Just because a person belongs to a religious sect doesn't make them a Christian or above criminality. The love of money is the root of all evil! This really isn't that hard to believe.
I live in Kentucky and at the peak of our "down home meth cooking" epidemic, now our meth comes from Mexico after 30 year prison sentences for cooks and stricter Sudafed purchase laws, I noticed a strange phenomenon. What I noticed was Amish buggies out on the road at 2 or 3 in the morning. Me and my husband used to laugh and say those must be the Meth Amish. There was definitely something strange about them out late like that. This was like 2007, 2009. We haven't seen them out like that in a long time. Being farmers, they would have easy access to anhydrous ammonia, a key ingredient in meth cooking. I don't know if they were cooking themselves or just selling anhydrous to others. I never knew any to be charged. It's been years since I saw them out like that at night. After seeing this, it really makes me think it wasn't just a joke.
I'm picturing the Mennonite kingpin in his bed at night when he hears "clomp ...clomp.....clomp.... NEEEIIIGH" and yells to his wife: "hit the floor - it's a drive-by!!!!"
12:00 We don't drink. I live in Eastern New Mexico, and I've see the Mennonite ladies here stocking up on hard liquor. I'm sure it's for the fruitcakes.
