There's a line when it comes to tattoos. Face, neck and hands I feel like cross that line

The person usually tells you more with body language than their tattoos do. Face tattoos are exclusively on people with serious emotional problems, however, and I avoid them like leprosy.

It depends a lot on the tattoos though. Some tattoos show forethought and patience. Other tattoos show poor decision making. It really just depends.

I love shitty tattoos.

Not on myself, mind you.

We once spend nearly an hour going through the tattoos on tattoo shop (in a nearby town popular with bikers) Facebook page.

Every single one looked like it had been done in prison by somebody who had never done one before, and indeed had never drawn anything before.

I thought that was a double amputee for a second.

If I had tatoos that ugly I would seriously consider becoming one.

Yeah, I was thinking the same. It's basically a visible representation of somebody's thought process. It may indicate something important to them, something they're passionate about, or just a point decision without due consideration for consequences.

People get tattoos that are extremely artistic and represent a significant investment in both time and money. Many get tattoos about something they have a passion for. Some to honor deceased loved ones. Some to represent their culture.

Others get a facial tat with prison symbols or to make themselves look like a lizard/devil, which I can only describe as a "look-at-me" tattoo. That may not be the type of personality you want working for you or even to hang out with.

Others it's a "hey we were drinking and just got this cool new tattoo gun" or "I wanted ink but didn't bother to research local artists or pay for someone that does good work or can spell" ...

What to you mean, "you people"

According to the Trump administration, the entire population within a specific range of millennials are gang members to the last.

OG Boomers and Silents are gang members, but they're called lodges and esoteric societies, sometimes churches for tax reasons.

Remember that the primary efforts of Black Panthers and Hezbollah are community support (often cooperating with NGOs like Red Cross and Doctors Without Borders), we can expect that other terrorist organizations are similarly extremist.
