Definitely worth watching.
I have several tattoos, one of which you've all seen. The others I won't show, nor will I elaborate as to were I got them. Suffice it to say what I have are there for a reason and I wouldn't want to get one from one of these places.
Enlightening, repulsive, scary, sad, shocking... a lot of emotions are expressed in this video and definitely felt by the viewer. It makes the prison system in North America look like Disneyland by comparison. I definitely would NOT want to spend ANY amount of time there.
I highly recommend you take the time to watch it!!

I'm sure your post is more about the hidden meaning behind 'certain' tattoos and not the criminals here, but I have to say I don't pity these guy at all. Interesting video regardless.

Yes... you're correct. I am more interested in the hows and whys of the tatts themselves and not so much about the individuals... interesting as their stories can be. But abhorrent behaviour will always result in some form of penalty, whether the behaviour is merely a vice or criminal in nature. Whether anyone other than me is as appalled at the conditions in which these sad souls are forced to live doesn't really matter I guess. Each POV is as different as the individual watching.
All I could think of after watching that doc was:
Pitiful are the acts of the man who knows no shame. Shameful are the acts of the man who knows no pity.

I only pity ignorance, not willful evil.
