I know so many people who are strong #2A advocates. Without exception, I have not seen any of them on this or any other social media complaining about the US citizen who had a concealed carry permit being hauled away. I can't "qwhite" put my finger on why that might be.

She is Mennonite (conservative, but not Old Order, and not Amish, so the driving is fine. The phone is likely OK too, probably just phone and text, no internet. Of course, in PA, she is doing something illegal for everyone, not just Anabaptists!
Some might say you were a Witness of sorts
I just saw an Amish woman driving while talking on the phone, like holding the phone up to her ear and talking. I don’t think she’s supposed to be doing either one of those things. Is there like a number I can call to report her? I guess not because I guess they can’t maintain a call center.

Anneken Jansz, burned to death in 1571, said, "Do not regard the great number nor walk in their way…but where you hear of a poor, simple, cast-off little flock, which is despised and rejected by the world, join them; for where you hear of the cross, there is Christ; from there do not depart." AMEN
