Not Everyday You See Amish Mugshots
« on: September 17, 2011, 06:27:32 AM »

On Wednesday, we brought you the story of eight Amish men from Kentucky who were sent to jail this week over their refusal to comply with a local safety regulation.

They say that the mandate, which would require them to post a bright orange triangle on their horse-drawn buggies, violates their modesty code. (They reportedly use reflective tape instead, but that’s not good enough.)

Oh Ezeikiel, Zebulon, and Ishmael, have been very naughty boys.... Certainly some young (and old) ruffians up to no good shenanigans!

Thomas Jefferson: The strongest reason for the people to keep and bear arms is, as a last resort, to protect themselves against the tyranny of government. That is why our masters in Washington are so anxious to disarm us. They are not afraid of criminals. They are afraid of a populace which cannot be subdued by tyrants."

Yes, there are.  There are no tall men from Kentucky.

Doesn't matter.  The state that brought us Maker's Mark can do no wrong in my eyes.   ;)

Looks like a casting call for a new Lord of the Rings movie.

The state did not bring you Makers Mark, some person did. The state just locks you up for not having the proper sign on your buggy.
There are lot's of people here in KY that are really PO'd about this.

I would imagine the charges will be dropped. They have to use the orange triangles in Indiana also. Couldn't believe what I was reading at first about Amish being arrested. I don't understand why they just did not fine them and feel this does not warrant an arrest.  ???

It's simple really, these "right wing fanatics" have to be taught a lesson.
