I'm talking about cities, where there are wheelchair users.

I was just thinking that wheels would be better anyway. Not only would they be more stable, but they would force more city planners to consider wheelchair movement.

You seem to not have read my entire comment. CROWN Acts only exist in 14 states, meaning most of the country can still discriminate based on hair. Try again.

All races are equal in value, but hair types are observably not the same.

You would think, but that doesn't make it true.

No, but hair discrimination STILL EXISTS today. Did you know that only 14 states in the US have laws (often known as the CROWN Act) that officially ban discrimination against natural hairstyles and 15 more are even considering passing CROWN Act legislation?
Even then, unconscious bias is still going to exist. There are still going to be hiring managers who don't perceive natural hair in Black women as being "professional" or even attractive. That is going to influence who they hire and they may pass a Black woman with natural hair for a Black woman with chemically straightened hair.
Our actions don't exist in a vacuum, and you cannot pretend that there will be no residual effects from centuries of discrimination just because legislation is passed.

Society will need to stop forcing European beauty standards first, especially hiring managers. I promise that the culture of using relaxers didn't pop out of a vacuum.

If you mean "earlier in life" as " starting in middle school", then yes, they do.

That's not necessarily true. Many hair colleges don't really go over Black hair, so Black women are more likely to go to Black hair salons, where the hairdressers are well acquainted with their hair texture.
Many White and Asian hairdressers will not necessarily know how to style their hair texture without them already having straightened hair first.

The African hair market is different from the European hair market. The products you're thinking of are different and have nothing to do with treatments that would be applied to African hair. Relaxers, for example.

I'm not sure about Latine hairdressers, but Black hairdressers are exposed to more dangerous chemicals and at a more frequent rate.

Reply to comment by Haterbait_band in Humans are leading source of death for California mountain lions, despite hunting protections by marketrent
Rabbits are not a good food source for mountain lions, but there are options. Colorado is currently working with livestock managers after wolves were reintroduced to the area. One option is to reimburse any livestock lost to wolves.
Nothing can really be done about pets except to keep them under supervision. Even if you live in an area with no large predators, you need to watch your pets anyway (heck, my dog got dangerously close to a deer once, which could easily trample her).
