Has anyone else noticed that tattoos were once a sign of macho? They are no longer.
Tattoos, thirty years ago, were worn mostly by sailors, Marines and occasionally professional soldiers. Ex-cons also had tattoos, cheap ones created with ball point pen blue and easily distinguished. The tattoo was usually associated with manliness, bravery and macho.
Today, tattoos are mostly associated with young, defiant, pro-Lefties....the Che Guevara look. Since I consider Lefties to be mostly pacifists, wimps un-patriotic and never willing to serve their country in anyway...I notice that tattoos have migrated from macho to coward in a mere 30 years.
Am I wrong? Do you know some young tattooed people who joined the military, police or rural fire department?

Some people do not understand what I say here. Of course the military continues to get tattoos as brothers at arms.
But peaceniks and anti-everything Lefties do too. A migration to cowardice does not mean the original group has abandoned their use. The message is always different.
