You remember the Amish beard attack story from last month, right? Of course you do. Everyone in the world was fascinated with the Mullet family and their follicle clipping antics against other Amish folks in Ohio that had shunned them. The breakaway group chopped beards and hair in a fit of religious justice, and then they were arrested. Fun times.
19 Action News says word out of Jefferson County is there’s been another attack.
This time an Amish man in Bergholz, the same locale as the five members of the “Bergholz clan” who were behind the previous incidents, got his parents to come down from Michigan. When they arrived, he held down pops and cut off his beard.
The parents are refusing to press charges, so there’s nothing the Jefferson County Sheriff can do at this point.

Forget trying to find a good job in Cleveland…start running guns to these folks. There are truly some Hostile Amish (pun intended) out there! Whatta sick state of affairs in a sick state.

I think that any thing which is used to separate one from another will one day need to be corrected..whether it is one culture, religion, club, country,class, race–our destiny is unity and our purpose here is to learn that it is unity which is the love which holds the universe together. If thought is energy and energy can not be created or destroyed, why is it so hard to connect and conduct people? Unity is Love; separation is fear. Two emotions are all there is: Love and fear. Each thought is chosen based upon this simple reality.
