I don't know about specific designs and styles but I went to the salon across from the Walmart on Independence and they did perfect French nails. It took forever and they paid a TON of attention to detail to get it perfect. I was very impressed.

My wife loves Kiss Nails on S Campbell across from Westlake Ace Hardware and my step daughters like Hannah’s at Battlefield and National next to the AT&T store.

I don’t know what kinda techniques and designs you’re looking for but both of them have come home with some really nice looking hand done designs.

It isn't really the shooting range that makes it trashy, it's the fact that it's only 25 minutes away and a straight shot off of the highway so it draws lots of crowds of people who are looking for something with easy access. It's been trashy for decades, and I would wager a lot of those people don't even know it extends to the west and has a shooting range. If you want something less sketchy and close I'd recommend Sac Woods or Pleasant Hope up 13, or Compton Hollow out east by Northview. They're smaller but they're closer and less crowded and way less chewed up. In fact I can say from personal experience that PH has never had any issues with nazis or otherwise unsavory types and until a couple of years ago they also had an unsupervised shooting range.

Also fyi the Frisco is only paved up to Willard and in Bolivar, so if you drive another 8 miles or so down 160 from the Kearney trailhead it's unpaved for the next 20+ miles.

You might wanna work on that.

And yes, I agree that you can’t spend your whole life worrying about every little thing.

But when others are worrying about something that matters, don’t butt in and nay say. Understand that even if you don’t personally care, it’s still worthwhile, and if you can’t be supportive then at least be silent. Why on earth would you be in here criticizing people that are trying to take down nazi advertising?

I do care about things. But stickers are the least of my worries.

If I cared about what every single person did online or in real life, I’d probably lose my mind. Much like the people who make politic topics their entire personality and life. They live a pretty miserable existence policing everyone 24/7.

But hey, at least you are paying attention. Most people don’t understand it’s useless trying to argue with me 😁

I guess there’s no point debating about something mattering with a nihilist right?

I will just say your idea of social responsibility is, in my view, anemic. You benefit from the actions and intuitions of others who have a better civic sense than you. I guess that’s as it should be.

I also don’t think I it is accurate or true that out of the, probably, thousands of fascist surges that have taken place across the countries of the world in the last century, that it was the far left that did the work to quash those. It’s the average citizenry and standard institutions of a country, wherever they happen to fall on the political spectrum, that serve to keep those influences repressed. It’s not like everyone else could care less and it’s only these anarchist nazi-buster groups going around doing the work. I simply don’t think that’s historically accurate.

What I do think is historically accurate is that when a country becomes destabilized by radicalizing influences, the other radicalizing influences in the same country often become more extreme in response to that environment. But I’d say, again historically speaking, that rarely makes things better.

But clearly you aren’t a Dum Dum, and must have something in mind when you are saying these things. So maybe that would help me understand your position. Can you tell me what historical case you are thinking of where the average citizenry of a country shrunk away from standing up to fascism and it was left to the anarchist or other far left influences to save the day? The only such occurrences I can think of are times when the far left wing that took over turned out to be just as authoritarian and bad as what they supplanted, and nobody thinks of them as having saved the day in hindsight. As far as I’m concerned authoritarianism is the bad guy of the story of the 20th century and whether that authoritarianism wears a lefty or a righty coat isn’t terribly relevant.

But I’ll wait for your examples you have in mind. Thanks.
