    The Amish are probably one of the last groups that one would expect to indulge in this sort of behavior. I have a high regard for the Amish, but not for any sect that behaves like this. A number of us come down hard on Islamic sects that behave this way and we should do the same with ANY sect that acts like this.

    Great cooks but seeing as how it's rare to catch them outside of their settlements it makes it hard to comment on if this kind of behavior.

    Beard cutting and hair cutting, while still assault, are not the equal of beheadings, torture, and terrorism.

    True, the worst of these Amish offenders are infinitely better than the Islamic kooks we have been looking at for some time, but still this is assault.

    He still called it assault and he was completely correct that it isn't quite the same as beheadings. Hair and beards will grow back, your head won't. :roll:
