Tons of people have face tattoos, neck tattoos, wear hats and aren’t “wannabe gangsters or gangsters”. I think you were implying something else entirely but I’ll give you the benefit of the doubt.

No. I'm not. Anyone who has a face tattoo of a tear drop is a wannabe gangster. Find me a single counter example. You know, we're able to make certain inferences from observable data, right? You can understand that can't you? Sure, do I know with 100% certainty? No. But can I be like 5-sigma certain? Abso-fucking-lutely.

A single counter example-- Kat Von D. She's a famous tattoo artist with a cluster of small stars tattooed on her face.

Another counter example-- I knew a guy who got teardrop tattoos on his face and he's just a dude who likes shitty tattoos. He's an artist and ne'er-do-well but really doesn't have any designs on being a gangster.

You know, you're able to make inferences based on bias too. How do you know that this isn't one of them?

Ok. You don't think there's any reason he likes the teardrop tattoos? He just "likes" them? Sure, my guy.
