The Issue is this...
"...There is never any mention as to WHY this ban was approved. It is assumed that it was originally a health concern. In the 1960's nearly all states banned tattooing after a hepatitis outbreak was blamed on a dirty tattoo parlor in New York. By the 1980's those prohibitions had all vanished, except in S. Carolina and Oklahoma. It is ridiculous to think that you can pierce any imaginable body part and ride your motorcycle without a he lmet but you cannot adorn yourself with a tattoo in S. Carolina...."

I am for keeping this ban on tattooing in South Carolina. I plan on writing my reps and reiterating the need for it. Tattooing is a pagan, heathen practice. I wish to preserve a Christian-as-possible culture.
