Want a Tat? Time to reflect…
Nothing says class like Hello Kitty |
Gentle Readers,
Dr. J. woke up Sunday Morning to this piece on Fox and Friends.
Washington D.C. who has had a fairly unregulated tattoo industry felt the need to catch up with the times and develop the most strict tattoo regulations evah!!!El@vnenty!!1!!
Fatty, the artist interviewed is a great spokesperson for the industry. While tattoo artists have a different look, all of the ones that Dr. J. knows (and he knows quite a few, here in New Atlantis, as Atlantean Tattoos confer eldrich powers), are, to a one, intelligent and articulate folk. And he concedes that sensible regulations are appropriate, but going from 0 to 100 is a tad insane.
Furthermore, regulations that would effectively shut down the industry is not good for the business owners, nor is it D.C. who his evolving into a one industry town.
One question not posed by the interviewer, or interviewee…a question arrived at by both Dr. J. and our friends here at LifeNews at the same time (synchronicity and all)…why a 24 hour waiting period for something as harmless as a tattoo, but no 24 hour waiting period when deciding to kill your child in the womb.
One clearly has a worse downside than the other…
