The ringleader in hair- and beard-cutting attacks on fellow Amish in Ohio was sentenced Friday to 15 years in prison and 15 family members received sentences of one year to seven years.

Gee...15 years for cutting beards, and Democrat big-shot John Corzine is still walking free, after stealing more than a billion dollars from investors at MF Global.

What’s wrong with our “justice” system?

Amish jokes aside, 15 years? For organizing a conspiracy for cutting beards against those who dared defy his authority? The punishment far exceeds the crime, and the laws used to prosecute far exceed legal authority.

He created a gang to go out and cut beards. 15 years in prison? Under the guise of protecting religious rights? This is a travesty for the justice system.
