Marion Posted April 29, 2017 Share Posted April 29, 2017 I found this interesting. Coming soon to NYS? One could argue that it is an infringement on your rights. Personally I say F*ck You. Your picture is being taken whether you like it or not. If I need my picture taken so should you!Sent from my SM-G935V using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ATbuckhunter Posted April 29, 2017 Share Posted April 29, 2017 So what would you say to an amish man who wanted to get a gun license, but also can not have his picture taken? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's essentially what a burka is if used for nefarious reasons. An ID card without a photo is not actually an ID card. This is precisely what the gal in the video said at the end. Anyone wearing a burka and carrying a legal non-photo gun license in Canada has access to guns. Gee, I wonder what could go wrong with that.

I don't think there is a religion-based prohibition on the Amish having their pictures taken. I've personally taken many photos over the years in the sawmills I've done business with, and they're usually quite proud of their operations and the fact that someone would care to photograph them and their machinery.

Many Amish believe that posing for a picture is a graven image, which is why most community's do not take pictures. They do make a distinction between posing for a picture (like for a gun or drivers licence) and having one taken of them while working. I've also heard some believe pictures steal souls or something along those lines. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Side note I do miss when they used to play surgeries on the channel on friday nights. That was always cool to watch and very educational Sent from my SM-G935V using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
