I didn’t think we should tattoo people with symbols who are mentally disabled, but then again I’m fine with them doing it to themselves

[–] LEDZeppelin -1 points 10 months ago

Another "Only in America" moment.

[–] [email protected] 26 points 10 months ago (2 children)

Guns should be more tightly regulated in this ridiculous country, but I like guns. However, I don't make anything my entire personality, including guns. It's a sign of a weak mind.

Tattooing ARs on your eyebrows is a pretty good sign that guns are your whole personality.

[–] n0clue 3 points 10 months ago

Those are M16s, ARs don't have carry handles, not that it really matters.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 10 months ago

I admire not making anything their entire personality people.

[–] Thrashy 18 points 10 months ago

"ArE yOu TrIgGeReD, LiB?"

"No, just feeling pity for you in spite of myself."

[–] [email protected] 18 points 10 months ago

I hate it when my eyebrows declare war against each other

[–] Treczoks 16 points 10 months ago (1 children)

So everyone can see in his face that he is a potentially armed and dangerous nut job. It is actually a service to society.

[–] Mr_Blott 3 points 10 months ago

A coward

Ftfy

[–] wellee 16 points 10 months ago (1 children)

This is like a crappy edgy tattoo a bad rapper gets lmao. Who let grandpa out without supervision!

[–] sigh 3 points 10 months ago (1 children)

he should get 'DAMAGED' tatted on his forehead

[–] [email protected] 4 points 10 months ago

No ragrets.

[–] [email protected] 13 points 10 months ago (2 children)

You just don't see people like this outside the US. Makes ya think.

[–] pete_the_cat 11 points 10 months ago (2 children)

There are definitely ridiculous people all throughout the world, the US doesn't have a monopoly on them. We just have more people than like 95% of other countries (IIRC only China and India have more people) and those people happen to have wide access to tech, and money to do dumb shit like this.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 10 months ago (2 children)

I just mean folks aren't as gun-crazy in Europe or elsewhere as Americans. It's odd.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 10 months ago

To a degree, but also I don't regularly see old men with any kind of eyebrow tattoos in Europe supporting, say, cars or woodworking etc.

[–] Buddahriffic 0 points 10 months ago (1 children)

My guess is that WWII caused pretty much everyone in Europe to experience how horrible machine guns are for both the winners and losers while it still remained a bit abstract for those in the Americas.

Also, USA hasn't been screwed over by an arms race yet, while Europe has.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 10 months ago

I think a lot of it is just reactionary thinking to gun control, exacerbated by the people pushing gun control doing a terrible fucking job of it and feeding the outrage loop.

Someone pushes some dumb law that makes it so only the rich can own a certain accessory or whatever, gun nuts get big mad, it solves nothing and school shootings continue because it did nothing but annoy gun owners while everyone refuses to address the socioeconomic and cultural roots of domestic terrorism in the first place because that's dangerously close to S O C I A L I S M (aka the government doing stuff)

Toss this all into a general culture that views overthrowing an unjust government as like, the coolest thing you can do, because it is, and you get loser grandpas who maybe once got to be a slave soldier in Vietnam getting gun tattoo eyebrows.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 10 months ago (1 children)

oh there are crazies everywhere but this breed is native to the us

[–] pete_the_cat 1 points 10 months ago

We love our "freedom"!

[–] [email protected] 4 points 10 months ago

I don't know, have you seen the tattoos on Salvadorian gang members? Now imagine some of them surviving till they are 80.

[–] Decoy321 12 points 10 months ago (1 children)

I applaud this dude. He's got balls. He's telling us up front that we won't have to respect any opinion he'll ever share.

[–] Mr_Blott 4 points 10 months ago

It would've been easier to just tattoo "I'm a coward" on his loaf

[–] [email protected] 11 points 10 months ago

looks like the same person whom a decade ago would tell young people they would regret their tattoos when they are older.

[–] Daft_ish 8 points 10 months ago (1 children)

It's like if your grandpa joined a prison gang.

[–] Agent641 5 points 10 months ago

My grandpa was in a prison gang. His tatts were all non-consentual tho

[–] gennygameshark 8 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Forgot the bullseye in the middle 🎯

[–] [email protected] 26 points 10 months ago

Reminds me of this classic.

Social media image post of a woman with a target stuck to her forehead. Poster: "This is how it feels to be a white conservative woman." First reply: "i actually love this metaphor because it's a fake target and you've put it there yourself."

[–] SatansMaggotyCumFart 8 points 10 months ago (2 children)

I wonder what this guy does for work.

[–] Agent641 7 points 10 months ago

Boomer

Work

Choose one

[–] sigh 6 points 10 months ago (1 children)

bold of you to assume he goes to work

[–] SatansMaggotyCumFart 3 points 10 months ago

I could imagine he’s the greeter at ARmart or sits around and rents places to young people who he considers lazy.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 10 months ago

Guns don’t kill eyebrows. Tattoo needles do.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 10 months ago (1 children)

This has gotta be peak ATBGE right??

[–] Agent641 8 points 10 months ago

I feel like this might have happened while doing chemo for cancer. Old mate probably thought he was gonna die, so was like "Fuck it, we ball!"

[–] [email protected] 5 points 10 months ago

Uncle Leo changed a bit.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 10 months ago

This is MGK's grandpa, MGG

How could we not? Maybe we need a red circle to help direct our attention further

YAASSS BITCH SLAY

[–] [email protected] 2 points 10 months ago

Spot the Weird Al Yankovic.

[–] HowManyNimons 2 points 10 months ago

Those aren't eyebrows: they're cuts.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 10 months ago

Brows of meth.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 10 months ago

Well, disguising the lack of eyebrows with a tattoo is not a bad solution. However, it is unclear why the choice was made in favour of an image of an automatic carbine.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 10 months ago

Ooookay then grampa. Go back to sittin on your porch and yelling at anyone who has hair that they're a damn hippy.
