Bit of a more light hearted debate, but considering I plan on getting inked up pretty soon, I figured I'd bring it up. Basically, I don't really get why it's an acceptable form of discrimination. Unless the tattoos are blatantly obscene or offensive, there should be no problem. The fact that some customers might find them unsightly and not give their business is a bunk rationalization to not hire people for visible tattoos. Whether other people find then unsightly isn't my problem, and if your entire business is going to go up in flames because some people that hate tattoos aren't giving you their money anymore, your business probably sucked and wasn't going to go far anyway. You can find tons "unsightly" stuff about people but we don't discriminate against someone because their gawdy dark purple lipstick and green eye shaxow is aesthetically unpleasing. Also, just because body modifications are a choice isn't a good reason to discriminate against either, obviously, or else we'd be discriminating against religious people, which is a no no as far as I'm aware.
