Majority of Voters Want Immigration Halted, More Hispanics Support Moratorium Than White People

A North Carolina tattoo shop owner was arrested on Wednesday for defying the state's stay-at-home order and opening for business.

Meyers told The News and Observer that he knew he would be charged, but hopes that his defiance of the order will inspire more small business owners to do the same.

"You can arrest one person, but you can't arrest all these people."

"If people are willing to take the risk," Meyers said, "It's their body and their choice."

A hair salon owner in the state is also planning to reopen on Thursday, ignoring the state's orders.

Jessica Wesley, owner of The Room hair salon in Roxboro, said that she has already booked appointments for when she opens the doors.

"I'm not a big fan people telling me what to do," Wesley told local station ABC11.
