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.
