From a recent (yahoo) news story, “Amish farmer says milk law opposes beliefs” by Joe Milicia (AP), Wed Jun 28, 2006:

MOUNT HOPE, Ohio - Arlie Stutzman was busted when an undercover agent bought raw milk from the Amish dairy farmer in an unlabeled container. Now, Stutzman is fighting the law that forbids the sale of raw milk, saying he believes it violates his religious beliefs.

“While I can and I have food, I’ll share it,” said Stutzman. “Do unto others what you would have others do unto you.”

What! How DARE these Amish provide milk to just anyone who wants it? FREE of any government regulation?! Have they no sense of authority?

Everybody knows that unless milk is government-approved, it is evil and dangerous. I’m glad our government is protecting people against this sort of thing. These Amish are out of control and what is that “do unto others” stuff? that sounds commie to me? or anarchist? or something islamic terrorists might say?
