Religious discrimination exists, which is also a choice.
Just throwing that out there.
Religion is ideological, which is rather different to tattoos.

So what if the majority of customers wouldnt like being served by a person of a particular race or religion? Would it be ok not to hire anyone of the offending type?
But a turban can be a symbol of terrorism?
That's like saying, 'I don't want to leave my car with that guy because he has tattoos and he will possibly pee all over my car'.
Same 'I don't want to leave my car with that guy because he has a turban and will possibly strap a bomb to the bottom of it'

It is all about what the customer might think. Thats it. It doesnt matter if the customer is wrong - the customers perception is key. If 80% of your customers are bigotted morons who judge a book by its cover, you'll soon go out of business if you don't make attempts to tailor your services towards them.
It really is that simple.
I'd argue that all this customer perception being negative is made up, but we don't have any facts to support this. They are assuming most customers would be turned away, but you can't tell for sure.
I know bosses in multiple business sectors who couldn't care less if you had a tattoo and wouldn't agree it turns away customers, the same could be said for ones that do, but it's all personal opinion rather than any researched information. But I believe most people are more than that and don't care either, the ones that do aren't worth our time.
I also believe those who feel tattoos carry a bad image/association are poorly informed and are making a huge misjudgement, illogically; so yes that goes directly towards some people in this thread, but they are free to do as they want naturally.
