  • You’re right that crime (“side of things” I think) is a problem. It’s a problem everywhere.

    You’re wrong about it being a necessary step. It’s political pantomime at best, it’s racial dog whistling at worst. Adding extra rules won’t solve crime as you pointed out there a potential of being misused.

    It takes a large effort from politicians and a native population open to identifying what are the causes of crimes from the immigrant sector. Lastly, it takes money and resources, which no one wants to foot the bill for.

    I don’t know what the solution is, but this isn’t it.











  • Huh. I’m curious why they are focusing on the ink as the vector for this pathogen, but no mention of the shop’s sterile procedures (although given that one of the four patients had the tattoo as far back as 35 years ago, a proper investigation might have been tough.)

    I think the PSA here is:

    If you want to get a tattoo, check and research both the shop and artists on your own before committing. Make sure that they are following all possible health care practices, including their use of legit sourced tools and equipment. And please, please, follow the shop’s post-care instructions to avoid any infections.
