He came across as saying that tattoos are, in all cases, such an obviously bad idea that only a complete idiot would get one. I don't have any myself, but I'm sort of open to the idea that I might get one some day, and I have friends who have ink I greatly admire, so I took it kinda personal.
I'm pretty much in agreement about the burqa. It's definitely a crime to force someone to wear it, but it's pretty hard to justify the proposition that making it illegal will help the victims of that crime.
