WHAT About The Fact That The U-Religious Amish/Mennonite Communities Are The More Moral/Law-Abiding Citizens

The Amish also don't believe in education, at least beyond a 5th or 6th grade level, ascribe to uber-traditional gender roles, won't use zippers because you can whip your dick out too fast (it's sinful to be hasty about such things), and a multitude of other such nonsense. Not exactly the pinnacle of culture.
What about the beard shaving incidents about a year or so ago? Where one group of Amish attacked another, holding the men down and shaving off their beards (an act of humiliation, as all men are supposed to have facial hair). They were arrested for it. If I remember correctly, the offending Amish group, was defended by those they disgraced by shaving. Also, the Amish are mistrustful of police and are likely to underreport crimes.
