Should employers be able to discriminate based on tattoos?

If people get too comfortable with them, than that 1 percent becomes a higher percent. I know quite a bit of people (me included) that won't get visible tattoos because it could get in the way of future employment. It isn't like a piercing where it's possible to remove at will. It's either there for life or you pay a ton of money to get it removed. That said, most retail jobs, and businesses that cater to the general public allow tattoos. But I can totally see why it would be against Disney, Toys R Us or a similar place's dress code.

I can understand that, but as long as it were coverable I don't see why any employers would steer away from you. So just get ones you can cover. Like I said though, I can understand wanting to abstain completely.

In any case, the fire department I plan on joining has no issues with tattoos so I'm covered datpuntho

Momentai, bro.
If I put it like this:

"(It) doesn't matter (in my opinion), because..."

would you take it better?

Ah, yes. It seems like it was probably just a semantics issue then.

I totally agree, some business just see tattoos as loss of potential profit. If i was a business I probably would too. If you work at a bar its not a big deal, but if your selling china to old ladies its going to be a problem. As a customer they don't bother me.

Just get the tattoos on your somewhere it doesn't show with a t shirt on, I always thought the side of the ribs would be a good place.
