I don't know what's sadder...

I don't know what's sadder: the fact that people think that making a Facebook group will cause social change, or the fact that these groups receive airtime at all from site like the INQ. What a sad state humanity has descended to.

Oh FFS

Getting a tattoo is your choice, not liking tattoo's is someone else's. You should be aware of the fact that getting a tattoo will put you at risk of discrimination by those that dislike ink.

Aside from the fact that someone used a computer to complain about the fact that they were bounced for scribbling on themselves with a sharp pen is there any IT angle at all?

Thought not... talk about a slow news day!

Absolutely right.

Worked though, didn't it?

"Body Art" discrimination?!

How far down the plumbing has society gotten when someone cries "discrimination" based on something as frivolous as tattoos? 
There's real discrimination out there, racial, religious, gender, the disabled. That level of exclusion is wrong. But to cry about someone not liking a choice one has made about their appearance, that's absurd. If I dye my hair purple and get turned away from a black-tie dinner, I have no one to blame but myself. 
Tattoo all you want, but when someone finds your choice of appearance offensive, that's your own problem, not theirs.

Christ, not this shot again . . .

Anyone else tired of social networking sites giving those with an entitlement complex a means to vent their "woes?" Though I have no issue with body art, anyone who immediately turns to FaceBook, MySpace or any other means played out medium whenever they feel "wronged" is nothing more than a child trying to get their 15 minutes of Internet fame.

If this guy really wants to make a statement he should organize locally and act directly against the offending establishment. Instead, his feeble attempt at a movement is filed under "attention whore" along with any number of bloggers complaining about the insignificant.

INQ Poll

Authorities in several countries raided Megaupload recently, shut down all of its services, seized hundreds of servers and arrested several of its executives on criminal charges.

Do you think the move was justified?
