That doesn't mean we should accept it and take it to extreme cases, like deciding who is employable and who is not. What matters is that cop's personal ability to do the job. In fact, I bet in his line of work, the tattoo helps him better relate to people and allows him to interact with portions of the community that he otherwise might not be able to so easily.

For example, the small town I grew up in had a cop with an eagle tattoo on his forearm. We all thought it was cool when we were 13, and he used to show it off and use it as an ice breaker. Little known to us, while he was using that tattoo as a conversation piece he was also making mental notes of who we were and what we were up to. Goddamn prick was the first to write me a speeding ticket,

I'm reading another article on the Star Telegram about Six Flags denying entry to certain people based on their tattoos, or forcing them to cover the tattoos. Again, completely absurd. If you don't like the tattoo, don't fucking look at it.

Lets judge people for something more important, like being a fucking lazy fat ass....there's plenty of fat lazy people to hate on, and their condition is far more harmful to society than tattooing.
