Man killed in Amish tomato-tossing prank

[Joker]

....Keim was with about 10 other members of the Amish community, ages 15 to 23. The group told the sheriff's office they had been throwing tomatoes and firing paintball guns at passing vehicles.......



Ummm perhaps if they had electricity and $hit they would have seen the spread on the idiot who got shot for firing paintballs at people. I guess the Amish will chalk this up as lesson learned. Yes it is sad that a dude died but why didn't they jsut target their own buggies and not cars? They knew they were trying to hit an "outsider". It is hard to lose control of a buggie vs a car with paint balls all over the windshield. Always thought it was interesting that it was ok to have buggies but a sin or it is wrong to have a car????? Fruit loops if you ask me. I loved the movie King Pin, can't remember if they were Amish or Quakers....time to earn the rent! I died laughing when he came out and said he milked the cow and he had a white ring around his mouth and the Amish dude said we aint got no cow, we got a bull.

Do these yahoos even serve our Armed Forces? If they don't, ship them to France along with the JH's!

What kind of moronic town considers lobbing tomatoes at moving cars an acceptable "tradition" anyway. That shit can kill people too. If one or more of those things hits a windshield and the driver can't see or is startled they could crash their car and die. I don't think the guy deserved to die, but the whole event was just a ticking timebomb. The motorist did declare his intentions on more than one occasion. Seems it's as much their own fault as it is the shooter. Just Darwinism in action. A little clorine for the gene pool.

I think that idiots that shoot paintballs at passing cars *should* be shot. I don't throw shit at anyone else, and they should return the favor. And a 23 old throwing tomatoes at cars? Amish or not: loser.
