Again--it's a choice on who you want to associate with. If someone offends you, then there's no reason to associate with them. To do so would be illogical...would make no sense.

I guess I simply don't get 'offended' as easily as you.
So you associate with drug users and other criminals also? Since you take no offense to anyone at all?
All I said is if you find someone offensive, it makes no sense to associate with that person.
I would like to think you know the difference between someone who has a tattoo and someone who robbed a bank.
I never said I take no offense, but I suppose I am more willing to let a person make their case than not. A really close friend of mine used to do heroin...a lot. With the help of his friends, he's been clean for nearly 5 years and he's one of the best people I've ever had the pleasure to be around. If I were like you, I would have immediately written him off and lost a great friendship.
Not everyone with a tattoo goes to prison, but everyone in prison has a tattoo.
I notice that when I see prison shows on TV. Everyone is covered in tattoos. So if every law abiding person eventually get's tattooed (except for myself, I will be the last person on earth without tattoos) what will criminals do to seperate themselves from those who obey the law? Will they attach horns to their head? Whatever they do to disfigure themselves the masses will soon follow their lead.

I'm pretty sure criminals separate themselves from those who obey the law by committing crimes....
Correlation does not equal causation. Plus, if you notice, a LOT of the tattoos on gang members (both my aunt and uncle work for the LAPD, so I've seen a few) are religion related.
Should I now assume everyone who is religious will commit a crime?

If you were like me, you'd only have one friend at any given time. The best most people achieve is "acquaintance". I reserve the title of "friend" for my significant other.
