    As someone in the educational field, I love the fact that the philosophy of the facility he was sent to shows what youth need that are in trouble. And the fact that some of the staff went to see him at a convention later on was so sweet!

    Booboo gave me all of my tattoos and I can 100% confirm that he spent his time with me on my smaller tattoos and didn’t shame me for what I wanted. He is a bright light now missing from this world. Great interview, Freddy is an icon.

      He did like it though, his mother is the only reason why he got it removed. Obviously he didn’t need it lol it isn’t like tattoos give you abilities or something.

    I’m saying a prayer for you, that you might find relief from your sorrows more often than not. God bless.

To see your success is a wonderful story.

    Now that was an interesting video, Inked. My heart goes out to Freddy, I can't imagine out living your kids. But damn, Jack Rudy, Paul? Ed? Freddy? You guys are tattoo royalty. I remember buying the tattoo magazines, my god, twenty-five years ago? Thirty? Making up for lost time now in my 50s and covering the skin worth putting ink into.

      Agreed bro, but I don’t think Inked will do that. Just looking at the videos they put out seems like they are really stuck on “quirky” artist. Which is shame because you guys like Chuco Moreno that are fucking great artists.
