Quick question. Did you know that tattooing is illegal in the state of Oklahoma. No really, I'm serious. There are obviously people with tattoos in the state, so I guess having one isn't illegal. The state legislature just passed a bill that would legalize it. Apparently because, similar to back alley abortions with a coat hanger, people are going to unregulated artists that might be reusing needles and other stuff, possibly spreading HIV and hepatitis. You can read about it all here.Now back to your regularly scheduled program.

you couldn't in SC until a couple of years ago. in high school i had friends who drove down to atlanta or up to charlotte to get theirs.
i guess in the legislature's mind it was fireworks & tobacco = good; tatoos and fullsize liquor bottles in bars = bad.
It was illegal in Massachusetts until about 6 or 7 years ago. Everyone went to Providence for theirs. Now in MA, it is so carefully regulated, it is like going into surgery. This is probably a good thing.
