Is this guy representative of tattoo "professionals"?

He's representative of somebody who likes guns. Every tattoo artist I know likes guns. We all carry cash, and we've all been robbed at least once. These guys came into our shop with shotguns. Herded us into the clean room. They took the register money, but didn't take any wallets. We have a panic on, but we couldn't get near it. They missed fourteen hundred dollars, as a result. Our gun was locked in the safe. Funny thing is, they wern't after cash. They were after tattooing equipment. They took three machines and two power boxes. Go figure. Now everyone in our shop carries a gun. Scared us bad.
