You're denying what Esh's own lawyer stated in the article? "A lot of the breeders are Amish..."

Honestly Goldi, I think you'd defend an Amishman/woman of practically anything, simply because they were Amish. You would never extend that kind of latitude toward someone of any other religious persuasion. You're just as biased as people who are prejudiced against the Amish. Your bias clouds your judgement.


I don't think she was defending anyone, just asking again to keep the religious affiliation out of it.

Of course, I took Shoganai's "friend" post at face value, so...

Which would be difficult, because Mr. Esh's own lawyer played that card, but I see your point.

I do not defend abuse of animals. If the puppy millers were any other religion, religion wouldn't be a factor.

Once again the issue gets side tracked, into stereotyping and attacking a religion.

Wrong again Goldie
You have been an apologist for the ugly acts of Mennonites and Amish on this site since you have been here-
You, maam, are a 'troll' as well

Obviously it takes a troller to know one. As if this statement isn't trolling!

I'm with Goldie on this one the religion of the perp doesn't need to be added to the rants and ravings against this person. Arguments are more credible with out that added to them.

Same with the child killer out in CA. They kept adding Sunday School teacher to her description from the papers to the tv news reports. Why was that necessary? Are we to think that all SS teachers molest young children and stuff them into their luggage? So now we are to believe that all plain sects treat their animals cruelly? They don't you know. But you wouldn't know it by the rants and ravings of the anti-mill folks.
