A skull and crossbones would not offend a pirate if you are a pirate and that is your way of showing pirate pride!

That being said, go for it!

Skull and crossbones are bad-ass symbols!

The Punisher might think you're trying to move into his territory. I'd watch out, lest ye get punished. ;)

The only thing that offends me these days is how easily most people get offended these days....so I say if it offends someone that makes it all the better.

Don't GWB and J.F.Kerry have this tattooed on their asses?

Remember when those aircraft carriers were for sale on eBay a while ago? I really really really wanted to buy one and hoist the jolly roger and set sail for Boston but some idiot sold me a defective lottery ticket... :(

the only one I can think of is the secret society....but in reality they probably dont care either as thats likely not ther real symbol.

That sounds like an excellent reason to do it :p

It might, but you have to remember that that's *their problem*, not yours.
