Just saw a trailer for this particular reality show beginning sometime this month. Showed fully tatted, presumably Amish guys, with sawed off shotguns, molotov cocktails and taking baseball bats and fire to Amish horse buggies. Some footage of implied inferences of Amish buggy pirating, as well. I was laughing at first but it didn't come across as some kind of comedy sitcom.
Please tell me this is some kind of reality TV joke. If not a joke, does anyone know of this so-called Amish Mafia and how come I never got the memo?

None of it seemed serious to me.

You might want to consider deleting your post. They are some bad SOB's and you don't want a tattoo of this being the last thing you ever see....

I haven't seen this one yet. A Amish friend of mine was at the house last week and we were talking about some of the other so called 'reality' TV shows that were Amish themed. He just shook his head. He had seen some clips from a few and had read articles about them.
None of these are people in these shows are really Amish - at least that is his take on it. I can't recall which show it was, but he claimed that one of the 'actors' had left the Amish years before, but on the show it was portrayed as if it were a very recent occurrence. Most of them are just typical reality TV BS

See how they cleverly disguise their turbans. I knpow what's really inside those fireplace set-ups!
This isn't good. Taliban won't be infiltrating the US from Canada and Mexico. They'll be coming in through Lancaster Pa.

I had better be careful, there is a community nearby. Don't want to end up sleeping with the cows.
