A wild report from the National Weather Service confirms that an Indiana Amish community that was hit by a tornado on April 2nd had already completed ALL of the roof repairs ON THE SAME DAY SO DAMAGE COULD NOT EVEN BE ESTIMATED BY THE NWS







Regulations ensure that this stuff can't happen outside of enclaves like that





Obligatory...

It’s their diversity that makes them so resilient

Watch “The Witness” with Harrison Ford and you will understand how that happens.

Probably didn't have to get any permits approved either by the local government

Amish near me, morning after a tornado a few weeks ago (this would be roughly 13 hours after the tornado)

Self insured can make things happen. Especially with a barn full of supplies.

We have a large Mennonite community not far from me in DeRidder and I have been around them as they own many businesses in the area. The boys will move to other Mennonite communities to work, but the real reason is to find a wife to avoid inbreeding. I am sure the Amish do this as well.

Some do, the more strict don't because there aren't nearly as many approved options. Stories and testimony of incest inside Amish communities are pretty common from those who leave. If a problem child is born it gets sent to another community to be raised, they cover up a lot.

Top Ten signs your Amish teen is in trouble:
10. Sometimes stays in bed till after 6am.
9. In his sock drawer, you find pictures of women without bonnets.
8. Shows up at barn raisings in full “Kiss” makeup.
7. When you criticize him, he yells, “Thou sucketh!”
6. His name is Jebediah, but he goes by “Jeb Daddy.”
5. Defiantly says, “If I had a radio, I’d listen to rap.”
4. You come upon his secret stash of colorful socks.
3. Uses slang expression: “Talk to the hand, cause the beard ain’t listening.”
2. Was recently pulled over for “driving under the influence of cottage cheese.”
1. He’s wearing his big black hat backward.

There’s a group of them that farmed in Oberlin a couple years ago. Very nice hardworking people. Not sure if they still do though
