Full disclosure: my wife and I regulars at this salon. We went in on Friday, and the account above is 100% mine. They went above and beyond to ensure the safety of the patrons, and no one in the building while we were there appeared sick or seemed otherwise concerned for their safety. The majority of them, my wife and I included, were wearing some type of face covering and maintained the appropriate distance from one another.

This is a serious overreach by local law enforcement, IMO. DeSantis has made no announcements above forced closure remaining in place, and there even stories in the local media of establishments such as gyms re-opening despite the lack of guidance on the part of our state government. We are a relatively small town about 50 miles north of Tampa, and in Hernando county specifically, there have been fewer than 100 reported cases. Hernando county is a majority farmland, and most of us have gone about our business normally since all of this hullaballoo started.

I hope the Hernando county sheriff is forced to answer for this, and whoever called in the complaint should be ashamed of themselves. This is a small business just trying to get their people back to work. They went above and beyond to ensure patron safety, and shutting them down is tantamount to petty tyranny IMO.

DeSantis met with salon owners, barbers, nail parlor folks, etc. today in Tallahassee. I think they’ll be open soon and anybody who opened earlier won’t have a problem.

” the Hernando county sheriff “

Hope all you want. In the meantime, start a recall movement. Throw the SOB out. His position is not hereditary. Along with that, advocate zeroing out his budget and going to a citizen self protection regime.

Obviously having this oaf around is counterproductive: why are his “deputies” doing this instead of protecting private property and preventing violence?

American police are FBI wannabes...they desperately want to be held in the same contempt.
