I got a bit sidetracked yesterday from my original thoughts...
We went to Kalamunda Wet n Wild on the weekend and coz its shirts off everywhere you tend to see a lot of body art going on. Now in the kiddies wading pool lay a big blokey bloke (about 40) with full on beard and performance car cap on. His back was a giant tattoo of two flaming skulls wearing those pointy speared german war helmets with a swastika in the flames and in between the skulls was a giant swastika and embedded within that was that other german cross symbol.
now he was laughing and chatting with his other half whilst his baby was in the pool, now its fairly obvious what this guy's agenda is but was this tattoo something he did when he was "young and stupid" and now he doesnt have much choice in the matter or is he still a neo-nazi and will be teaching his kids those ideals?
Its a pretty powerful image to flaunt around the place and frankly I didn't care much to see it but the funny thing is if he was wearing a rashy I never would have known or even thought of it.

I agree thats a pretty strong, direct and offensive message, a little outside the norm for tatts i think.
I wonder how he'd go with something a little closer to home regarding native australians? Might not have lived to see 40
