I live in a small village that has many Amish communities around it. I'm sure many of you that live in other countries don't know about our "Plain" people. I so enjoy sitting on my porch and seeing them go by in their buggies....

The Amish are Rioting On Washington!

ParaTed2k @ParaTed2k (22940) • Sheboygan, Wisconsin 31 Jan 11

The rioters in Egypt amount to about 0.3% of the population of that country. This would be about the equivalent of every Amish man, woman and child rioting on Washington, demanding a change of government, with no input from the...
