A Michigan Amish family’s horse and buggy was stolen from outside a Walmart while they shopped over the weekend, police said.

The family – who have not been named publicly – were inside the store’s Sturgis location around 5:30 p.m. Saturday when the suspect made off with their transportation, the Sturgis Department of Public Safety said.

“The victims had gone shopping at Walmart and came out to find their horse and buggy stolen,” the official statement read.

“A truck driver, parked in the Walmart lot, had seen a female steal the buggy…Police had contact with the suspect earlier in the day at Walmart,” it continued.

It is not clear exactly why police previously dealt with the suspect.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address

  • The problem with everything is they try and make it better without realizing the old way is fine.

Still, A KIA is easier to steal.
You don’t become cooler with age but you do care progressively less about being cool, which is the only true way to actually be cool.

Unless it is your prime mode of transport and you consider a new one can easily cost nine grand.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.
