    What's funny is that they didn't even get their "hate speech" term right. Some people (in jest) are referring to it as "Kung FLU" mot "Kung F U".

    Bruce Lee is probably turning over in his grave about now ;-)

    Not in the South. Most barbers/hairdressers/etc. run their businesses out of their homes around here. Our cops are busy with real crime, not honest hard working folks trying to make ends meet.

    Also, work for cash on the downlow. Screw the guvment. There isn't a DOT or FMCSA for getting a haircut that I know of. Yet another symptom of too many people getting in other people's business.

    We called those people snitches in the neighborhood I grew up in CA.

    Imagine that here in the good 'ole USA. People snitching on their neighbors via an "anonymous" hotline. All for wanting to get a haircut or their nails done.

    ME thinks we've pretty much driven over the cliff in this country.

    This virus is very smart.

    It can tell the difference between a liquor store or an auto parts store, and a barber shop or hair stylist shop.

    Amazing little bug...

    If it bothers you that much you should move, by staying you accept it.

    Everybody gotta do what they gotta do...

    There is no one size fits all approach, that's for sure.

    TN, AR, AL, MS, KY, GA and everywhere else I've been for the last 30 years. Tons of ladies running hair shops out of their front room, back room, side room, portable building sitting next to the house, you name it. It's just common practice here. Have they stopped altogether since Covid-19? I doubt it.

    It is a quintessence of being a snitch.
    Especially now, when everyone is moving as they please. Chicago traffic is as usual, despite official lock down.
    I guess they are butt hurt for not being able to work while others can.
     
    RERM and Scooter Jones Thank this.

    If reading about it bothers you so much, maybe you should ignore my posts. Kind of like I'm going to ignore anything more you have to say on the subject.
