Tattoos linked to violent gangs are preventing some immigrants from getting green cards, the Wall Street Journal reports.
According to the paper, concern about foreign gangs has caused U.S. officials to delay or deny applications for permanent residency submitted by dozens of immigrants with tattoos--even those without connections to gangs.

Sounds like someone at the INS is doing something right...for a change.But before too long some terrorist in black robes,an Osama/Clinton/Carter appointee,will put a stop to it.

Mistakes will happen. I’m sure this will be remedied in short order, by the Obama Justice Department.

There was a FR thread in which someone is quoted as saying that anyone who has his face tattooed has condemned himself to minimum wage earnings the rest of his life. It sounds like a realistic statement to me.

Tattoos linked to violent gangs ............................ Yeah, that’s easy to say, but wait til the ACLU gets into the picture. (i.e. the local Neo Nazis and ex cons have their collection of tattoos so why are we discriminating?) Its a good idea to keep the rubbish out, but Libs have a way of making wrongs becoming right. (In their view)
