The short answer is - yes, but only for each individual brands design. A general trademark or patent likely does not apply since the 'stork design' has been in use since antiquity and no one is allowed to claim it (theres no trademark or patent on the wheel) . However - an individual or specifically unique design can indeed be trademarked, and undoubtedly is on stork scissors made by large companies. There may also be design patents on uniquely different stork scissors where the result is different enough to apply. The evidence is that competing manufacturers all produce their own version of the stork design, but they are all slightly different so they are not in violation of one anothers tradmarked design. Just as there are many different honey producers put their product in 'bear shaped' bottles.

Can I be a slave?
If you're talking about the kind of slave I'd send outside in 100 degree weather to cut my front lawn with hand scissors for only a cup of water and a piece of bread then no...slavery is illegal. If you're talking about slavery in the BDSM sense of the term, you'll need to go to the appropriate forums and websites that deal with that sort of thing. WikiAnswers and Answers are not the right places to look.
How do you go about unlicensed tattoo artist lawsuit?
It depends on the reason for the lawsuit. If you knew the tattooist was unlicensed before you had a design done, you can't expect to win a case against them - as you chose to enter their business and have the work done. Sure - the tattooist could be prosecuted for unlicensed practice - but that case would be brought by the state - not an individual customer.
Is cutting someones hair illegal without their consent?
Yes, in most civilized societies this could be considered battery. Even threatening to cut another person's hair could be considered an assault if it appears you are capable and likely to carry out the threat, ie, you are wielding a pair of scissors or a knife for the purpose of carrying out the threat, and especially if you are making the threat in a menacing fashion. On the other hand if you have given your dependent child a haircut, whether they like it or not, you will probably not need to worry much...unless, of course you have used undue force, or something beyond acceptable parental authority.
