There are some stupid youths out there who get them and they are not even in gangs but down the line learn it wasnt so cool after all.
There are worse things we waste tax payer monies on and if that can help someone blend in and get a JOB I'm OK with it too.
But the regular buttheads don't get free tatoo removal. Only the ultra-stupid gang-bangers get zapped for free. I mean, they obviously deserve it and your run-of-the-mill tatoo freak is outta luck.
