Are the billboards lighted? Just curious.

Yep. But they're not owned or operated by Amish, so it's OK.

And can we now, PLEASE, stop calling urban negro thugs "Amish"?

Actually the meme that the "Amish did it" everytime there is breaking news of a new terrorist act or other atrocity is poking fun at the mainstream media reluctance to state the racial or religious identity of the perpetrators out of political correctness. Because the mainstream media obviously wished they could blame such act on a bunch of "white people" - we usually offer up the Amish as it exposes the ludicrousness of this mindset.

Years ago, there used to be a radio talk show in Boston that would regularly report on dog attacks by pit bulls. Enraged pit bull owners would always call in to protest that pit bulls were being unfairly maligned. So eventually the talk show host started substituting "golden retriever" every time he reported on another pit bull attack. Of course it was ridiculous to suggest that golden retrievers were actually behind these attacks and everybody knew what dog breed was actually getting referred to. The point was made and the reputation of golden retrievers was not harmed.

Would “Hutterite” be a better term?
