God Loves My Tattoos!!



I know what your thinking God and tattoos Im about to start some trouble. Yeah your right! First things first tattooing has been around as long as religion maybe longer. Tattooing was once and still is a strong part of different cultures and religions from all over the world. To say it isnt accepted, is saying our ancestors tribal markings and adornments had no significant meaning whatsoever. This is real Tattoos just didn't Up and appear from some dark alley. They've been around before any of the people that despise them so much were ever in existence. You can have your opinion thats cool. But don't judge and say God Don't like this and He don't like That . From my own personal experience most of the Church folk are complete hypocrites period but thats my opinion. But I understand the fear of having to suppress who you are and then point fingers so society can gang up on a group. Fear of having to keep a job you hate doing something you don't like much less love . Tattooed people know this. By being tattooed they simply say hey this is me colored and beautiful. I spent some time on some blogs (MediaTakeOut) reading the comments left about my homie B.Girard. The power of the internet should be a crime. People just judge, curse, they even blamed her parents.WoW!! Im sure those were some church folk in that mix. The day will come when we answer to that higher power and Im sure almost positive my tattoos wont be a issue. Im a good person (so I'm told) and I help others. Judge me on the good Im doing. I've personally tattooed many pastors thats right pastors that have huge congregations and followings.Might be your pastor! Now WhAT!! My name is DtatStar and Im A Tattoo Artist.Peace.

I posted this video because I noticed some of the background singers had tattoos I thought that was cool Mr. Franklin I respect that. (but easy on the makeup)

I DON'T THINK ITS JUST PEOPLE IN THE CHURCH,BEING A TATTED CHRISTIAN MYSELF AND VERY ACTIVE IN MY CHURCH I WOULD HAVE TO SAY THAT I DON'T HAVE THAT HARD OF A TIME WITH MY TATTS THERE. I MAY GET A FEW QUESTIONS HERE AND THERE BUT IF ANYTHING I GET POSITIVE FEEDBACK ON HOW BEAUTIFUL AND BOLD MY ART IS (THANKS DERRICK) THOSE WHO DON'T APPROVE OF THEM AND I'M SURE THEY ARE SOME FOLK WHO DON'T, HOLD THERE TONGUE WHICH I CAN APPRECIATE BECAUSE THEY KNOW ITS NOT THERE PLACE TO JUDGE ME. I WOULD HAVE TO SAY ITS PEOPLE OUTSIDE THE CHURCH WHO JUDGE ME MORE. IN GENERAL I TRULY DO BELIEVE PEOPLE DO SO BECAUSE THEY DON'T KNOW ANY BETTER,THEY ARE CURIOUS AND INSTEAD OF THINKING BEFORE MAKING STATEMENTS AND SO FORTH THEY JUST JUDGE. MANY INCLUDING MYSELF HAD NO IDEA HOW VARIED AND FAR BACK THE TATTOO ERA GOES BACK,THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN ME AND OTHERS WHO JUDGE IS I AM OPEN-MINDED AND DIRECT MY CURIOSITY TOWARDS INFORMATION AND KNOWLEDGE TO FURTHER AID ME....THANKS DERRICK FOR POSTING THIS,JUST SHARING MY 25 CENTS,LOL...

Wow! I love B's art and it's just disgusting at all the judgmental people that are out there today; many of whom are probably tatted themselves. One said "full arm tattoos was the white man thing and black folks followed to be up the white man ass"...um really? Tattooing is a cultural thing from the non-white ethnicity; Japanese, Samoan, Polynesian, Native American, Africans etc. Get your facts straight before you pass judgment on someone, their personal choices and lifestyle. This is why I tend to not go to website like mediatakeout because it breeds ignorance. But it's perfectly find for and acceptable for a woman to inject the botulism via the form of Botox in their face? FOH!! the comment about tattoos causing Cancer; when main people fail to realize is everyone already carried opportunistic cells that can develop into cancer with the right environment even if you are "perfect" and stay away from supposed Cancer causing agents. Ignorance is bliss...NOT!!! Sorry but I love your work D, I love your establishment and their are opportunities for people with tattoos and body art. The corporate world isn't for everyone!
