They say politics makes strange bedfellows. Not really. There is usually an agenda behind it, just not one we can see. Check out today’s Pilot article about tatoo parlors. Norfolk council is about to retain the ban on them, even though the City Manager recommends that they be allowed and the City Attorney, with the suit against the city set to be heard next week, warns that “time is running out.”
The interesting part to me is who is voting against this: Vice Mayor Paul R. Riddick and council members W. Randy Wright, Barclay C. Winn and Don Williams. Watch this coalition, folks. I suspect we are going to see it time and again over the next few years, especially if this is true.
I suppose the old bias against sailors and dock workers must still be around. 😉 If the rest of Hampton Roads can embrace their love for tattoos, why not Norfolk?
Tatoos go to the “poverty of values” issue is the money made on this new bus. worth higher crime rates, and drugs no it is not we should spent time trying to bring good bus. instead of bad bus., does the tatoo palors provide long term jobs no.
