Howsabout the Amish?

Can you certify that there are no guns in Amish communities? Can you prevent
me from taking a gun into an Amish community?

No, but as I understand the Amish would rather throw themselves in front of
your bullets until you run out of ammo than become a gun culture themselves.

You merely demonstrate how little you understand, about the Amish or guns.

And frankly I don't think a lot of Amish are getting shot - by internal
shooters or external shooters.

Cites?

They aren't real big on tooting their own horn, I can't find much, just
stuff like
http://www.manythings.org/voa/00/001002tia_t.htm which I would not offer as
evidence of anything.

But I don't want to seem as though I was offering myself as an expert on the
Amish, it was intended as humorous since I assumed everyone would share a
knowledge of the stereotype of the Amish as a non-violent community.
