To me it is a matter of religion. I see the purpose of my life in not
using shitty "modern" technology, and I am ready to die for my cause and
to shed the last drop of my blood on the battlefield for it. But all you
miscreants who are busy making the world unfit for me to live in, I will
NOT give up without a fight! I have guns, and I *WILL* shoot at least
a bunch of you before I go down. Heck, my philosophy is that if I kill
at least ONE miscreant before I die, I will not have lived my life in
vain.

Maybe you'd be better off not hanging out on a mailing list full of

fluids or something.

Just a quick note -- the real Amish are pacifists, and don't believe in
warfare. I am pretty sure they'd be mightily offended by you using their
name.

Without considering the 'ethics' of the situation, it seems a pretty
safe bet this particular usage will never be found out... what with
the chosen medium and all.
