Wow, they do things stupider in Texas, don’t they? If the person taking the rental application saw the tattoos to begin with, then why let them conintue with the process? And they took their money for the fee! Man, this makes me want to buy a house.

I understand the argument between private property rights (as in the right of the landowner) and the rights of the individual. As someone who is tatted up quiet nicely, I understand that I have to cover things in order to make a go at life sometimes. But I’ve never heard of anything this restrictive when it comes to a living situation. While it’s not right, it is legal. The guy is still a douche for setting that  policy up. I would think that someone with a clean credit history and good references would be a find for a landlord.

This makes me glad to live in Portland.
