Florida Tattoo Shop Sparks Massive Backlash After Revealing Why It REFUSES to Serve Active-Duty Military Members and Veterans
June 26, 2026
A Florida tattoo shop has sparked a massive uproar after revealing it is flat-out refusing to serve the heroes who have served and continue to serve our nation.
As Fox News reported, Largo shop Revival Tattoo Collective explained to Americans in a Facebook Post why it will not serve active-duty military members and veterans.
The reason is completely disgusting.
People all in their feelings because I expressed my opinion of the military and law enforcement. My opinion is that the military is a bunch of war criminals and law enforcement kills babies and unarmed citizens in the street. If you don’t like my opinion cool, but you’re not going to change it.
Call me short, post records from 20 years ago, threaten the health dept, use homophobic slurs. That only proves my point and shows the true character of our military. Thanks for showing your true colors.
Once again for the slow ones the military. Pretty simple if you are ex military or currently serving just don’t come to the shop. You will be turned away.
The replies to the post on social media were quite devastating, as one could expect.
Here are some of the most brutal:







In response to the backlash, a spokesperson sent the following response to Fox News:
Yeah, I’m booked up. I can’t take any clients, military or civilian.
Thanks for your interest in my opinion.
Revival Tattoo Collective was founded by Brady Martinson. He is described on the company website as “a tattooist and sign painter — script, blackletter, and custom typography on skin. He treats every word as architecture: measured, weighted, and built to live a lifetime.”
Now, he will be known for being the founder of a tattoo shop that spits on our men and women in uniform. At last check, there are plenty of veterans who get tattoos and can find shops across the country that welcome them with open arms.
Martinson might also be in legal trouble, given that he is actively discriminating against a group of individuals out of sheer hatred.
