I am a student at Northridge High and your wife has been teaching me for two years. I've heard a lot about you and it seems like you're a very cool person. I've been keeping up with your situation as best I can and I think it's bull what they're doing. I'm glad you can man up and realize when fighting it just isn't worth it and I respect you for that. I wish to have a few tattoos when I can get them, and reading stuff like this inspires me a lot. It shows that, while most of humanity has fallen to compliance and sheepism, there are still the strong few who have pride and wisdom. PS - I think the idea of getting your tattoos replicated on a shirt is an awesome idea. Just saying. Hey Mark!!! I am a student at Northridge High and your wife has been teaching me for two years.

Personally, I'm not a fan of tatoos but I'm a very big fan and supporter of freedom and speaking up when rights are trampled. I'm not native to this state. I have been stung by the "do it our way" mentality here more than a few times. Its unfortunate. But I would like to lend my moral support to you in your trouble with Ogden High. Please feel to contact me from my website if you'd like. SL Dear Mark,

You have many qualities that ever teacher needs to call themselves a teacher. You are very knowledgeable about the subjects you teach and care about your students. Any school would be proud to have you on their faculty! I'm not sure who started this whole mess but I strongly disagree! Keep your head high and know that me and my graduating class are behind you 100% !!! Thanks for being a great teacher :) Hello Mr. Johnson,

Sucks you had to bow out, but your family's more important than your tattoos so I understand. Good letter though. They know you didn't just kow tow to them like many would. Nice Mark!
