RFC: Nazi tattoos on BME?
For whatever reason I've been getting a lot more Nazi and white power skin-themed tattoo submissions than usual this week. Below are a few that have been sent in over the last couple days (although I think some of them are ripped off from various online neo-nazi forums).
Now, I have no intention of changing the rules for
IAM which exclude this sort of thing, so this question is exclusively for the galleries on the
main site. The question is:
Should I include pictures like these in the tattoo galleries, and if so, should they be sorted separately or included in the main sets? After all BME does include
other things that I (and most people) don't politically agree with.
Nazi tattoos? What do you think? (tons)

Yes, I think you should share them. I tattoo and I do some Nazi symbols as well as American Indian and other racialist tattoos. I see nothing wrong with them as they are simply an expression of peoples beliefs. Thank you.
I dont think you should share them due to the fact that you would be contributing to these choices that others are making. Think about it, if a customer wanted “dumb n*gger” tattooed on him/her/black/white, it is still an inexcusable statement. Oh and doing a tattoo of a American Indian symbols are anything BUT racial. Those symbols (as well as other national symbols) are symbols of ethnography, not race.
fuck
that
shit
no way!
PS: hey, when did you start running BME/ IAM again?
they are lovely tattoos :)
I think they should be allowed.
They shoul defenately be shared it’s a rare and great thing when people want to show love, respect and pride for their race.
they should be allowed it gets me soo piss that blacks can wear shirts that say proud to be black and no one will say a thing but if a white person wears pround to be white everyone thinks he races
