I remember a lad walking onto Bunkers in the early 70's with a sleeveless T shirt on to display his latest tattoo, and the laughter when people saw it - a flaming cross and underneath " Ku Klux Clan".

Used to work with somebody who had a Sheffield Wedensday tattoo.

Probably depend on whether they had a tattoo or not.

I've edited my post to elaborate on my point. My argument is that tattoos are a lifestyle choice just like religion, and denying a Muslim a job opportunity because they are a Muslim is pretty similar to denying someone a job opportunity for having some harmless tattoos. It's discrimination either way, but they're also both choices.

I am being serious, yes. Care to explain why you disagree? Are they not both lifestyle choices? I only brought religion into it because it was the first analogy that came to mind. It also applies to sports, piercings, the clothes you wear or the hairstyle you have. It's a bit silly to refuse a fully-qualified person a job because they have a tattoo. Especially if they could cover it up during work.

When I was about 6, I remember my grandad telling me that his forearm tattoo moved in the sun.
I since have a forearm tattoo and I think he was lying to me :(
 
I read somewhere tonight about people who lose their hair getting 'stubble' tattoed on it, just seems to me it would be cheaper to get a marker pen and ink your head in
