With the bars in Texas once again shut down in an effort to try and stem the spread of COVID-19, the management at Caven Enterprises chose to board over the windows of JR’s Bar & Grill, in the interest of security.
The large windows in the bar located right at the corner of Throckmorton and Cedar Springs Road have always given patrons inside a grand view of the fabled Crossroads ( the intersection at the heart of the Dallas LGBTQ community). But with the bar shut down, those same windows become a prime target for troublemakers. In fact, during the first shut down, someone shot one of those windows with a BB or pellet gun. Thus — the choice to board them up.
But today, Porter and Mary added a little pizzaz by painting peace signs, rainbows and #BlackLivesMatter messages on the boards covering the windows, bringing more color and life back to The Strip.

Oh the irony………. They boarded up the windows to keep the BLM fools from looting and/or burning down the bar, only to paint BLM on the building.
Boarding up the windows had nothing to do with Black Lives Matter. They boarded up the windows to protect against jackasses who think its funny to drive around and shoot at windows with pellet guns.
Black Lives don’t matter it matters to God and Jesus mom dad kids it don’t matter to racism when someone will lie and black mail you Black Lives don’t matter my cousin got done dirty
