2A & RKBA TATTOOS

[BIZERKO666]

Just a couple

No comment on that per se but implies you're Jewish, and I thought Jews were discouraged, if not prohibited, from getting tattoos in honor and memory of those lost in the concentration camps.

I can't comment on their policies, but I do know the tragic story of Shani Louk.

Rule 303

Are you referencing the legal thing that comes up when you google "Rule 303" about permitted presumption of evidence or guilt in certain cases? Or is there a cultural reference I'm missing?

 

[rabid wombat]

Probably appropriate for me… not the general audience

 

[tark]

I thought Jews were discouraged, if not prohibited, from getting tattoos in honor and memory of those lost in the concentration camps.

Jewish people are kinda sorta prohibited from tattoos for any reason. Leviticus 19:28.

 

[mljdeckard]

Got my first a couple of months ago when I retired from the army.

 

[caribou]

I remember something along the lines of graven images and names being forbidden tatts, as you will never stop grieving if you do so.

Guns are worthy of tattoos. Like a culture.

My wifes chin Tatts are specifically Kuuvanmuit Inupiaq, "Beauty Marks", and the signof a capable woman.

My tatts are Musically motivated;

My forearm tatt is the lightening bolt from the AC/DC album "Highway to Hell", found between the AC and the DC.
I have had idjits ask if it was "The SS??!" I point out its a lightening bolt, not a rune and, after all, theres only one.......



My other tatt is a Cultural tatt I took one stab atta time laying in my bunk 52T in Goose Creek Prison. Cost me a picture I drew for 2 Top Ramen and the Ramen for the Tatt. Payed the shift guard a picture as well, and got it done in one go, 4 hours. I could have took the gun, but Hep A-Z is possible and I had already bought a good needle from a fellow inmate, so I knew it was clean.

Its an Anarchists A over my heart, as Im an Anarchist at Heart .......Sex Pistols style.......



You might, someday, find a Mosin Nagant tatt on me......someday.......LOL!

For the past 10-20 years I have avoided any indication of my interest in firearms to the public. Just on general principles.

Molon labe in Hebrew? No comment on that per se but implies you're Jewish, and I thought Jews were discouraged, if not prohibited, from getting tattoos in honor and memory of those lost in the concentration camps.

I could be wrong on this, so please advise.

For general interest, I was raised in a predominantly Jewish neighborhood in NYC and one of my childhood friends had an uncle who had his concentration camp number on his forearm. Somewhat fading away and a bit blurry, but the sight of it has kinda stuck with me all my life.

Terry:
Correct, Leviticus 19:28, “You shall not make gashes in your flesh for the dead, or incise any marks on yourselves.” As I'm not strictly observant I already have a number of tattoos (3 to be precise) There are actually tattoo parlors in Israel, not that it makes it "Kosher" to get them, but I'm kind of an anomaly in that one of my tattoos is a Star of David with a Crown of Thorns. (It would take too much time to explain) In short I'm a practicing Jew who has a relationship with Christ.

 

[Old Dog]

I have many, many Jewish friends -- and a couple Jewish family members -- who have tattoos. My understanding is that so long as the tattoos do not refer to a god, or God, Reformed Jewish leadership seems to be more permissive in their interpretation of the laws.

 

[mokin]

Most folks in the general public would not catch the 'Rule 303' reference.

I'd bet lunch that the majority on this board won't catch it without research.

A few years ago I geeked out with my computer printer, chronograph, loading press, and a highly buba'd No. 1 Mk. III.

No firearm related tatts though

 

[Frulk]

Don’t have any 2A tattoos. Saw a guy once with a pretty good sized Ruger emblem on his deltoid at a Texas flea market.

 

[jonnyc]

Not prohibited, but Jews generally discourage tats.
As a Hebrew speaker, I'm often amused by the poor spellings and translations on 'Hebrew' tats. I would recommend avoiding foreign languages...as then you will have few 'regerts'.

 

[230RN]

Thanks for the references in the Bible re tattoos.

"...Star of David with a Crown of Thorns..." I like the idea, but I wonder how they worked that out visually.

No thanks for the reminder about Shani Louk.

I am constantly being reminded of the self-righteously-powered inhumanity of humans to other humans throughout history... not just today.

And the horror of pack behavior in humans.

Triple post, sorry. My bad.

 

[Valkman]

I have ink on my shoulders and back, but nothing 2A related.

 

[Yamifrk]

No tats, but if I ever get one, it will be Wile E. Coyote, cause he's my hero.

I have Wile E Coyote on my calf. My Dad had the road runner…only seemed appropriate for me to have it. Always trying to take a short cut to get where he had already been. I miss him everyday.

I was in a gasthaus in Germany back in the ‘80s and was introduced to a guy with the numbers on his forearm. Quite sobering.

 

[usaral63]

While I generally deplore the practice I gotta admit to being more than impressed with some of the ARVN types that had "Sat Cong" in BIG letters on their backs!

 

[hso]

That got off topic right away.
