This story's circulating widely among conservative circles and hit mainstream media sources and I don't understand the outrage - https://www.cnn.com/2020/05/06/us/shelley-luther-dallas-salon-owner-jailed-trnd/index.html

TL;DR - Some deranged Karen disobeyed lockdown orders in Texas and prematurely re-opened her nail salon business and knowingly broke the law. When put in front of the judge, this lady directly said to the judge that she would continue to operate her business despite the lock down orders and therefore she was put in jail.

The argument the lady makes to the judge during her hearing as to why she should be able to operate her business and not wait a few more days until she can legally re-open is that the lady needs to "feed her kids" and that her employees apparently need to feed their kids.

I have not seen such utter bullshit in my entire life. This lady's kids aren't starving, she's pandering to people's emotions and knows exactly what she's doing. She put on a publicity stunt, knowing it would go viral, and now the right wing circle are throwing money at her in a gofundme which has nearly half a million dollars -- all to someone who did this debacle on purpose for public attention.

This story seems to shed light onto the bigger issue of re-opening. Governors should be the one to ease restrictions, not small business owners breaking the law by opening prematurely and then putting law enforcement officers in a shitty situation including judges that are forced to comply with the law.
