Not generalizing. Democrats will be casting Ben Carson as an Uncle Tom. Bet on it.

Well if the tattoos are covered how could they possibly be held against someone?

Exactly right.

LOL. Yes, the tattooed people I work with want the job. Go race-bait someone else. There are two blacks in my shop of one-hundred. Neither has a tattoo. Neither do the Hispanics or American Indians. One Asian woman in the office has a butterfly on her shoulder. The white guys? Tattoos everywhere. One white kid we refer to as "Billy Badass" has a tattoo that's bigger than he is.

IT's a factor. Listening to words about violence, disrespect of women, sex, etc hours every day- 365 days a year influences the mind. What factors do you attribute to the deterioration of black communities? Be careful, if you hold blacks responsible for their actions- you are insensitive and politically incorrect! Make sure to find a way to blame it on white Christians- VERY politically correct!!

They already have. Any black person who doesn't toe the Democrat line is called an Uncle Tom. The black community needs to get over the stigma of being called that name---so it loses its effectiveness. But right now it's highly effective.

I don't see tattoos being negative or unemployable but pants to the knees is just plain nasty and ghetto. Nobody would hire.

Remember Tipper Gore? Are you related to her?
