Yeah, So I'm behind on the news...I'm slackin' in many other departments as well, but..catching up on some nearly 2 week old news I found that Joel Madden got discriminated against. He was refused flight to London because of his tattoos.
Tattoo discrimination exists everywhere and can happen to anyone. While he managed to laugh it off, he still admitted that it made him feel small. People are so judgmental. I find it ironic that a lot of the times those that are being judgmental have some pretty freaky skeletons in their own closets.
It's our bodies. Period. I don't see how a person with a tattoo is any different from one without. We are lawyers, doctors, soccer moms, cheerleaders, artists, good samaritans, athletes, church goers, seamstresses, military, government, and many other types of people. How we choose to express ourselves should not prevent us from flying, working, eating, or any other type of thing non tattooed people are able to do.
That's how I see it. I see...One person robs a bank and he/she is covered in tattoos and suddenly we are all bank robbers. However, the chance that is tattoos had anything to do with him robbing that bank are slim to none.
Just saying. Some people should check how sturdy their glass is before they throw rocks at my glass house.
