Boston residents who selflessly filled the city's blood donation supply after the Marathon bombings last week are now using their skin as a way to commemorate the perseverance of their neighbors.  Many Bostonians are getting tattoos to memorialize the three people killed in the bombing and the more than 250 others who were injured at the finish line.  'I did it on my leg for all the people who lost their legs to kind of pay tribute in that way,' Katie Collins said.





































Valuable property: Many feel that the tragedy- and the city's reaction to it- is something that they want to remember


















































Wherever works: The various tattoos have found homes on a range of body parts



































Pride: Colleen Cushman, 24, got the city skyline tattooed on her lower back in honor of the city's perseverance

This is a knee jerk reaction tattoo, most of those people probably are going to regret it. That's coming from a dirty inkie.

I read the title as "Bosnians" so needless to say it was confusing at first. Neck tattoos are always a bad idea and none of that ink looks particularly good. At least they didn't get portraits of 0.

I thought he stole a Ruger off the cop, didn't he? Oh well, even worse if they were all cowering in his house and didn't even have anything.

Wow...



Their bodies, their choice...but wow.

I can see some "stolen valor" of sorts coming from this by some pathetic bastard in the future.

"Yeah man, I was THERE! See that scar on my ankle? That's a shrapnel wound from the second bomb. If I had been only ten feet closer I wouldn't be here right now. I was so close that my ears are STILL ringing".

IIRC most of these fruit loops didn't do ANYTHING besides cower in their homes.

I'm sorry, but if you didn't take any injuries in the initial blasts, or the following firefights, shut your damn mouth and go home.
