Pennsylvania’s governor doesn’t seem happy with Ben Roethlisberger’s haircut during pandemic
Fox 8 ^ | 5/19/20

(CNN) - The governor of Pennsylvania wants everyone - including the quarterback of the Pittsburgh Steelers - to adhere to guidelines around the coronavirus pandemic.

Even if that means skipping a haircut at a salon or barbershop.

During a briefing on Tuesday, Pennsylvania Gov. Tom Wolf was asked what he thought about Ben Roethlisberger recently getting a haircut and beard trim at a barbershop in the state.

“My concern is just a general concern,” Wolf said, not mentioning Roethlisberger by name. “Anybody who puts himself or herself into harm’s way is something that I think we ought to try to avoid. When you go to something like a barbershop and you’re not protected, I don’t care who you are, the chances of that virus actually wreaking havoc on your life increases.

“I don’t personally think any Pennsylvanian ought to take that chance. I certainly don’t want to take that chance myself.”

Okay. Does the barber wear protection. Most police don’t.

On the one hand, I think closing barber shops is stupid. Maybe Ben was supporting in a public way, reopening.

Someone is keeping Wolf's hair and beard neat and trimmed. Who is doing this?

Doesn’t exactly sound like he’s prepared to call out the National Guard to enforce his dictates, does he?

Hey Wolf! Put yourself in “harms way” by stuffing a loaded revolver in your mouth.

Those pics show a cold-eyed fanatic for whom it’s my way or the highway.

Wolf is a term-limited lame duck. The personal consequences for anything he does before leaving office are zero.

He can call out the National Guard and order live ammo issued, with no recompense.

Don’t know if you’re aware but we’ve already had a politician do this in Pennsylvania. R. Budd Dwyer.

Yeah, but what if he has a state police superintendent who says,

“Don’t worry, boss. Leave it to me, I’LL handle this! Those COVID scofflaws want war, they’ll GET war!! Arrests WILL be made and then they can tell it to the judge!!”

“Let them hate us as long as they fear us!”

The governor could never visit western PA again if he went after Ben.
