I this guy asked me for a job I'd turn him down just for wearing a 49ers jersey ;) Now tattoo wearers are jumping on the protected class bandwagon? He has a right to ink himself up, but there are consequences. Fair or not, first impressions are lasting impressions.

“I don’t know what to do. I feel like I was bullied. I feel like I was treated unfairly and misled, and I don’t know why.”

All together now, "Awwwwww" How sad. He feels bullied. What is this? Second grade? Direct result of the "give everyone a trophy for just showing up" and the "make everyone believe they're extra special" movements.

“She said, ‘No, the only reason we’re not hiring you is because of your tattoos,'” said Roach. “I don’t know what to do. I feel like I was bullied. I feel like I was treated unfairly and misled, and I don’t know why.”

She TOLD you it was because of the tattoos, dumba$$.

Now, I wouldn't hire you because apparently you cannot understand simple English.

I wouldn't hire him either.

He and others are free to look like circus freaks and I remain free to treat him like one.

Of course it’s discrimination. SO WHAT. Freedom gives us he right to discriminate as to with whom we choose to associate.

Yes, moron, it’s discriminating.

When an employer interviews 6 people for a position, he uses discriminating skills to determine which 5 people to eliminate.

If you’re stupid enough to permanently mar your body to look like a complete non-thinking sheep, it’s likely your name will be moved to the bottom of the list. You are arriving at the interview with a sign that announces your lack of good judgment.

Mrs. Thorne and I took Little Miss Perfect Thorne to a local restaurant for dinner. The waiter, although friendly, was wearing a short sleeved shirt which displayed his tattoos. One of them was a full-frontal depiction of a naked, busty female devil on his right arm.

We never went back.

It is discrimination. I wouldn’t hire him to change the cat box. We all discriminate. It’s an instinctive, human method of survival.

if the MSM was not bought and paid for by the current Admin. this would never hit the news.

The entire world is on fire. Ebola. ISIS. North Korea. the russians stealing the north pole.

We get to listen to a pubby bitching about being stupid.

Nobody seems to mention that people with tattoos are at high risk for things like hepatitis. If he applied for a job in a healthcare setting, I would say that they are justified for not hiring him. The tattooing industry is not regulated the way that many industries are. You are dealing with blood exposure when you get a tattoo. Sure, many tattoo studios are using sanitary techniques and sterilizing their equipment, but there is no real oversight.

This is an interesting cultural initative and cliche riddled thinking will not find an understanding of the need for permanent body decoration. Conservatives really need to understand the psychological dynamic of defiance, lol! C’mon, it’s a republican’s bread and butter. We need to take that archetype back from the left-anarchists.

Warriors from all points of the compass use body art as a statement of courage. Tattoos are painful for starters and their implementation requires a tolerance of pain, job one of any fox hole soldier. There are lots of 50’s retro renegade demographics that vote Republican and uphold conservative values. Sure they invoke an “other side of the tracks” image, but the urge to live a free life is not patented by members of the Daughters of the American Revolution, they are a bit more universal than that and sit nicely within the manifold beauties of American trailer trash culture. You conservative standard bearers had better come to grips with trailer trash culture. Yah, it may be soaked in booze, meth and the Holy Grail of dope, but its members will be on the front lines and at the barricades of liberty. Don’t ever forget that. Lady Liberty is tolerant of social aberration and the many geniuses that it gestates. Freedom is tolerant, tyranny is intollerant, period.
