Demonstrators in Michigan gathered for "Operation Haircut," the latest in a string of protests against the state's stay-at-home order.
Hundreds of protesters turned out Wednesday to protest Michigan's stay-at-home order — and get free haircuts.
Several barbers were in attendance, giving free trims to demonstrators. Some of the barbers and protesters were not wearing face coverings. Many of the demonstrators also stood within 6 feet of one another as they waited for their cuts. "All individuals engaging in haircuts are being educated on the law," the police tweeted."Those who do not comply will be cited for disorderly conduct. All citations will be forwarded to the AG’s Office for review."Whitmer recently extended her stay-at-home order until May 28. She said Tuesday that it was unlikely barbershops and hair salons would be given the greenlight to open anytime in the near future.
The event was organized by the Michigan Conservative Coalition, which said it was inspired by a barbershop owner whose license was suspended for refusing to close his shop. The barber, Karl Manke, attended the protest and was cutting hair.
