I have researched getting a tattoo of a arrow and I know that it is a very sacred to Indian tribes?

Question

...  and it would be to me to, but I want to put it across my  my back from hip to hip and my friend tells me this would be disrespectful would it be or not?

Answer

It's disrespectful in two ways, actually. 

1. Yes, it's a sacred symbol to Aboriginal groups, and they might take offense to cultural appropriation. 

2. A tattoo on the lower back is a "tramp stamp", so, that's just adding to the disrespect.
