I wore my hair long and had an ear ring for many years.

Most young people today don't see tats as anything more than body art or a way to express themself. Old people see tats as something that an upstanding member of society would never do, which is completely ridiculous in today's society.
Yeah, I was discriminated against.
You know what? That look was my choice. I could cut my hair and take off the ear ring any time.
People who get tats where they show have also made a choice, one that's not quite so easy to reverse.
There it is.hi-power wrote:I don't care if the solicitor is young, old, fat, skinny, white, black, brown, tats, no tats, there is nothing that I need that gets sold door to door nowadays.
Even if it's something I really want, I won't buy it from some stranger who knocks on my door or calls me on the phone. If I want it, I'll come to you.
Girl Scouts (gotta love the cookies
), Boy Scouts, and legitimate kids from the local school raising money get a pass. The rest of you, GET OFF MY LAWN!I may start asking solicitors if they have a permit and calling the police on them. I have no idea if my town requires permits or not, but if they're going to harass me at home, this looks like a good way to harass them for doing it.
