Tattooing children

Only problem with that is that declaring marijuana illegal is a racist....

But it is illegal--how do you define criminal?

and second--how is it racist?

Well for that matter, anyone who has ever driven over the speed limit is part of the criminal element. Really makes the whole "criminal element" thing kinda silly, eh?

More goes in to distribution and sale of illegal substances than pushing the pedal a little harder than one ought.

Really doesn't matter. It's illegal. Thus, all people who have ever sped are criminals. They probably all have tattoos too.
 
I take it you never saw the movie...

Apparently not. (but I was teasing even though I didn't get the reference;))

You can be you own injured party.
No, you can't.

You should post that history to make your argument.
For the one or two who have never heard of Harry Anslinger and the Federal Bureau of Narcotics, here are a few of his choice remarks in pursuit of laws banning marijuana:

"There are 100,000 total marijuana smokers in the US, and most are Negroes, Hispanics, Filipinos, and entertainers. Their Satanic music, jazz, and swing, result from marijuana use. This marijuana causes white women to seek sexual relations with Negroes, entertainers, and any others."

"...the primary reason to outlaw marijuana is its effect on the degenerate races."

"Reefer makes darkies think they're as good as white men."
 
No, you can't.

Yes, you can:

All you're saying is that minorities like to abuse themselves more than majorities like to abuse themselves.

Show how these laws deliberately targeted minorities as oposed to the behavior, and further show that any such targeting was malicious.

Links and quotes please. I will disregard your own conclusions and opinions unless you are simply agreeing with the conclusion of a quoted and linked credible study.

Criminal means one commits real crime...where there's an actual injured party.


You should study the history of drug laws in this country.

oh, please, great one, enlighten those of us who are so ignorant of the history of drugs in this country....
If there is ANY drug that crosses all racial divides, it is pot...
 
That made me LOL



So, you think it's wrong to permanently, physically alter a child's body without their consent?

I sure as h e l l do not think it is right...
However, I am speaking of tattooing or branding , not any necessary ,IMO,surgical procedure...

A necessary procedure is one thing. No one is arguing that.

We're talking about wholly unnecessary, permanent, physical alterations to a child without their consent.
 
Should parents be allowed to tattoo their own children - for any reason?

No.I am also against piercings.Any cosmetic modifications on a minor should be prohibited.Sure there are some exception like to repair a birth defect or deformity like a cleft palate,skin tag or some other birth defect or deformity. Another exception with be deformity caused by a accident or disease. I believe in parents rights but they shouldn't include making cosmetic modifications to a child's body such as tattoos,piercings or something similar when it is not needed.

What if it's for religious reasons?

Nope. Its one thing to make your child go to attend religious school,sunday school on sundays or vacation bible school during the summer and it is another to add a physical modification to a child's body that the child can not change(until that child can afford tattoo removal surgery) against their will when it is not necessary.
 
An actual medical reason? Or just a hypothetical one that could maybe possibly happen at some undetermined point in the future?

I cannot think of a single health condition that can be treated with a tattoo!

Naturally agree wholeheartedly

I think the Hindu's do this...an attempt to forever brand their children as the same religion...
If the parents really loved their children, tattoos would be unthinkable.
Nor should they tattoo themselves as so-called adults - for this I am branded as a bigot.....
