Here's the article, if anyone cares to read:

Obviously, someone shouldn't have been killed over it, but I'm curious why the Amish community seems to think it's ok for the kids to do this. They make it sound like it's a normal daily activity for the kids. Anyways, I thought it was an interesting article.

Thanks for this share Hillary ..
Have not heard about it ..quite surprised actually.
Didn't realize the Amish would think it would be ok ..
However how sad that someone had to be killed over the *prank* of kids ..
What's wrong with that picture :::sigh:::
Thanks again hon :)
~Hugs~
**Absolutely agree with you Barb ..
Nothing justifies deadly violence .. Sheesh ..
Raod rage is definitely way too popular ..
People need to calm down and smell the flowers :)

That is so sad. I was surprised to see that the Almish kids even threw the tomatos but that sure doesn't justify someone shooting at them. :::sigh:::
