garbage will appreciate your thoughts.

Perhaps you could just spit on them while you’re at it. Like a good lib would. The fact that many freepers are also inked may also be lost on you so what does it say about you hanging out with all these crazies?

No, your aversion to tattoos is a dead give away that you do not know what you are talking about.

I guess you have never been in the military. I retired from the Marine Corps and tattoos have been part of the Corps since the late 1800s. We've had Commandants that had tattoos. The issue was where the tattoos were. For instance, officers were not allowed to have tattoos that showed if wearing a T-shirt.

I got my tattoo in 1983. It is the standard WWII "USMC" tattoo on my left shoulder. I thought about getting one for seven years before I got it and I still like it. When my commanding officer saw it, he gave me a "ration of shit" and then showed me his bull dog (also on his left shoulder).

My personal belief is that the tattoo should have meaning. And before you get a tattoo, you should think about it for a year. If the design and location hasn't changed in that year, then you are probably going to like it.

Another crazy person with ink.....why I'm so crazy I have the fallen warrior (kneeling Marine, planted barrel, boots, and dog tags) tattooed on my arm. What nut ball would want to prove they are crazy by displaying such remembrance of the better than 40 fallen warriors?

Absolutely certifiable that I have a portion of the prayer I say every time leaving the wire tattooed as well. Completely insane I'd want those words inscribed on my flesh as a constant reminder of God's protection and forgiveness.

I don’t know if they’re crazy but they certainly can’t take a joke. And where did the tattoo comment come from anyway?

I don’t have tats, but your statement is too generic to be correct I’m sorry
