Do you know of a news story or law that just stinks of socialism or misguided good intentions? Drop us a line and let us know about it!

Dear Debbie,

It's just so fascinating and all to hear of your tattoo. However, none of us here gives a fudge, so kindly keep your trap shut.

Sincerely,

FYI: the U.S. Supreme Court turned down this case last month.

TAT BUMP

As the proud bearer of a well-considered (and, BTW, visible only when shirtless) tattoo administered gratis by a good bud of mine, I want to know, what exactly are these biblical mandates against tattoos? Where is it "spelled out very vividly in the Bible that tattooing is taboo"? (Bwaha-- ain't it also spelled out very vividly in the Bible that drinking alcohol is a mortal sin? /cheeked tongue)

There are ways to get laws overturned, repealed, or rewritten; none of those ways should involve the judicial system.

Next on the books- a law prohibiting misuse of apostrophes!

Is tatooing illegal in SC? So glad to hear it, but it doesn't seem to inhibit what I like to call the inverse ration of tatoos to teeth I have observed among SC natives...(the more tatoos, the fewer teeth)...

I'd like to know of a way to invest in tatoo removal. There are going to be some serious, painful and expensive regrets that I could turn into an investment profit if I just knew how to go about it.

Well, there goes the neighborhood.

I heard of some law sponsored from that AZ Senator- something about reforming campaigns and speech and oh well, let's not go there.(/sarcasm)

Comments, Miss Bella?

I've been to Myrtle Beach several times and I'm pretty sure I've seen open tattoo parlors right on the strip. I could be wrong, but that's my recollection.

Knotts has said. "I am opposed to it and it ain't gonna pass. I'll do whatever I got to do to stop it. "

Thank you, again, Senator Knotts.

This gentleman has made positive contributions to SC in many ways.

"It is unlawful for a person to tattoo any part of the body of another person."

Well, that settles it then. If you want a tattoo, do it yourself!

If you are reading this and living in S. Carolina

I am reading this and I live in South Carolina. I will immediately contact my senator, Jake Knotts, and tell him to hold the line.

By the way, somebody tell this bimbo that here in the "Land of the Free" nobody wishes to "prohibit self expression on her very own body." She is free to go anywhere outside South Carolina and express till her heart's content. We won't even hold it against her.

It's a state issue, but I with SC the best of luck in repealing this law.

[Dan from Michigan]

It's a state issue, but I wish SC the best of luck in repealing this law.

You gotta be kidding me!

Look on the bright side, while you may not get a tattoo in your state, you can get an abortion.

He contested that tattooing is an art form and should be protected by the First Amendment.

The First Ammendment was designed to protect political speech not art.
