As many as 14 armed Orange County deputies, including narcotics agents, stormed Strictly Skillz barbershop during business hours on a Saturday in August, handcuffing barbers in front of customers during a busy back-to-school weekend. [More]Customers happy? Check.
Citizens employed and contributing to the local economy? Check.
Master infuriated because he didn't give permission? Check.
Securing the blessings of liberty, "Only Ones"-style.
Plus, it's a lot more of a sure thing they'll make it home at the end of their shift!
Those minorities holding scissors are damned lucky they didn't make any false moves. And the ones who held still while cuffed are even luckier.

With apologies to Douglas Adams and "Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, "42" is no longer the answer to everything.
"An armed raid" is.
"recent raids on local barbershops, putting barbers in handcuffs as they check their licenses"
I'm glad they're checking for proper licenses... you never know when one of those barbers might be walking around with an un-registered set of assault clippers...

Ah, good of you to accord Defender for this; good of you to include this.
Now, how many of you have read the comments? Yes, boys & girls, there are still those who would look the other way or justify what happened, all in the interest of public safety.
Don't you feel safer, now?
