WOW, that is retarded. I know plenty of professionals with tats. I for one have lots of tats, and would pursue that to the bitter end. Most of my tattoos are symbols of my religion and my heritage, to discriminate against that would cause some serious issues with me. I have 2 good buddies that are lawyers and they have tats as well, one has a full body suit done, all the way down to his ankles. In todays age, people need to be less concerned with this type of crap.
