Second there is an easier way to handle this. Change the Amish a "City Slicker" tax that pays for street sweeper to run and and down the streets and clean up after the horses and other debris.
Now THIS is a trial I could get behind! Discussing the real issues here, folks!
They’re supposed to make them do that in front of city hall!

If they were homeless horses it would be OK.
“They believe the bags violate their community’s religious standards.”
Jail time may also violate their religious standards.
But their standards may have to change.
Those suspenders wearing buggy driving barn raising Amish terrorists! This is another reason why they must be put on a watch list! /s
If everybody in the community uses the bags, it’s not “putting on airs”.
These are old order Amish.Jail time does not bother them.
Put diapers on them race horses.
People could bet on which one fills the diaper first.
The amount of horseshit caused by these animals pales in comparison to the amount of bullshit generated by politicians every day.
Horses eat grass, so they defecate recycled vegetation.
It rains in Kentucky so it washes away.
What is the problem?
They are independent, religious, self-reliant people and must be punished.
Let’s get this straight.
Swartzentruber Amish reject technology such as motor vehicles and horse diapers, but do not reject technology such as a website to sell their quilts.

“They are independent...”
If they are so independent, why are they on the public street?
In San Francisco they would have had the horse manure bronzed and declared a city holiday.
Nobody escapes the emmission control nazis.
A 1,000 pound horse will defecate approximately four to thirteen times each day and produce approximately nine tons of manure per year. The 1,000 pound horse will produce, on the average, 37 pounds of feces and 2.4 gallons of urine daily, which totals about 50 pounds of raw waste per day in feces and urine combined.

Gardeners should pick it up - this stuff is valuable!!!!
and we can go on...
would a defecating illegal get charged?...never....
Let’s get something else straight: The Amish do not run their own websites. They hire “the English” to do their technology for them. It’s always helpful to know what you are talking about.
***If they are so independent, why are they on the public street?****
Better than being on the public dole!
What makes you think they don’t pay property taxes?
