Probably because the language makes them easily distinguishable as either tourists or Amish.

If you were replying to my post:
The Amish mostly descend from 17th century Germans and Swiss.
The Pennsylvania German spoken today by them still sounds like German and Swiss-German dialects.

I can even understand a lot that they speak.

Is that the one where the Amish kids leave the settlement and experience life outside and then decide whether to stay on the outside or return? That is a real practice. Not sure about the show though.

Tell her to keep her phone in her pocket while in in public/especially while on the subway. All the reports of theft come from people getting their phones/iPods snatched out of their hands mostly on the train/station. Be aware and she will be fine.
