Where is the judgment in the post? I’m not saying one is better or worse, just opining that a certain group is less likely to have the tats in question. This opinion could be wrong and am happy to hear other’s experiences and will change my view if it turns out my own experience is not borne out on a wider level.

As for the post being discriminatory, below is the dictionary definition of the word:

treating a person or particulargroup of peopledifferently, especially in a worse way from the way in which you treat other people, because of theirskincolour, sex, sexuality, etc.:”

I have never suggested different treatment as I suggested one policy, applicable to all, which follows that of the airport. No new rules would need to be made up. That is not the same as saying it’s less likely to happen within a certain group. The same policy would apply irrespective of likelihood.

Anyway, I’m very happy to agree to disagree if you are too?
