If you’ve got ink, you can’t live here

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.

Not all of Texas is like that. In this situation I think that the owners of the apt complex hell bent on making the world what they want it to be and only surrounding themselves with what they want to see. I think that it is wrong and I do not condone this kind of behaviour. The area of Texas that I live in is very muc like Central Florida! I think that is part of the reason that I adjusted so quickly. I see farmers, bikers, tattooed and pierced college kids, etc… I feel at home here.

That’s pretty foul. I thought this country was getting better about that stuff, but I guess not.
