A Florida tattoo shop is facing backlash following a social media post from the shop that said active-duty military members and veterans are not welcome at the company, prompting online criticism.
A June 23 post from Revival Tattoo Collective in Largo, Florida, read, "People all in their feelings because I expressed my opinion of the military and law enforcement.
My opinion is that the military is a bunch of war criminals and law enforcement kills babies and unarmed citizens in the street.
If you don’t like my opinion cool, but you’re not going to change it.
Call me short, post records from 20 years ago, threaten the health dept, use homophobic slurs.
That only proves my point and shows the true character of our military.
Thanks for showing your true colors."
The post added, "Once again for the slow ones the military.
Pretty simple if you are ex military or currently serving just don’t come to the shop.
You will be turned away."

The shop was founded by Brady Martinson, who is described on the website as "a tattooist and sign painter — script, blackletter, and custom typography on skin.
He treats every word as architecture: measured, weighted, and built to live a lifetime."
A few of the replies to the controversial post appeared to agree with the sentiment, with one woman saying, "The military preys on underprivileged youth by luring them in with promises to pay for college and makes it sound like it’s their only opportunity to get ahead in life.
ACAB."
ACAB is an abbreviation for "all cops are b----ds."
But many of the replies were negative.

One person wrote, "This kind of thinking is disappointing and immature.
Judging an entire group by the actions of a few is the same type of prejudice I’m sure you claim to oppose.
(IE: Against a race, the lgbtq community, etc…) There are good and bad people in every profession and every walk of life."
They added, "I’ve served alongside people of every background imaginable and some of the most selfless, compassionate individuals I’ve met wear a uniform.
Reducing millions of military members and law enforcement officers to the worst examples among them isn’t being "woke" or smart — it’s just bias.
If you are going to reject stereotypes, you should reject them consistently.
Heal yourself and break this never-ending cycle of conflict among humans."
Another person replied, "Lmao it must be so peaceful being this ignorant."

"I don't agree with your opinion, but that doesn't mean I won't fight for your right to say it.
Please keep in mind that the First Amendment merely proyects [sic] you from being punished by the government for your speech.
It does not protect you from the consequences of what you say," another commentator wrote.
One gun replied to the post with a gif that said, "Stop breaking the law a--hole."
Another posted a reply saying, "I'll go and just wont tell you till after lmao," and Revival Tattoo Collective responded to the post with, "No you won’t."
In a statement to Fox News Digital, a spokesperson for the shop said, "Yeah I’m booked up I can’t take any clients military or civilian.
Thanks for your interest on my opinion."
