Tattooing in Oklahoma to be legal
“State Rep. John Wright, R-Broken Arrow, thinks legal tattooing will hurt the state’s economy because employers are less likely to hire a job applicant who’s tattooed. ‘Our society as a whole still does not view tattoos in a favorable light,’ he said. ‘Many CEOs do not wish to have people working on their front lines who are overtly calling attention to themselves.’”
Good, he shouldn’t have to worry about Oklahomans leaving the state to get a job on say, Wall Street.

It doesn’t matter how someone dresses or what they have on their body. God sees our hearts not what we wear or how we look physically. If people want tattoos that is their business and should not be turned down for a job because of them.
