tattoos


This picture of a tattoo demonstrates a very significant culture called terrorism which uses a variety of logical, emotional, and credible appeals to affect the audience. At first sight, there is a picture of a man with a full beard wearing a turban, however, because one may left from bottom to top and left to right: one could assume it was someone of importance because of the phrase “Rest In Peace” written above the face. After the 9/11 attacks and the United States progress in catching the deserter, the audience could also assume it is Osama Bin Laden. However, there are not any names around the tattoo that indicate his identity. Based on everything that has happened in the last eleven years, the audience’s emotion could feel worried, happy, yet confused at the same time. 

Who might think to put a tattoo of one of the United State’s biggest criminal on their back? This has a very strong voice to the audience because they can have a positive and negative vibe. A positive one would support his death, and the negative would not. There is one thing about catching America’s most wanted fugitive, and there are other who thought he should have been tried in court like our constitution stands. This tattoo reflects the overall belief in terrorism. 

The violence involved in terrorism could allow the audience to have a sense of intimidation staring into the man’s eye in the tattoo. The image reminds the audience of how powerful one man or group of people can be in the world. One could assume this picture was taken after they captured him in 2011, however it could have also been before that date, sort of like a hope or death wish upon him. This is a face one will never forget no matter how old you are, race, gender, or religion you practice.
