SAVE FEEL THE STEEL TATTOO

In my opinion, Geoff and his team at Feel the Steel are wonderful people. Geoff should not be discriminated against due to an unrelated issue that happened years ago. It would be very sad and a loss to the Hawkesbury community if you close his business and take away his licence to tattoo.

good person Excellent work

give these fellas a fair go at keeping their business alive please. Please look at their background and any association or criminal history fairly! There are too many tattoo shops hiding in other people's names and these blokes are the face and back bone of their shop. Thank you Blake

This is so unfair, when does your past determine your future, and what does it have to do with you doing a good honest job. If rehabilitation is what the aim is for anyone that has made a mistake, WHY is Geoff being punished now? Give him a fair go, he has proved himself and who of us have never made a mistake.

This is bullying. Legitimate business owner being harassed.

Great shop, nice guys, never seen anything dodgy in there

Let them stay they are great blocks I've had my Tatts there wouldn't go any where else

it can't just be a blanket law, Every case needs to be looked into individually

This is a crazy law, hurting two families, we all make mistakes, and most of us learn from them, let Geoff get on with his life and also Paulie an innocent in all this, our government surely have more important things to deal with !!!

How can they possibly shut you down for something so ridiculous!!

I have had quite a few tattoo's from Geoff over the years. The government is wrong on this. So anyone can open a cafe or any other business with a criminal record but not run a tattoo business? The laws were about outlaw bikie clubs and in this case there is absolutely no affiliation.

I hope this helps

How wrong is this law, or the way it has been imposed, to take away a citizens right to run a lawful business. It's shameful and wrong.

This isnt fair

I have never he any work done here but my good mate THawkett has and he speaks nothing but good things, I do have a lot of tattoos myself and understand the discrimination that comes with them that shouldn't exist in this day and age, I wish you guys the best of luck.

Fingers crossed for common sense to prevail!! All the best guys

I don't have any tattoos, but can appreciate the time, talent and artwork. Why should someone running a legitimate business with employees suffer due to a non violent past conviction where he suffered the consequences, and became a better business-focussed person from it? Give him the license, maybe even under a probationary period, to prove his worth to our community and business sector. Tattoo parlours are becoming more widely accepted, respected and a value to small business.

I have employees with tattoos do i now fire them for having one, of course not. Leave the man in peace and let him support his family.

This just isn't fair. Would the government prefer to pay unemployment benefits to these hard working people than to support a business where people work for their money?

I have never been here but hanging around in Richmond I have heard people talk about this being the best tatooing buisness.
