(NEWSER) – A Georgia father who tattooed "DB"—for "Daddy's Boy"—on the shoulder of his 3-year-old son has been fined $300 and sentenced to a year's probation. The tattoo was discovered when workers from the state's Department of Family and Children Services made a home visit, reports theRome News-Tribune. It is illegal in Georgia to tattoo anybody under 18.
The father—who told police he was drunk and didn't remember tattooing the letters—is no longer allowed to have contact with the toddler. He pleaded guilty to a misdemeanor charge of tattooing a minor. The district attorney called the case "egregious," though the judge appeared to have her doubts. "I am trying to figure out why this is illegal,†she said. “Is it illegal to pierce your little girl’s ears?"

People are so crazy. The Judge is just as much of an idiot for even questioning why that's wrong.
