Coatesville Dems: One of my earliest memories is of a horse laboriously pulling an Amish farmer’s wagon coming from the farmer’s market on Fleetwood Street up Blackhorse Hill Road. My son knows a man who has had COVID twice. What works is vaccinations.

Public Corruption in Chester County, PA

I believe an unlikely mix of alleged drug trafficking related politicos and alleged white nationalist related politicos united to elect the infamous “Bloc of Four” in the abysmal voter turnout election of 2005. During their four year term the drug business was good again and white nationalists used Coatesville as an example on white supremacist websites like “Stormfront”. Strong community organization and support from law enforcement, in particular Chester County District Attorney Joseph W. Carroll has begun to turn our community around. The Chester County drug trafficking that I believe centers on Coatesville continues and I believe we still have public officials in place that profit from the drug sales. But the people here are amazing and continue to work against the odds to make Coatesville a good place to live.

One of my earliest memories is of a horse laboriously pulling an Amish farmer’s wagon coming from the farmer’s market on Fleetwood Street up Blackhorse Hill Road. My son knows a man who has had COVID twice. What works is vaccinations.

Betsy taught 3rd grade in rural Lancaster County. Several of her students were Amish.

Betsy’s maternal side of the family are the King’s. King could be a Mennonite name.

When my son was little he looked like an Amish boy.

A Mennonite friend of Betsy was married. The only thing unusual, music entirely a cappella. It was nice.

“I just think the Plain community has to get involved in a public-health sense,” said Morton, founder of the Central Pennsylvania Clinic in Belleville, Mifflin County.
Morton, who first created the Clinic for Special Children in Strasburg, is renowned for his pioneering work on genetic diseases among Plain children.
“Just because you’re Plain doesn’t mean you’re exempt,” Morton said. “God helps those who help themselves.”
