So? Yea, they have a different lifestyle than we have, but there is no reason for making a thread on how "weird" they look to society.
If you have ever talked to one in person, you would find they are very friendly people trying to live by what they feel is right.
Yea, they might not be right on their philosophies, but bud, respect that they have a different lifestyles and beliefs than you do. :confused:
I'm not calling them weird. But yes i think they look funny, but that is just my opinion. and if you don't think it's a little odd that people are still living how we lived 300 years ago, then that's a little strange. And i made this thread not because they are weird, but because these men made national news for getting a small ticket. I don't think this story would have gone national if they were not amish.

Yes 100% agreed. But, highly unfortunately, we still live in a society that discriminate others for not being the same. It's sad and pathetic amongst other things, and it's a trait that many many people possess wether it be intentional or through lack of social education. This kinda shite often stems back from parents and in the community.
Racism/discrimination is for fags, but I don't see the situation changing anywhere in the near future.
I don't think anyone is discriminating here. The cops gave them a ticket for not following laws. That seems fine to me. and i just think its funny how every one of them has a beard
