Hitler Portrait Tattoo

My friend Joseph who tattoos at Visual Orgasm in Singapore got me wondering… Is this like the equivalent of someone getting an Attila the Hun tattoo just because you know he’s a bad ass or something? I really wonder what the meaning is in the context of Singapore…

After all, people get plenty of evil characters from fiction tattooed on them because it appeals to them on some level, even though they’re not endorsing the evil actions or anything… Is this different somehow because it strikes a more real and current nerve? I don’t know. That said, I can say with 100% certainty that I would never personally get a Hitler tattoo!!!!

    having given this some thought, it’s freedom of choice at to what he has tattooed on his body. The fact that he’s chosen the father of a facist reigime i find quite ironic. it IS a well assembled peice although it’s his choice. it beats any standard tribal ‘stamp’ in my opinion.

    THe person above me is just being an ignorant pig.

    But whatever you may think of hitler and all his evil doings, its this persons body. If they wish to have completely negative shit like that on them, so be it. Each to their own.

    And just to save the ass of the tattooist who did it.
    In reality, (i’ve had this convo with my tattoist before) if someone asks for an offensive tattoo, and the artist denys them on moral grounds, there just gonna go up the road to the next shop and get it done there. So the artist is in no way at fault, I mean, The wearer is the one who’se gonna potentially get a bash for boasting hitler on his body, not the guy who put it on him.

    you idiots are so ignorant it’s not even funny. Hitler was doing the world a favor by killing those jews. Nobody else wanted them…he gave the US and Europe a chance to take them and they refused. All the while they continued to fester in his country. I’m glad he killed them, if only he would have killed them all. Sieg heil.

    look, if this guy likes hitler, and agrees with hitler then okay cool rock out, do whatever you want. but if he starts to do what hitler did , then obviously it isn’t cool. but until then he’s just a fan of hitler. freedom of speech, no matter how offensive, is cool with me.

    Well, to the 14/88 crowd – 1) Hitler was Austrian, not German – and before he was lusting after his cousin he was learning public speaking from a Jewish Stage Magician so he wouldn’t continue to be MADE OF FAIL when he tried to give future speeches. Also? He sucked. Sorry to break that to you.

    Otherwise – I wonder if this fellow (woman?) in Singapore has any idea how their ink will look as a future lampshade? Hmmm.

    great piece, really cool job.
    not my taste though, but everyone has his own fetish.
    getting a tat like that deserves BIG fucking balls,
    i bet that guy got beat up once or twice after that piece got shown,
    i’m not gonna get into political stuff, everyone to it’s own
    imagine what it’s like when you’re 70 with hitler hanging on your body
    quite a sight, eh?

    I think all of you left wing phenatics should really grow a pair and quit crying about something that isnt on your body. Obviously this guy isn’t the smartest for even getting such a degrading tattoo for his owncharacter, But who are any of you to state anything negative. That honestly makes you lower then the person you are trying to degrade. Why belittle yourselves. People shouldn’t judge. Honestly it’s none of your g*d D#mn business and people who mind their own live longer…. think about it. … the tattoo is clean and great job on detail.

    and P.S to the guy who says he’s german? wtf does that have to do with Hitler? you realise he was jewish right? he hated his own people because of the way they treated him as a child? The germans were just the ones who inpowered him. So your ignorance amazes me. As for the cause of people in the south being proud to wear such tats. Racism is a disease. One that is spread by lack of education.
