There was that one woman who dared to open her salon so her employees could put food on their kids' table that was thrown in jail.

I think she's now running for office here in Dallas.

Excuse me, Prosper. She lives in Denton County.
Yeah, I forgot about that one but at least the Lt Governor told them to let her out.
It was the state supreme court who mandated she be released while they review the case. There is still a possibility she has to serve the remainder of the 7 day sentence for contempt of court. People keep saying it was Abbott who had her released, when he had nothing (at least officially) to do with it. I am unaware if he had any unofficial influence on the court's order.
He came out in support of her was my point.
You are correct, and even personally contributed enough to her gofundme to cover the fine issued by the judge.
It kind of made me proud to be in Texas.

Re: Woman tased at football scrimmage for not wearing a mask

I have always been a proponent of "take the ride" and fight it in court later. Cops are simply making an arrest for what they perceive as an arrestable violation of the law. But then one has to ask. What do we do when the same cops come to confiscate our firearms?
