I live in St Lawrence Co NY which I believe has the largest or one of the largest Amish populations in the state. They've been here since the late 70's, I got here in 95. I've been running the roads here in the middle of the population and I've seen very little in the way of damage to the roads other than the scuffing that leaves the "white marks" on the roads. I've had to arrest exactly 1 Amish man while I was working, but I did investigate several English on Amish rapes and one abduction of an Amish woman by an English guy. I've seen people treat the Amish like dirt, throw beer bottles at the buggies and hit people, scare Amish kids walking to school, pass as close to the buggies as they could as fast as they could and I've seen drunks kill Amish. I wasn't at the scene of one fatal, but it was reported to me that the County DA refused to pursue charges against the driver that killed an Amish kid because "Amish don't vote". You get a few years of that crap under your belt and every time you see some garbage about how bad the Amish tear up roads, while ignoring what the huge liquid manure trucks and tractors do, not to mention the 102K lbs trucks running the roads all day...well, you gotta call a spade a spade.
I also had to tell an Amish guy my daughter was not interested in him hanging around. I've had to chase them down for money owed me too. They aren't saints as I said, but like blacks, hispanics, gays, whites, indians and every other group you can think of there is good and bad. I have a LOT more trouble from English mutts on ATVs and in hot cars around me than Amish.

In the early 1950s my father bought an Allis Chalmers B and I used it for all the row crop work with the mangolds and potatoes, rolling and the haymaking on our farm. The farm and the Allis were sold and I have spent a lifetime working on farms throughout the country. I promised myself that one day I would own an Allis. That time event
