#2 Hmm. Five or so years ago I called the nearest barber shop and asked if he cut women's hair. "No." "Okay," I said, and went to the SuperCuts down the street(*). This was in Houston. He didn't give a religious reason. I don't think it occurred to me to sue.

(*) Whenever I go to one of those places, they always ask me how I want my hair cut. "Off," I say, which confuses them. Then I have to explain, "Make it exactly like it is, only shorter." I was hoping a barber would understand.

#3 Nice little barber shop you've got here. Be a shame if it burned down.

#4 I went to a Hair Salon, they trimmed my hair and beard, so what?

#5 There are some barbers that will not cut womens hair because they are not trained. Styling womens hair is very different than giving a buzz cut or a fauxhawk.

These guys are theocratic scum and should be taken out past the 200 mile limit and taught to swim home.

#7 "No right is absolute," said Hall. "So no right trumps another."

Nonsense, Ms Hall. Everybody knows that Muslim rights trump everything.
