Stag Barber Snohomish Washington
“They who can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety.” -Benjamin Franklin
Robert, or Bob Martin as we know him is the owner of The Stag Barber in Snohomish WA. He has served the United States with the Marine Corps and now cuts hair for those of us in Snohomish and the surrounding areas. For 51 years Bob has provided great haircuts for a more than reasonable, cash only price. Bob is an old school gentleman who embodies the classic small town values with his barbershop.
At a time where so many residents in Washington State are struggling to make ends meet (including Bob) he has taken the bold stand of defying Jay Inslee’s stay home order and opening his barbershop in order to continue paying the bills. Now he is facing the loss of his business license in response to taking a stand against the crippling blow he and so many other small business owners in this state are facing. NOBODY in this state should be denied the right to make a living based on evidence that doesn’t add up and arbitrary proclamations from a power hungry governor.
The Coronavirus pandemic is not to be taken lightly, I believe everyone understands that. However, the toll this is taking on small business owners in this state has to end. At a time when so many are stretched thin financially, asking for donations is a truly humble, hat in hand request. However, if you can spare anything, please do and help a small business fight for their right to continue operating as an inevitable legal battle unfolds.
Truly, thank you all.
