Obviously it is more desirable for the gentleman to be dealing in drugs or ‘using’ the welfare system to earn a living.Lord forbid he actually works.A few years ago in Washington DC some ex-con went straight and after making some money he invested in shoe shine kits for the homeless to give them a chance to be independent and earn some money.Don’t you know that the powers that be passed laws AGAINST shoe shine street vendors because it was considered to be demeaning....I guess as opposed to standing on the corner in the rain with a cup in your hand bumming quarters...

neighboring business owners had complained about the barbershop, alleging people loitered outside Clippas at "various odd hours."Like 2pm on Monday?

Looks like Mr. Scott didn’t properly grease the authorities.

If there is any justice left, this citation will be thrown out and the ordinance stricken from the books.

Makes you wonder what sort of "businesses" the neighbors are running, doesn't it?

There is a Supercuts in that town. Think they are closed on Monday? I couldn’t find a schedule online at the Supercuts website.
I do know that it is traditional for babershops to be closed on Sunday AND Monday but I haven’t seen a blue law against cutting hair on MONDAYS.

My barber used to call Monday, "the barber's Saturday". One of his favorite sayings was,
"I work all day Saturday getting you guys ready to go to church on Sunday -- but on Monday, I have the lake all to myself"
And he had photos of big catches of huge crappie hanging in the shop as evidence...
Where I live now they work on both Saturday and Monday,but, I still haven't figured out the barbershop hours. I generally just drive by the shops until I catch one standing behind his chair...

Hey, I was just following orders...

Yep, I remember from the late 50’s and early 60’s when the barber’s union really had a hold on the profession in Mass.

You’ve never been to Louisiana, have you?

If the city ordinance really violates a federal law and this barber gets himself a good lawyer, the idiots who run the city amy very possibly come to rue the day they tried this idiotic strong-arm tactic against a regular businessman.

Me? Yup, born and reared there. Escaped when I was 24 and once my parents pass on, I won’t ever go back.

I was being sarcastic, but you know what I’m talking about.
My grandparents lived there until I was 14, then got out immediately after their retirement.

Uh huh. Corruption is a way of life there. I am sure that this “citation” has more behind it than violation of some obscure ordinance.
