Thanks to Thompson & Knight for knowing a violation of the law when they see one.
Thanks to Deb for the heads up.
Welcome to The World's Most Dangerous Beauty Salon, Inc.
My name is Susan DuQuesnay Bankston. I live in Richmond, Texas, in the heart of Tom DeLay's old district. It's nuttier than squirrel poop here.
I am honored and privileged to know Miss Juanita Jean Herownself, hairdresser extraordinary and political maven. Since she does not have time to fiddle with this internet stuff, I type her website for her and you can read it if you want to. If you don't, she truly does not give a big bear's butt.
A lot of what I post here has to do with local politics, but you probably have the same folks in your local government.
This ain't a blog. Blogs are way too trendy for me. This is a professional political organization.
Well, I guess he’ll have time to practice shooting if he can afford the bullets. Do you think he refuses to wear ear protection when he’s shooting? That may explain some of his brain damage!

As U.S. meat workers fall sick and supplies dwindle, exports to China soar
Edit: Processors including Smithfield Foods, owned by China’s WH Group Ltd, Brazilian-owned JBS USA and Tyson Foods Inc temporarily closed about 20 U.S. meat plants as the virus infected thousands of employees, prompting meatpackers and grocers to warn of shortages. Some plants have resumed limited operations as workers afraid of getting sick stay home.
The disruptions mean consumers could see 30% less meat in supermarkets by the end of May, at prices 20% higher than last year, according to Will Sawyer, lead economist at agricultural lender CoBank.

He is one of tRump’s very fine people. May they never rest in peace.
3Can I refuse to wear shoes? They pinch my arthritic feet. I have a GD RIGHT to go barefoot in any establishment I want. It’s there in the constitution.
4I hope his former place of employment has good security. If he is disgruntled about masks. . . just saying.
5GOPrivation ~ The only thing we have to fear is… Not enough fear to go around! We have, however, been working on those entitlement cuts and PPE choke points from the get go!
6Well, he was partially correct:
Somebody reached their limit.
Somebody had more power than he did, and he just didn’t know it yet.
Hope Kevin Bain saved his $1200 check. He’ll be needing it.
7My daughter, a registered nurse, has been warned not to stop on her way to work because of people’s reaction to scrubs. A fellow RN was harassed at a supermarket for wearing a mask.
As for me, I will wear a mask in public, and warn non-maskwearers to stay at least six feet from me. I will consider those who do not comply to be assaulting me, call 911, and prepare to defend myself. Of course, my martial arts instructors have all said the best defense lies in leaving the threatening situation.
8My memory must be failing, but wasn’t it common for many businesses to post signs reading ” WE RESERVE THE RIGHT TO REFUSE SERVICE TO ANYONE” ?
9I am yet to find the clause in the Construction that gives me the right to tell others how to operate their own business.
Can not a business beheld liable for allowing an unchecked danger to persist?
Karma is often very sweet.
10Let’s see you afford those Hornady hollow-points NOW, jerk-wipe.
11M, I hope they heard you. But I wonder if they had earlier pegged him as an unstable nut and perhaps were waiting for him to put a foot wrong. I’ve seen that happen more than once.
12The only problem is…HE’s not the one who dies because he didn’t wear a mask, I am.
I wear a mask out of consideration for others, not for myself.
Have a friend (a little bit of a thing) who was being harrassed by a guy apparently objecting to the mask she was wearing in the grocery – following her around less than a foot from her elbow. She finally turned around and yelled, “Are you shopping from my f***ing shopping list?” Half the store applauded.
13I remember that, Cole. “No shirt, no shoes, no service” was another, and nobody offered to shoot the place up to get at the Moon Pies.
(You think Bain shops in a lot of “ghetto stores” with or without his Glock?)
14This may, or may not be related.
I was reading over at slashdot.org and, in addition to an article about super high resolution pictures of Jupiter (equivalent to being able to see distinct headlights on a car in Miami from NYC)^, there was an article about “Ex-Google employee James Damore has moved to dismiss his lawsuit against the internet giant two years after alleging discrimination against conservative white men.”^^. While going through the comments and links^^2 about the scientific studies which document the physical/physiological and psychological differences between men and women, I came across this odd fact: “Geographically, a 2016 review said that in the US, neuroticism is highest (in women) in the mid-Atlantic states and southwards and declines westward, while openness to experience is highest in ethnically diverse regions of the mid-Atlantic, New England, the West Coast, and cities.”^^^.
Which leads me to wonder, are women being driven to neuroticism by the nonsense that Red State men are subjecting them to?
Is the bovine scat of unsuitability for women in male dominated careers fostered by the toxic masculinity of said males in the industries?
And back to the topic of this article: What’s it going to take to pry open the minds that have death grips on weapons to understand that civility to everyone is to be the expected norm in society…

15So he thinks it should be his choice on whether to wear a mask. I wonder how he feels about a woman’s choice on whether to have a baby…
16@BFSMan #16 Probably about the same as he feels about his ‘choice’ to pay child support
17I’m part of the group he supervised. We never saw this coming. This is a side of him totally unknown to us, and we are all still trying to process this. I am grateful that the firm put safety first. Given these posts, how would he have behaved when we all have to go back into the office and might all have to wear masks? Nevertheless, I am sad and I will miss the person I knew. I am glad he will not be back at work and I hope he does some serious assessment of the direction in which he has steered his life.
