I'm guessing LCG and HTCO didn't realize that you posted a video of DB switching. Thanks for posting this video! I do get it!

A Park employee(not management as I pointed out in my post) has asked a women,(because of 2 tattoo's), that she thought was offensive(she could of easily asked upper management for a opinion and have them deal with it.) This wasn't two pot leaves tho...(did you know pot can be legally obtain as a medical Marijuana prescription in California? SO don't really see where you were going with this example) Also this wasn't two bloody knives either... Private Property or not, The customer felt as if she was singled out by the employee(which she was) and discriminated against because of a harmless tattoo. Also yes it was private property but the employee was in no right to denied her entrance to the park, also her tattoo didn't interfere with the dress code at all. There should of been no confrontation in the first place. Associates are told too enforce rule yes, BUT when it deals with having too reject a paying customer off the property then a manager HAS too step in. Managers are trained too deal with these type of situations and know what to say and how to handle the conflict. Also to the other half of your post, please do not compare apples to oranges. I don't believe that a manager would give a seasonal employee the power too reject a paying customer. Yes if she spots a problem, her job is too tell upper management. As you can see from this event, she took power into her own hands and now this is the outcome. Also I was just making a point in my paragraph about the hair color. The tattoo situation is just the same. From what I've seen from the tattoo, nothing looks offensive. I don't think the park is aloud to tell you too cover up a tattoo unless they have a restriction on it(in which Six Flags OT does not) That be like going too Kings Island and having a employee asking me to put a band-aid over my pierced eyebrow. Well see I can understand if someone was asked to change shirts cause it prompts rape/murder. That's why parks have dress code. Not the same thing when the park doesn't have a restriction on body art. Also the meaning of culture Culture-The set of shared attitudes, values, goals, and practices that characterizes an institution, organization or group

1. To my understanding , the employee wasn't park management and had no right to denied her entrance too the park because of her tattoo. 2. Like all things, anything out of the norm, people will react too it. You really have me confuse here also, you typed Almost anyone finds anything offensive now and days. I was actually told one day that a customer at my store found my hair color to be offensive, are you saying I should put a bag over my head because a lady found it offensive(my hair was black with gray tips) Just making a point. 3. Can't really comment, Because I as well wished they would of called her. 4. I would of been bothered also to be honest. A park employee basically told her , that her tattoo was offensive and she had to cover it up, it probably hurt the woman's feelings. Its was like a low blow too her. As you can tell from the article the women is very passionate about tat's. Starting the day out with a negative encounter like this is no fun. 5. Its the public. Point blank and simple. You're going to run into a lot of people with different styles and different backgrounds and different cultures. You may not agree with them because its out of your "norm" but that doesn't mean they should be a minority.

Events like these that take place just really make me upset. Here's a mother of 3 and a wife celebrating her husbands birthday at the park, and here comes some employee telling her she can't gain access to the park because of a tattoo? I found the tattoo very artsy! Now maybe the employee found it disturbing because maybe she was brought up on different values and I know there are people who think tattoos are just disturbing and disgusting. I think the employee was out of line, was not professional and im sure she did not think of what the out come of her actions could be. She then had the nerve to try and sell her a shirt for 5 bucks? Really? Also read some of these comments that people are posting on the news article. I think majority are middle schoolers in a current event class.
