about as accessible as an amish virgin
Those of us who grew up in Central Pennsylvania, where the buggies and hex signs are regular sites on the roads, know this to be not quite as you might expect. At age 16, Amish children go through a "period" known as "rumspringa" (running around) where they are encouraged to experiment and live the modern lifestyle. This is considered both a test and a way to "get it out of their system" after which they either have to reform and accept the church's ways, or leave the commune and never return.
Not a bad idea, really, but it does sometimes lead to some things you wouldn't expect... Such as rampant drug problems and teenage orgies.
The amish virgin might be rarer than you'd expect, is my point I guess.

As far as London's bombings... What a terrible day.
All this violence (both ours and theirs) is terrible, disgusting, and sadly un-surprising. I imagine it all started when the first human learned to sharpen the first rock (or maybe even before). I hope Great Britan can steer past enacting some of the reactionary legislation we did here in the US, but I imagine the powers-that-be will use this
to justify whatever they want (even if it won't really help).
It just makes me sad.
