EVIL Amish beard cutting ringleader to be sentenced.

Ringleader, family members face sentencing for beard-cutting attacks on fellow Amish in Ohio  Published February 08, 2013
Associated Press    CLEVELAND –  Prosecutors hope for a life prison term when a judge in Ohio sentences the ringleader in beard- and hair-cutting cutting attacks on fellow Amish.
Sixty-seven-year-old Samuel Mullet Sr. and 15 members of his extended family face sentencing Friday in Cleveland federal court.
The 10 men and six women were convicted last year in five attacks in Amish communities in 2011.
 
The government says the attacks were retaliation against Amish who had defied or denounced Mullet's authoritarian style. Mullet calls it an internal faith matter that didn't rise to a hate crime.
Mullet's attorney asked for a sentence of two years or less.
Amish believe the Bible instructs women to let their hair grow long and men to grow beards once they marry. Cutting it would be offensive to Amish.

they should let the victims decide
what to do.
they'd probably just blow it off anyway.
i would think a light work over with
a nicely grained axe handle would work,
but it wasn't me that was wronged.

A professor who works with the Amish said they were not true Amish, but a cult.http://freethoughtblogs.com/singham/2013/02/08/ohio-amish-beard-cutters-sentenced/?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Feed%3A+freethoughtblogs%2Fsingham+(FTB%3A+Mano+Singham)freethoughtblogs.com/.../ohio-amish-beard-cutters-sentenced/?...

Longer than a murder sentence for forcibly cutting folks hair? Boy oh boy it sucks to be amish these days. A guy about 5 miles away beat his wife to death with a table leg a few years back because she was going to leave him since he wouldn't work. He is doing 7 years.
